    Is it fair to say that WA club soccer is clearly stronger that OR club soccer?

    PNW Soccer is becoming stronger and catching up with Cali and Texas!

    Is this because of WA or OR?

    1) WA soccer is generally stronger than OR. Population is the main reason.
    2) WA does not hold a candle to CA or TX.

      Population doesn’t work unless the difference is massive which it isn’t between the two states.

      Tell that to the Netherlands and Iceland.

      The difference is in the coaching. Oregon coaches are outdated dinosaurs still coaching the game that was played in the 90’s

        Population isn't that different?

        WA: ~7.6 million
        Seattle metro: ~4 million
        OR: ~4.2 million
        Portland Metro: ~2.7 million

        That being said, I do still agree that coaches in WA are better than Oregon for the most part. Part of that has to do with coaches pay. Its not even close between seattle clubs and portland clubs when it comes to pay. Not saying paying more money magically makes someone a better coach, but it does help attract good coaches who maybe would only do collegiate soccer or other things, becuase now its worth their time a bit more.

          Coaching is MUCH better in WA and particularly in the Seattle area.

            Basic coaching salaries in comparison
            $3,000-$8,000 a year to coach in OR
            $900-$2,400 a month to coach in WA

              dont forget about the unemployment they were also able to get the past few months. Some got a raise.

                Stats way off.

                Oregon slackers drain 2k to 4k a month from daycare/coaching 2 or 3 rec+ teams...except during coviid..

                  Families from Texas and California are moving to Seattle for jobs causing new kids joining teams every year.

                    Don’t blame pay. Coaches are not paid $20k per team in WA. Additionally the problem isn’t just the staff coaches in Oregon. DOCs are the problem. Most are fat (literally) and lazy. Oh and the reason clubs don’t have more money to pay coaches is due club’s overpaying their DOCs!
