About the Programs
Junior Academy
The FC Portland Junior Academy Program’s goal is to focus on making the game fun for the kids while teaching them the fundamental (dribbling, passing, receiving) skills. We will introduce them to concepts and familiarize them with the game. Our end goal is to instill a passion for the beautiful game, so the kids are enjoying themselves, beginning to develop as players, and want to keep coming back because they love soccer.
Foundation Academy
The FC Portland Foundation Academy is the bridge connecting our Junior Academy (U7-U8) and our Development Academy Programs (U11-U14). Players are required to tryout and selected players will be placed in the Foundation Academy. These specific age groups are a critical learning age, and the Foundation Academy has been developed so that committed players can have access to year-round training where the basic fundamental skills are mastered. This program will give players the benefit of a competitive environment with a developmental mindset. The Foundation Academy is the perfect place for recreational players that are looking to transition into club soccer.
