VYSL Mission Statement
The purpose
of the Vacaville Youth Soccer League, Inc. (VYSL)
is to provide an organized program of
soccer, both recreational and competitive,
for the youth of Vacaville and the
surrounding areas, by teaching the laws and
techniques of the game in a comprehensive
and player-oriented manner. Children playing
soccer is the most important goal of this
league.
Fulfillment
of these goals is brought about by setting
an atmosphere of friendly competition in
which learning and playing soccer are held
foremost; anything that distracts from this
atmosphere is to be strongly discouraged.
Our bylaws are not meant to provide
technical points that will allow adult
participants to win games; this type of
conduct is not condoned nor permitted.
The by-laws
are instruments in which benevolent and
cooperative adults can build and maintain a
sporting environment in which children may
play the game of soccer. The concepts of a
supportive, player-oriented environment are
taken from the first page of the League’s
bylaws written in 1979 and which remain the
essence of the Vacaville Youth Soccer League
today.
From the
beginnings of the current VYSL in 1975,
soccer enthusiasts originally came together
to form a casual program for their children
to play soccer. The league grew to a point
where the necessity to affiliate with a
larger program to facilitate the needs of
the players lead to VYSL joining California
Youth Soccer Association – North and
incorporating as a 501-C3 non-profit
corporation in 1979.
Through the
years, VYSL has maintained the original
concepts that brought about its formation
and intends to continue these obligations in
the future.
