Welcome to the Roswell Youth Soccer Association! We proudly serve over 700 youth in Southeastern New Mexico. We host two soccer seasons: Fall and Spring.
We are proud members of the New Mexico Youth Soccer Association as well as US Youth Soccer.
As any other volunteer organization, we are always in need of more help. We will do our best to update this website on a timely manner, we hope you understand.
Research has proven that participants in athletic activities have better images of their own bodies, higher levels of self-esteem and more trust for others. You can help the RYSA reach the youth of Roswell with your sponsorship. For more information, please call us at 575-622.0690.
