Volunteer Recruiting
Come out and experience the fun of SFYS's second annual FOGGOLAZO! event on Sunday, August 20 from 10 am - 4 pm! Not only will there be 2nd and 3rd grade games all day at the Jamboree, but there will be so much more this year. The fabulous Futboleros will be wow-ing the crowd with their amazing tricks, a balloon artist and photo booth will be on site, we'll have art activities and face painting, food trucks and popsicles, time to meet a referee and ask about their job, and awesome prizes to give away. To help make the day run smoothly, we are looking for some volunteers. Every volunteer slot is one hour and you'll get a FOGGOLAZO! 2023 shirt and SFYS swag bag + one prize ticket per shift!
Sign up here if you can help!
While the day is about celebrating the community we would like to remind our supporters that SFYS is a 501c3 organization which remains operable by support from members like you. Aside from league play, which is funded by player registration, all additional SFYS programming is donation-centric. Supplemental programs are considered integral to the foundation of our soccer community and for building future leaders on and off the field. Help us reach our goal of $50,000 for SF Youth Soccer Programs including our free SFYS @ School program and our Youth Advisory Council.
Our annual FOGGOLAZO! event combines the 2nd & 3rd Grade Summer Jamboree with a Community Soccer Day that highlights and helps raise funds for the types of support we offer to the soccer community - Prize tickets can be earned doing any of the following:
- Are you a Coach? Sign up for the Master Class and discuss how to get the most out of your players.
- Are you a Goalkeeper? Compete in Goalie Wars to try and stop more shots than your competitors. (All Ages)
- Are you a Soccer Fan? Help SFYS fundraise while working out!
- Are you a Player, Coach or STAR? Take the opportunity to strike up a conversation with any of our amazing youth referees and mentors to see why they do what they do (or find out how much training they've completed).
- Come meet a volunteer Board Member at the Check In table and ask them why they volunteer.
… And if you're lucky, you might get to meet this year’s local artist - a rising 9th grader - who designed this year's FOGGOLAZO logo!
Anything you participate in - whether that's a Jamboree game, getting your picture taken at the FREE photo booth, or participating in the Master Class (coaches) or Goalie Wars - will earn you a chance to win a prize.
Do you own a local business that would like to take part or be featured? Are you a youth sports or arts club that would like to donate training or camp opportunities to our raffle? Reach out to us directly at info@sfyouthsoccer.com.

Hello SFYS community! I'm the volunteer Board VP for SFYS and have been working alongside SFYS staff to help make this an amazing event. I personally hope to see TONS of players, parents, coaches, referees, STARs, spectators, siblings, and friends at this event. There will be something for everyone.
We really want to highlight SFYS and the types of support they offer to the soccer community:
Are you a coach? Sign up for the Master Class and discuss how to get the most out of your players.
Are you a Keeper? Compete in Goalie Wars to try and stop more shots than your competitors.
Are you a player, coach or STAR? Please have a conversation with any of our amazing youth referees to see why they do what they do (or find out how much training they've completed).
Come meet a volunteer Board member at the Check In table and ask them why they volunteer.
And if you're lucky, you might get to meet the local artist - a rising 9th grader - who designed this year's FOGGOLAZO logo!
Anything you participate in - whether that's a Jamboree game, getting your picture taken at the FREE photo booth, or participating in the Master Class (coaches) or Goalie Wars - will earn you a chance to win a prize.
There is so much happening at this year's event. Swing by for an hour, or stay for three. I hope to see you there!
So excited for this summer's annual FOGGOLAZO! We learned a lot in our inaugural year expanding the preseason Summer Jamboree into a fullblown Community Soccer Day. This year, you can expect passionate soccer, excellent mentoring, engaging activities, great food, awesome prizes ... all in a gorgeous locale with a view (and within walking distance) of the Golden Gate Bridge!
We're still accepting sponsors and prizes and soon we'll be launching the online challenge site, so players and friends can show off their skills for prizes, while fundraising for SF Youth Soccer and our high quality, low-cost programming which keeps the sport accessible to all youth in the City.
If you or your business would like to donate prizes, please contact Hazen@sfyouthsoccer.com - and for monetary donations, thank you and here's the link you're looking for: https://sfys.rallyup.com/foggolazo23
