2026 AYSO Section 7 EXPO
2026 AYSO Section 7 EXPO
ALOHA, E KOMO MAI!
Hello and Welcome!
Welcome to the 2026 AYSO SECTION 7 EXPO!
We are excited to host this event at the beautiful Alohilani Resort Hotel on Waikiki Beach for a second year.
It will be a weekend of training, certification and continuing education for all volunteers as well as great networking avenues to connect with other volunteers from surrounding regions.
You will find all the event details, including costs, agenda (draft but please check back for the final version), and registration links.
Please note that no workshops will be offered on Thursday evening as we’ve done in the past.
The EXPO will start on Friday morning, and continue through the evening.
Lunch and a heavy pupus reception in the early evening, will be offered on Friday.
Saturday and Sunday workshops will remain as usual, with breakfast and our awards lunch on Saturday, and breakfast on Sunday.
There will be a luncheon on Sunday with the Section Director for RC’s, AD’s, and invited Section staff.
Please mark your calendars and plan to join us as we share ideas, stories, and our love of soccer with other AYSO volunteers just like you.
Mahalo!
