Region 104 has served youth players in Albuquerque since 1978 and is the largest recreational youth soccer organization in the city, according to the AYSO 104 website. The organization relies on volunteer coaches, referees, team parents and other positions to run practices and officiate games. AYSO offers free training for volunteer coaches and referees with certifications that can transfer over to paid positions on club teams.
