Members, We are looking for some suggestions and opinions as to how we as Missouri Youth Soccer Association Board of Directors can change the current perception of Missouri Youth Soccer Association. We have heard on many occasions from our members that Missouri Youth Soccer Association is driven by the East District and the other Districts throughout the state don't get the time of day. I personally would like to see that perception change. However, we need the support of the soccer communities from each District in order to make some improvements. We are looking to everyone for their opinions. So, we are open to suggestions and advice as to what is working and what is not? What would you like to see changed and how? Small Sided Games, State Cup, Toyota Cup, Kohl's Cup, Recreational Programs, ODP, ect?????? We have many new members on the Missouri Youth Soccer Association Board of Directors with many new ideas along with the desire to improve the game. We currently will be holding a Missouri Youth Soccer Association Board Meeting on May 31st @ Holiday Inn Select in Columbia, MO. If possible I would like to have some ideas to discuss, and work on over the next few months. You can e-mail me @ pres@mysa.org, or call me @ 1-314-620-9568 anytime with suggestions. Sincerely, Travis C. Ross President Missouri Youth Soccer Association pres@mysa.org 1-314-620-9568
