NMYSA members voted to move our Annual General Meeting (AGM) to the winter months at the 2025 AGM. The AGM is open to all NMYSA members. Each League has voting rights proportionate to the total number of registered players. The AGM traditionally consisted of all-day workshops (also including vendor booths, special guests, awards and recognition, and more).
Save the date! The New Mexico Youth Soccer Association Annual General Meeting is scheduled for February 1-2, 2025. We are excited to host Molly Grisham, a leadership developer and creator of “Lightbulb Moments”, a transformation blog! If you have had the pleasure of hearing Molly speak before, you know how inspirational and impactful her lessons are. Please invite friends and family to hear Molly speak–you won’t regret it! We will also be hosting Scott Flood from USSF Coaching Education, Tina Ricon, Chair of US Youth Soccer, Lauren Rhyne, Players Health Insurance, Eric Foster & Alec Cruickshank from Stack Sports, and our friends from New Mexico United!
