South Fayette Soccer Association is in need of volunteers!

South Fayette Soccer Association is a volunteer organization and is actively recruiting volunteers for a variety of duties.

The current SFSA Board of Directors consists of ten "volunteer" members who have to coordinate the over 600 children who register for soccer every season!  Some non-board members also help out with various duties such as uniform distribution and fundraising.

As our community continues to grow, the number of volunteers needed grows too.  As board members "age out" when their children outgrow the program, there is an ongoing need for new representatives from younger age groups especially. 

Starting in Fall 2023, all families will be required to either volunteer time or pay a non-volunteer fee of $50 per season.  Please consider volunteering with this fun organization and help shape the way our youth will learn and appreciate the game of soccer!!
