We Have The Right Soccer Program For Your Child

WUFC offers numerous competitive and recreational soccer programs for every age group throughout the year.

What Are Families Saying?

“Willamette United is a very well run club that has provided a consistently positive soccer experience for my family. I will be in my 8th year of coaching recreational soccer and I also have kids that play on the competitive side of the program. Each year, as a recreational coach, I am required to complete SafeSport and concussion training. It is reassuring to know that all coaches and adults associated with Willamette United have completed the same training. Willamette United has established policies that protect the athletes, adults and the club. All of the coaches we have encountered on the competitive side of the club have been terrific, both in their soccer expertise and how they work with young kids. I also appreciate that Willamette United supports multi-sport athletes.

Willamette United is a well-organized, safe, and positive club environment that is really valued, and so important for our kids. ”

- Becka Puskas

“Having had our son come up through the soccer ranks at WUFC, from Rec to PDP to Classic and beyond.. The amount of development that occurs in just those short PDP years is incredible. Much of this is due to the focus of the WUFC PDP coaching staff on developing the person as well as the soccer player. I would recommend WUFC PDP to anyone, proof being that our daughter is now benefiting from their program. She is improving day by day, is part of a great team, oh and did I mention they treat you like family? Go Willamette! ”

- Michael Pierce

“The PDP program offered by WUSC is just an amazing experience for young soccer players. I have had three kids that have participated in the program and all of them loved the extra attention. They were able to spend more time on the pitch and improve their soccer skill. I truly believe this program helped them to become better players. The coaches are fantastic and spend so much time with each and every player! We are so blessed that our club offers such a valuable program.

- Lisa Kellogg

“We’ve had two boys graduate from the PDP program, and we feel like they both were well prepared for the next stage of their soccer careers. Willamette PDP is a great bridge between the recreational experience and the higher expectations of classic soccer. We saw dramatic technical improvement in both of our sons throughout PDP, without sacrificing their love of the game. From the coaching staff to the parents, the focus is 100% on development as opposed to winning and losing games, which has clearly benefited the kids as they’ve moved through the system.

- Jay Caba

Did you know it’s Hispanic Heritage Month?

We sat down with Coach Juan and Coach Israel to share some of their values and experiences being a Hispanic coach in Oregon.

We would like our soccer community to recognize and celebrate the heritage of all of our Hispanic players, coaches, parents and community members this month!
