TOPSOCCER
FOR ATHLETES WITH DISABILITIES
SHARING THE BEAUTIFUL GAME
US Youth Soccer TOPSoccer (The Outreach Program for Soccer) is a community-based training program for players experiencing intellectual/developmental disabilities. This program strives to provide soccer opportunities for players to develop skills at their own pace in a safe, fun, and inclusive environment.
WHAT WE DO
The Capital FC TOPSoccer Program serves players experiencing disabilities in our community, regardless of classification. In support with the Oregon Youth Soccer Association (OYSA), we work to provide the opportunity to access the amazing sport of soccer for all in our community. Our inclusive service is provided by an experienced coaching staff and volunteer buddies for individualized mentorship. Adaptive equipment and ability-based sessions are just some of the ways our program meets the needs of our athletes.
