Rated 5 stars by parents

Manu aka Fútbol Fundamentals is the best. He is extremely knowledgeable, creative, and technically as well as tactically an astute coach. He is very patient with kids and knows how to take each and everyone of them to the next level. He is truly an asset to the youth football/soccer community in Portland and surrounding areas. Can't recommend him enough.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where do training sessions take place?

All training is conducted on a professional soccer-grade turf field at Coach Manu’s home in SE Portland, in the Foster-Powell neighborhood. This provides a high-quality, controlled environment for focused development. If needed, we can discuss alternative locations with parents to accommodate specific needs.

What services do you offer?

We offer a range of training options, including private coaching, small-group training, and seasonal clinics & camps (see the navigation for the latest programs). Our focus is on helping your child develop strong fundamentals to set them up for long-term success. If you're unsure, we can help you decide.

What is your methodology?

Our training is built on fundamentals and game-realistic scenarios to develop well-rounded players. We focus on technical mastery, decision-making, and confidence under pressure while emphasizing high-intensity, high-rep training with immediate feedback. We incorporate games and fun into each session.

What should my child bring to training?

Your child should arrive with soccer turf shoes only (no cleats), shin guards, a water bottle, and a positive attitude and willingness to learn! ❌ No gum or food is allowed on the turf field to maintain a clean and professional training environment.

What is your cancellation or rescheduling policy?

If you need to reschedule, please give at least 48 hours notice. Missed sessions without prior notice cannot be refunded or rescheduled. Complete Development Program athletes have greater flexibility, depending on availability.

What ages and skill levels do you work with?

We train players ages 5 and up, from recreational to elite levels. Each session is designed to match their skill level, improve technical ability, and build confidence in high-pressure situations. Our training adapts to meet the needs of every player, ensuring steady growth.

How do I know which training option is best for my child?

If you're unsure, fill out the inquiry form above, and I’ll personally assess your child’s skill level, goals, and training needs. Whether they need one-on-one coaching, small-group competition, or participation in a large-group clinic, we’ll work together to find the right fit for your athlete.

Can parents watch?

Yes! Parents can stay or drop off and pick up at the end of the session. It is up to you :) If you choose to watch, we ask that you please observe quietly to help maintain focus. Regardless of your choice, please arrive on time to avoid disrupting any other scheduled sessions.

How do I sign up and how do we pay?

Simply fill out the form on this page to inquire about availability. I’ll follow up promptly to discuss your athlete’s needs and confirm the best training option. Once finalized, payment is required upfront for the session or program via Zelle or Venmo.

Is there a money-back guarantee?

Yes — if after your first month of training under the Complete Development Program you feel it’s not the right fit for your child, we’ll issue a full refund. We’re confident in the results we deliver, but want families to feel completely comfortable getting started.
