United PDX Friday Night Sessions

The United PDX Friday Night Academy is designed for motivated players seeking to elevate their game. This program offers a challenging training environment focused on technical skill development, led by United PDX Coaches and current Players.

Each session follows a structured skills curriculum designed to help athletes develop the tools necessary to compete at a high level. The Academy is intended to supplement a player’s existing team training—not replace it.

Program Details:

• Offered in the Fall, Winter, and Spring
• 6 sessions per season
• Friday nights
• 1.5 hours per session
• $200 per season

Join us for a focused, high-energy training experience that pushes players to grow and refine their abilities.
