I think you misunderstood the question, they were asking about getting kids in college.

Boys side is very clear if you pay attention.


Timbers Academy



Huge Gap




WSM/Or premier


United PDX, and only because they claim every academy kid as theirs. They don’t have many actual players who’ve played there for years going off to play at next level. Almost none in fact.



The rest of the clubs will have a one off d3 player here and there.

They are asking for support, guidance and navigating the process. The clubs listed do exactly that. Most no TA kids are D3, NAIA and JuCo players.

For the girls, definitely Thorns and Surf have structure and process in place to help with the recruitment process and do a pretty decent job.

College coaches like FC Portland players. By far the best club in Oregon at developing the person first. None of the others come close to FC.

We are talking about now and into the future. FC Portland is sooo much weaker now.
