AYSO EPIC

Everyone Plays In our Community

AYSO EPIC (Everyone Plays In our Community) is AYSO's inclusive soccer program for children and adults with physical, developmental, or intellectual disabilities. EPIC ensures that every athlete can participate fully in the AYSO experience - from wearing a uniform and playing on a team to scoring goals and celebrating with family and friends.

The program provides the additional support players may need while keeping the focus on fun, belonging, and personal growth. EPIC is built on AYSO's Six Philosophies and is designed to create a safe, welcoming environment where players of all abilities can learn the game, build confidence, and be part of a community that celebrates their strengths.

EPIC also includes the support of EPIC Buddies, trained volunteers who assist players on the field, encourage participation, and help create a positive, social, and empowering experience for every athlete.

Formerly known as VIP, the program has been renamed EPIC, highlighting AYSO's belief that everyone deserves a place to play. The name is new, but the purpose remains the same: creating a supportive, fun soccer environment for athletes of all abilities.

Region 779's EPIC Program

AYSO 779's EPIC Program provides a quality soccer experience for children and adults whose physical, developmental, or intellectual disabilities make it difficult to participate on mainstream teams. EPIC focuses on fun, safety, and skill development while honoring each player's individual needs and abilities.

EPIC is open to players ages 4 and up, with no upper age limit, ensuring that children, teens, and adults all have a place to play.

Our program is built on AYSO's Six Philosophies and emphasizes a supportive, encouraging environment where every player can learn, grow, and enjoy the game.
