=AYSO Age Determination (Fall 2026 Season)=
AYSO uses a '''school-year registration system''' to place players in the correct division. Divisions are assigned by '''birth year''' using the window '''August 1 – July 31'''. A player remains in the same division for the entire membership year (Aug 1–Jul 31).

==How It Works==
#Find the player’s date of birth.
#Match it to the birthdate range in the chart.
#That division applies for the full membership year (Aug 1–Jul 31).
This system keeps players grouped by age in line with school calendars and U.S. Soccer standards.

==Notes for EXTRA, Alliance, and Competitive Teams==
*All players must meet AYSO’s age eligibility using the school-year matrix above.
*'''Playing down''' into a younger division is not permitted.
*'''Playing up''' may be considered only when developmentally appropriate and approved by the Region (and per any Area/Section rules).
*Alliance teams may follow league-specific labels, but AYSO registration and eligibility still use the same age matrix.
==Guiding Principle==
Age determination exists to create safe, developmentally appropriate playing environments that are consistent across AYSO.
