Player Development Program

Player Development Program (PDP) Team Details
Team Player (U09-U10 Only)

PDP Team play is open to the young soccer players (U09-U10) that are looking for a longer season, better competition and looking to improve their soccer skills playing at a more competitive level than the recreational program offers. PDP is a great opportunity for young soccer players to learn new skills and benefit from the experience of a more competitive play. Coaches generally have more coaching and/or playing experience and are encouraged to obtain coaching licenses representative of the age group they are coaching.

Philosophy: PDP is a fall and spring commitment for younger players with the passion for soccer as a precursor to competitive soccer (beginning at U11). As a parent you can expect: more time commitment (practices start in June and are typically 90 minutes), a longer season (tournaments during the summer and fall, then the spring season), more experienced coaches which results in more development for the player in both the tactical and technical sides of soccer, and a club like atmosphere with a commitment to the community unique to the PDP program.

Summer/Fall Season: Team registration will include participation in one major local tournament in the summer (exact tournament TBD). Any additional tournaments will be the team's responsibility. The cost for Summer/Fall is $275.00.

Games will be on Sundays at Cook Park in Tigard, starting in September and ending in October. PDP games are structured as follows:

  • Games are 8 v 8
  • 25 minute halves; 5 minute half time

SPRING: Players that participated in the Fall PDP season are encouraged to continue play in the spring season. Team coaches have notified their players of practice time and locations. Practices start in early February. The games will be Sundays with a total of 7 games over 9 weeks, starting February 26th. For the spring 2012 season, FC Portland is the host club and games will be played at Liberty High School in Hillsboro.
