Welcome to Danville, Indiana soccer!

The Danville Optimist Youth Soccer League (DOYSL) is a non-profit organization of Recreation (Rec) and Select soccer programs. Our volunteers deliver quality youth soccer development by challenging our players, coaches, referees & families with a relentless pursuit of excellence.

**Please note age groups have changed**

Due to changes that came down from US Youth Soccer (USYS), age group formations have changed. Starting Fall 2026, rather than age groups being assigned based on the calendar year, they are now more closely aligned with the school calendar (August 1 – July 31). This change was made to to better align players with their school-grade peers. Assignments are still based on birth date, not enrolled grade level. You can read more on the USYS website.
