We're so excited to welcome your child to our next season of soccer with Girls Unite!
There are 2-3 required steps to get your player ready to play. 2 steps if you are a returning player, 3 steps if you are new to Girls Unite.
Step 1: Player Registration with GIRLS UNITE CLUB - Byga
Due Nov 20th
Every player must register directly through BYGA and Top Score to confirm their roster spot. Both steps require payment.
Returning players – register for the same number of practices / week your player had in previous seasons (Unless a change has been confirmed by your coach/team parent representative). New players – register for your preferred practice frequency and Girls Unite will place your player with a team accordingly
Payment is due in full at time of registration. Financial assistance requests – see bottom of step 1. Girls Unite Programs page for program pricing
Please use the same email you enter for “parent 1” through BYGA and use the same email contact for Step 2 or your registration approval will be delayed.
Deadlines may be subject to change due to changes in SF Youth Soccer timelines.

FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE is available to those in need (optional)
Spring playing season: start BYGA registration & complete Financial Assistance form by Nov 11th (2 steps).
Fall playing season: start BYGA registration & complete Financial Assistance form by May 10th.
Step 2: Player Registration with SFYS LEAGUE - Top Score
Due Nov 20th
SFYS is using a web-based (no app) registration platform, “Top Score”. Please be prepared to upload a head photo (if your player is new) and pay the league fee as it is additional and separate from the club fee and sign waivers for your player.
Process: within 1 week of your player completing the Byga / Girls Unite Club registration, Girls Unite will manually add your player to the team in Topscore. Please note this step is not able to be automated at this time and there is a timing lag for families between steps.
This registration step is very time sensitive as the team will not be allowed to form by the league unless we have all players registered in “Top Score” by the SFYS deadline. Here are the league set roster minimums to be allowed to play in the upcoming season. Delays in setting up your players profile in the “Top Score” league platform will delay team formation and risk league approval.
BOTH registration steps must be completed for your player to be approved. BOTH registration steps require payment. One payment goes to Girls Unite (the club) through BYGA and one payment goes to SFYS (the league) through their registration platform “Top Score”. There is a payment for Club/Byga and a separate payment for League/”Top Score”.
For new players to SFYS only, all players registered through “Top Score” will receive another email from platform called “Ankored”. “Ankored” will ask for a birth certificate upload if your player is new to SFYS (all second graders coming from Micro league are new to SFYS). This step does not apply to players returning to SFYS from previous seasons.
Reminders:
Do not wait until the last day to register in case you run into technical questions/issues and risk your team formation!
Girls Unite may need up to 2 business days to reply to questions during the rush of registration.
League Season Fees: Fall = $140. Spring = $140. SFYS League Fees are additional & paid directly to SFYS by the families as required by the league
FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE is available to those in need through SFYS (optional)
SFYS fees are paid directly by Families to SFYS (the league). If families need financial assistance to pay the SFYS league fee, there is a separate SFYS financial assistance application that needs to be completed. You will only be able to complete this step after you receive financial assistance award from Girls Unite.

Step 3: Order Uniform (New Uniform as of Fall 2024)
Due with Soccer.com notification for Spring 2027 season for players new to Girls Unite.
All teams, including school teams, will need to be in a Girls Unite jersey for the upcoming season. Players can supply their own black shorts/socks.
If you are a returning player and already have a current purple Girls Unite jersey, you do not need to order a new uniform.
After a player is registered with Girls Unite (+1 business week starting last week of Nov), soccer.com will send an emailed invite with ordering link to guardian contact info entered in Step 1 of registration.
Please note soccer.com rosters have a 1 business week delay between when your player registers through Girls Unite and when they’re added to the soccer.com roster.
Please order as soon as possible as uniforms can take up to 4 weeks to arrive.
Step 4: Player Handbook
Girls Unite requires players and their guardians/parents to get to know and to abide by the Girls Unite Player Handbook.
The GU Handbook outlines expectations and best practices for kids and their families as members of the Girls Unite soccer club and overall community.
Be sure to review the handbook and its policies with your player.
Step 5: Summer Camps (Optional)
Girls Unite will be hosting spring and summer camps.
Keep your player active — having fun and building skills + community.
All of our camps are optional and open to ALL kids — all genders and all levels of play, ages 5 – 14.
A camp-specific registration is required and cost is separate. We hope to see your child there!
