Dear Mass Youth Soccer Member Organization Leadership
Effective August 1, 2024, the Mass Youth Soccer Governance Portal (governance.mayouthsoccer.org/) will replace the existing Leadership Report required to be submitted annually by member organizations.
To assist you with fulfilling the requirement, we have created a brief Youtube video outlining how to use the portal. Youtube – Governance Portal Overview – Mass Youth Soccer
Credentials for the Governance Portal will be communicated directly in the coming days to your organization President / Principal Officer as listed on your most recently submitted leadership report.
_________________________________________________________________________________________
The Governance Portal has 3 main components:
Landing Page
Each Mass Youth Soccer member organization will have a landing page housed on the Mass Youth Soccer website. The landing page will also include location information connected directly with Google Maps. This feature will enable families to search for soccer programs by zip code and provide prospective new players with contact information and program details for your organization.
Required Documentation
The Governance Portal acts as a repository for required documentation to ensure all member organizations are compliant with Federal, State and Governing Body (US Soccer) governance requirements for operating an affiliated youth soccer program in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. This function will provide secure document storage and knowledge retention for key organizational documents.
Leadership Report
The leadership report and annual member acknowledgements are required to be submitted annually by member organizations by August 31st each year or when there is a change of personnel in a leadership position.
The deadline for Member Organizations to submit required information Leadership Report and Documentation through the portal is August 31, 2024.
Should you have any questions, please contact Greg Garofolo GGarofolo@mayouthsoccer.org who will gladly assist you with the process.
Many Thanks
Rob Holliday
Executive Director
