What is Barrington Youth Soccer Association (BYSA)?

Barrington Youth Soccer Association (BYSA) is a nonprofit governance organization that provides soccer opportunities for children starting at age 3, from recreational play through travel-level competition. Its website, barringtonyouthsoccer.com, is the hub for registration, game schedules, referee programs, and event announcements. If you are a Barrington-area parent looking for a youth soccer program, or a player or volunteer trying to find schedules and sign-up forms, this site is the starting point.

What BYSA offers

BYSA describes itself as bringing "support and soccer opportunities at all levels of the play to children starting at age 3." Its main programs include:

• Annual Tournament — a recurring club event.
• Recreational Level Leagues — the House League, organized by age and gender groups.
• Player Skills Clinics — supplemental training for players.
• Soccer Outreach Programs — community-focused initiatives, including an Adaptive Soccer Program that is seeking players and "buddies."

House League age groups

House League game schedules are posted by division:

The site also flags a New Age Group Transition beginning Fall 2026, described as "a nationwide change," with a Frequently Asked Questions page for details.

Registration status

Registration is not uniformly open across all programs. According to the site:

• House League and Mini Kickers registration is closed for YOB 2011–2019. Families in that birth-year range are directed to email [email protected] to inquire about availability.
• Mini Kickers registration for YOB 2020–2021 is still open.

Because availability can change, check the registration page or contact the registrar before assuming a spot is open.

Travel teams and affiliations

BYSA and Barrington Soccer Club are affiliated at the state level with Soccer Rhode Island (SRI) and at the national level with the United States Youth Soccer Association (USYSA). The Travel Team section of the site links to tryouts, schedules, and more.

Referee programs

BYSA runs two paths for young referees:

• House League Referee Program — for children under 13, or anyone who wants to referee recreational games. Register using the form on the site. Referees are sought from age 11 and up.
• US Soccer Certified Referee Program — for those at least 13 years old who want more competitive games. Complete the certification interest form.

Questions about refereeing go to [email protected].

Events and other site resources
