Mission Statement: The Missouri Youth Soccer Association is dedicated to promote, foster and perpetuate the game of soccer in the state of Missouri.
Missouri Youth Soccer Association is the state affiliate and member of U.S. Soccer and U.S. Youth Soccer. The Missouri Youth Soccer Association is responsible for implementing our affiliate’s programs, policies, and services for the state of Missouri. Members of Missouri Youth Soccer Association automatically become members of U.S. Soccer and U.S. Youth Soccer.
At its core, Missouri Youth Soccer Association’s (MYSA) mission is to provide children from all walks of life the opportunity to play and learn valuable life lessons from participation in the world’s most populous sport. MYSA strives to complete its mission through the fair and neutral administration of our member clubs, leagues, and tournaments.
MYSA is not a law enforcement agency. It has not been trained nor empowered to assist in the adjudication of immigration law by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) or any of DHS’ subordinate agencies tasked with enforcing immigration law. Although MYSA requires individuals interested in participating with its member organizations to conclusively prove their identities, MYSA (and its background check vendor) does not routinely disseminate collected information to law enforcement departments at any level. MYSA will follow all applicable statutes and will not share personal information with any law enforcement agency unless required to do so by law.
