Volunteer Bond

Eastside Youth Soccer Volunteer Bond

As a non-profit, community-based organization, Eastside Youth Soccer Association relies on the support of parents and guardians to help run our programs successfully. To ensure fairness and continued success, we require all families to contribute volunteer time or pay a volunteer bond.

To help support a great soccer experience for every player, we require a $100 volunteer bond per player, submitted before evaluations. If your volunteer commitment is completed, the bond will be refunded at the end of the season.

This bond will be added to your registration automatically.
