About Us

Who we are

We simply are parents, parents who’s own hobbies were set aside for our children’s interests. 15 years later though, somehow our children’s interests became our interests as well.

As a family from Portland Oregon, we became soccer parents through a combination of our child’s interest in the sport and our commitment to supporting their passion. It all started when our child expressed a keen fascination with soccer, watching matches on TV and enthusiastically kicking a ball around whenever they had the chance. Intrigued by their enthusiasm, we began researching local soccer programs and clubs, trying to find one that aligned with our values and offered excellent coaching. We enrolled our child, and from that moment on, our journey as soccer parents began.

We quickly found ourselves immersed in the soccer community, volunteering at the club, forming connections with other parents and building relationships that added to the richness of the experience. Because of our Dutch roots we also connected with Dutch soccer professionals from Ajax Amsterdam to offer help and programs at our local club. It’s the history and knowledge of the Dutch that really got us motivated to want to share this knowledge we gained from them to help our children become not only better players but better human beings.
