For the seasonal soccer player or the one who wants to try soccer, this is your program!

Brought to you in partnership with Coerver® Coaching, “The World’s Number 1 Soccer Skills Teaching Method,” this 8-week program is offered in the fall and the spring for kids grades kinder through 8th grade.

The program includes weekly training with a volunteer coach (Coerver coaches with K-1st graders), 1 game per week on Saturdays, and an end-of-season tournament for 4th - 8th grade divisions who are a part of the Willamette Valley Youth Soccer League.

We’re a Coerver Partner club - and that means your player gets access to the world’s best soccer skills teaching method.

We value giving kids the “best start in soccer.” Kinder and 1st grade teams all receive one practice per week led by Coerver trainers. We are grateful for our relationship with Coerver and its internationally-recognized curriculum.

For players 2nd through 8th grade who are looking for a little more technical training, Coerver Training led by Coerver staff is available to these players on Friday nights for $95 for 8 weeks.

You can register for the extra Coerver training by clicking which time slot you prefer -

5:10PM | 6:10PM

 

Volunteer-led coaching supported by our curriculum and staff.

All teams play under the leadership of volunteer coaches who receive weekly curriculum from US Soccer, access to the Coerver drill library, and unparalleled support from our US Soccer-licensed program directors.

 

#SoccerSaturdaYs - the best playing environment!

These Saturday games are something special - we love seeing everyone out there in their jerseys taking the field!

Our team puts a lot of care into protecting the environment for kids to compete and learn while parents cheer, allowing kids to both have fun and grow from the life lessons that come from competing and striving to be your best.

There are a few differences in the K-3 league play vs 4-8th grade.

For Kinder-3rd graders, teams compete in the Willamette Valley Soccer League on Saturdays for 8 weeks. These games are hosted at Capital FC’s award-winning complex, Pioneer Sports Park.

4th-8th graders play in the Willamette Valley Youth Soccer League, which is a regional league with participants from the Willamette Valley Soccer Association.

Teams compete on Saturdays for 7 weeks, with an end-of-season tournament on the final Saturday and Sunday of the season (total of 8 weeks).
