    Just received an extra $815,000 from an investor that is starting the clubhouse/futsal facility in September.
    How is this plan working out? Is everything on track for completion by September?

      If you read the OP they did not say completed in September. I heard last week that plans are in for final review at the city and they are still planning on breaking ground in September. It is scheduled to be open and operational by March. Apparently Hampton Inn dropped another $400k towards the project along with a $275k donation from the Burgerville owner. They are at $3.1 million right now raised.

        And still can't attract top coaches or players.

          They throttle your club top to bottom without coaches and players. Your club must be underachieving.

              If Vantucky Can do this then other local clubs can too!
              Why is it that other clubs don’t even bother trying? Are they more concerned about lining their individual pockets?

                Why are we still talking about Washington Timbers in the 04 DA thread? With the 04s becoming U15s, WashT no longer has an 04 DA team; their oldest DA team are the 05s.

                (Likewise for Westside, FC, etc. The only 04 DA team in town now is Timbers Academy).

                  Who says other clubs aren't trying or haven't done this? Just takes a long time.

                  Crossfire is working on a big complex;
                  Eastside just completed their facility;
                  FC partnered on Liberty;
                  PCU partnered on Buckman/Salvation Army;
                  United partnered on OES/Westside Christian/Madison/Concordia;
                  Westside and THUSC have worked fields through Tualatin District.

                  What Washington Timbers has done is great, took a long time. Helped they get land essentially for free and always going to be easier to build a clubhouse/exclusivity though in the suburbs than closer to central Portland (few big parcels of land).

                    With TH gone from TA who is taking over this age group?

                      Nobody cares about your little league.

                      Nothing has changed.

                      Same coaches

                      Same opponents

                      Same players

                      Same results


                      But at least you get Gatorade at the game...

                      DA is a joke.

                        Free Gatorade is a nice perk.

                          XF has pipe dreams. See Willamette United tools...

                          Eastside has a couple fields, it's still on the eastside.

                          FC is on shaky grounds with Hillsboro S District, lease is up.

                          PCU has a worn out mat at Benson HS.

                          United/NEU rents time from whoever is willing

                          WST & THUSC have a kindgom of turf & grass fields all the other clubs mentioned combined don't have this spoils of riches.

                          Nobody is doing squat.

                            And yet WST and THUSC remain cruddy, in spite of their "spoil of riches."

                              WST and THUSC, of course, have to share "their" fields with each other, with AUSC, the various rec programs in the district, and other sports such as lacrosse that have an equal claim to field time.

                              Neither, of course, is "cruddy". THUSC (particularly CU) is one of the strongest girls' programs in the state (and lets be honest--Crossfire provides the name, THUSC provides the talent). Westside remains one of the strongest boys' programs overall.

                              Powerlines Park may be cruddy, I'll agree with that.

                                Lol. Oregon has some of the best soccer facilties in the country. The problem is what these clubs do with them.
