About Us

Our Mission


We hope we can provide to you and your family a host of sport's related services and activities. WYSO is a non-profit, volunteer-driven association, charged with the mission of providing youth sporting opportunities in our community. The efforts of WYSO would not be possible without the support of our parents, our local business sponsors, and the greater Waterloo community.

Part of our mission includes a "no child left behind" policy, primarily funded by generous donations from caring individuals in the community. If you are interested in donating to this fund and ensuring the continuation of this important community resource, please contact the secretary secretary@waterlooyouthsports.org.

And finally, WYSO is committed to continually improving our programs and bringing new parents into the club. If you have any questions or have an interest in becoming involved in the WYSO, please contact WYSO President, Otto Degler at wysopresident@waterlooyouthsports.org, and GO LOO!

Code of Conduct

Sportsmanship is the one, over-riding goal of every program offered by the WYSO. Our Board has adopted a "Code of Conduct" which is proudly displayed at Fireman's Park and consistently reinforced on the practice field by our volunteer coaches. We hope it is also a message which is often repeated at home.

In the event that a situation comes up during a practice or game that you as a parent feel is inappropriate, please take it upon yourself to first contact your child's Head Coach to discuss the issue. If your concerns rest with this particular individual and you are NOT comfortable talking to the Head Coach, please communicate your concerns to the appropriate Director, or the WYSO "Players Agent. (see WYSO Board page for a list of directors).

Keep in mind, these situations come up in every club and usually require a minor remedy. Please be patient, give the appropriate volunteers a chance to respond, and most of all, remember your child is watching how you handle the situation!
