The girls' OCYSC program was absolutely horrible. As a former team manager, I can attest that, once you've paid, you and your daughter's team will receive very little (if any) support from OCYSC. In fact, mid-season, the OCYSC office transferred so many girls from our team to other OCYSC squads, we had insufficient players left to field a full squad (less than 11 players.) We were forced to rely upon volunteers from other squads and age groups (many of whom had scheduling conflicts with their own teams and couldn't play) and, as a result, we were regularly forced to play with only 9 girls (against teams with 11 players on the field and another 10 or so resting on the bench) with many of our girls injured due to lack of rest and heat exhaustion. Repeated calls to the OCYSC office to speak with the girls' program coordinator went ignored. I even drove to the office 2-3 times and waited for the program coordinator but no one would speak with me about our team's situation (keep in mind I was the team manager.) The coach reported that no one would return his many calls and messages either. Once our season had ended, two-thirds or more of the girls and their families left OCYSC for other clubs. Not sure what, if anything, has changed in the subsequent seasons. Recommend that you not sign your daughter up for OCYSC unless/until you've had a chance to speak with other OCYSC parents in your daughter's age group. Failing this, I would avoid girl's OCYSC altogether.

The fields are nice and easy to find. As per most kids soccer events the parking as abhorrent.
