Forest Park Youth Soccer Association (FPYSA)
The youth soccer program is run by the Forest Park Youth Soccer Association (FPYSA). It is designed to teach the game of soccer in a fun, recreational environment. Forest Park Youth Soccer Association is independent of the Forest Park District. We run both a Spring and Fall league each year. We utilize Forest Park's state-of-the-art turf soccer field for practices and games. In both seasons, we engage other local townships to increase the competition and afford more game opportunities. We offer the opportunity to have team and individual pictures taken too.
The Code of Conduct document defines the guidelines for a fair and respectful interaction between the children, parents & caregivers, coaches, referees and fans of FPYSA.
