U8-U10 | Portland City United Soccer Club

Development U8-10 Teams

In our YDP program (U8–U10), players are challenged through engaging games, purposeful training activities, and meaningful team interaction. This stage focuses on building strong technical foundations while fostering confidence, creativity, and a love for the game. YDP prepares players for the transition to competitive soccer while also enhancing the skills of those continuing to balance recreational play.

We offer multiple team levels within each age group, ensuring players compete in an environment that matches their current development and ability. PCU’s programs provide both a competitive and supportive setting where players are encouraged to grow, take risks, and reach their personal potential through the game of soccer.
