Year-Round Competitive Soccer in SE and NE Portland

A Complete Soccer Education

in the Pacific NW

Soccer Chance Academy is a year-round competitive soccer club located in Portland, Oregon.

The SCA academy model is shared and transparent. It is underpinned by individual creativity and player freedom, with an emphasis on what an individual can do rather than what they can’t. We design learning spaces that ignite players’ imaginations, foster curiosity, and inspire innovation – all of which ultimately becomes imprinted in a young player’s DNA.

The Individual is the Syllabus

With its shared set of principles regarding development, the SCA development team places the player at the center and permits them to follow a non-traditional pathway.

The Academy Model

Playing Time

SCA coaches take a patient approach and do not make playing time decisions based on age, size, and maturation bias. Instead, we invest in each individual.

Games Programs

We provide a unique games program that challenges conventional approaches to field size, single-gendered teams, and age groupings.
