Master the Fundamentals.
Love the Game.

Train with Purpose

Most private training focuses on isolated drills—but without a structured plan, young players can struggle to develop properly.

Our training follows a clear, progressive approach designed for long-term player development.

We help your athlete build the technical mastery that translates into real game impact—better control, smarter decisions, and greater confidence under pressure.

Coach Manu is one of the best coaches I have ever seen in Oregon. My three boys improved a lot after practicing with him. He is patient and positive with all of the kids. His training is very intense, and I highly recommend him. Skills, defending, and all of the other techniques, only you can learn from Manu. It is an Italian soccer mentality.

Creating More Ways for Kids to Play

All over the world, kids grow up playing soccer anywhere a ball can roll—streets, parks, beaches. But in Portland, pay-to-play dominates, leaving many without opportunities. Fútbol Fundamentals began as an effort to bring back the joy of playing with friends.

Over the years, we’ve hosted hundreds of pickup games, after-school camps, large-group training sessions, and tournament teams—always free or donation-based to cover costs and provide scholarships for kids who otherwise couldn’t afford to play.

As our community grew, parents and players started asking for more—something beyond just a place to play. They wanted structured training and a clear path to reach their full potential. That demand led to the creation of our private and group training programs.

No matter how much we grow, we remain committed to creating more ways for kids to play, offering free and low-cost events throughout the year so that every child has the chance to play, learn, and love the game.
