What are the two
phases of the
registration process?
1.
Completion and submission of registration
(player) and fees or application (volunteer).
Acceptance of the registration or application by
• Registrar (player) and placement on a team.
OR
• CVPA (volunteer) and assignment of a volunteer
position.
Completing a player or
volunteer form either
online or in person is
the first step.
Registrars must
“accept” players and
the CVPA must
“accept” volunteers in
eAYSO using the
registration function.

eSignatures
• Now available at no additional cost!
• Parents/Volunteers complete and eSign their
Registration/Volunteer Applications online in eAYSO.
• eSigned Player and Volunteer forms do not have to be
stored at the Region level after the season.
• eSigned volunteer forms are available immediately to
Safe Haven for background checking and do not have to
be mailed to the AYSO National Office.
• As of 8/1/14 eSignature in eAYSO is required for players.
22
eSign for Player Requirement
AYSO National Policy Statement 3.7
Aug.1, 2014: All AYSO player registration forms must be
submitted using eSign via eAYSO.
The eSignature capacity in eAYSO for player registration
was automatically activated for all Regions
on August 1st, 2014.
23
Why eSign in eAYSO?
•
•
•
•
24
Reduce Regions’ cost of long-term
storage of “wet” signature forms.
Help mitigate continued increases in
insurance costs.
Preserve “chain of custody” in event of
litigation.
Protect privacy of our players, parents,
and volunteers.
eAYSO Functionality
Parents who currently use eAYSO to register
their players will continue to do so.
25
Region Process
• eSignature does not mean paperless.
• If you currently have parents printing out one
or more copies of the online application to
bring with them to a registration event, then
continue to do so.
• You can still use paper forms
during the season but with eSign
you no longer have to hold the
paper forms in long term storage.
26
Region Process
• Previously, when a Region needed to input
player information off a paper form they only
had the Add New Player button to use.
• Moving forward, the
Region will have
a new Easy e-Sign button
available to process paper forms.
27
Easy eSign
• A Region Volunteer is able to input the
application into eAYSO, and a message with a
secure link will be sent to the primary
parent’s email.
• The parent can then
open up their email,
click on the secure link
where they can complete
the eSignature process
from home.
28
Easy eSign
• When a parent clicks on the secure link in
their email, they will be taken to eAYSO
where they can complete the process and
eSign their application.
• This converts the “wet” signature on the
paper form into an eSignature inside eAYSO.
29
Primary Parent Email Address
• Use Easy eSign anytime the primary parent has a
reliable email address we can enter into eAYSO.
30
What if a Parent Can’t eSign?
• Most parents use the Internet and have email,
but some families don’t and therefore cannot
Easy eSign.
• In these few cases, paper forms can still be
used but there are additional steps that must
be taken.
=
31
Purely a Paper Process
• If the Primary Parent has absolutely no Email
and no Internet access then use the legacy
Add New Player button.
• The Region will still
be able to add the Player
as they have done in years past.
• However, original signed forms (top copy for
multilayer forms) must be sent to the
National Office Attn: Registration
Coordinator by end of the current season.
32
Important Note!
No matter whether eSignature, Easy eSign,
or paper forms are used, it is important to
note - all paper forms prior to eSignature,
still have to be retained until the player
reaches age 24.
