We welcome all children, regardless of race, creed or national origin.
The mission of the Cal North District VIII - California Youth Soccer Association is to serve all children and our communities by providing opportunities that allow each child to grow, learn, mature and succeed by becoming productive adult members of society through the development, promotion, and offering, regardless of race, color, religion, age, sex, national origin and/or ability, comprehensive community based leagues that offer a complete range of youth soccer opportunities for all children of all ages and abilities.
Cal North - California Youth Soccer Association, District VIII - serves the Alpine, Amador, Calaveras, Mariposa, Merced, Mono, San Joaquin, Stanislaus, and Tuolumne counties. We are sustained by the efforts of volunteers who display an extraordinary amount of commitment and hard work, ensuring that our programs have a positive influence in the lives of children. Affiliated Leagues strive to provide a service to their community by providing a healthy outlet for children, opportunities for the community to gather together, and endless hours of entertainment.
There are leagues which offer soccer to players with special needs. This program is named TOPSoccer. This program allows special needs players to play sports, in a fun filled environment, with the help of 'soccer buddies', who are on the field with the players. For more information on the TOPSoccer program, visit the TOPSoccer page on this website.
The TOPSoccer program does not exist in all District VIII leagues, check with your local league.

California Youth Soccer Association Mission Statement
On February 14, 2018, a new federal bill, Senate Bill 534, the 'Protecting Young Victims from Sexual Abuse and Safe Sport Authorization Act', was signed into law. This new federal law is targeted towards preventing and recognizing sexual, physical, and mental abuse, which targets youth sports players. All associations/clubs/leagues within District VIII are impacted by this new law. This new bill now requires a sweeping range of recognition and preventative measures, mandated by federal law, to be implemented by all District VIII members. For information on this act, go to theSafeSport Act page, on this site.
