OVF Alliance offers players interested in competitive soccer with two development pathways (Classic & Elite) to provide the right experience for all players and families.
Our Classic Competitive program recognizes that not every player strives to play at the highest levels possible, and that often other factors like friends, community, and fun are significant factors in the decision to play soccer. Our Classic Competitive teams:
Our Elite Competitive program provides a platform for top players to continually challenge themselves against the best competition in training and games.
Regardless of whether you play in the Classic or Elite program, our U11-U19 soccer teams compete through Oregon Youth Soccer Association, and should expect to travel for approximately 5 games each season. These teams will also play in selected tournaments throughout the course of their 8-months of play, and Elite teams may also compete in USYSA National League events if they qualify.
This 8-month commitment for our U11-U14 teams includes two 10-game league seasons (Mid July-Mid November; Mid January - Mid May) with 2 practices per week, competition in State Cup or Presidents Cup, and additional tournaments in Late July, and August as well as our annual Alliance Club Friendlies.
Due to the High School Season in the fall, our U15-U19 teams only play 6 months (December - Mid June; 2-week winter break) including one 10-game league season (January-April), State Cup or President's Cup (April-May), and 1-2 additional tournaments (May-June). Our high school teams will practice 2-3 days per week.
Our Elite U15-U19 teams may also compete in USYSA National League events if they qualify, and choose to play in College Showcase tournaments throughout the Far West Region to gain exposure to college coaches.
Since our players have the opportunity to get in 125+ training days and over 25 games during these 8 months, our club tries to take the month of June OFF (i.e. no tournaments) whenever possible to avoid player burnout and allow for quality family time. Please keep in mind that this is not always possible, particularly with our older teams who may be competing in regionals or College Showcases at this time. If you are committing to a team competing at these levels, you are committing to participate in these events.
We are always looking for players who have a passion for the game, a great work ethic, and a competitive nature. If you are interested then we will provide you with a trial opportunity where you will be evaluated by the coaching staff to determine if this is the right opportunity for you. Please contact our Technical Director, Blake Leamy, at bleamy@OVFAlliance.com.
OVF Alliance is the only full service soccer club in the greater Willamette Valley that utilizes an integrated club model which requires the use of standardized curriculum, coaching methodologies, and a unified style of play that emphasizes purposeful possession. This creates a clear path and progression for all of our players from 5 years old through to our high school-aged and senior-level teams (USL League Two & USL-W).
