Youth soccer training in Pasadena built around your child’s level — whether they’re just starting, leveling up on their team, or looking for the right competitive home.
Start your child’s soccer journey with Pasadena’s best fundamental training. We build correct mechanics and early ball mastery to ensure a confident first AYSO season.
Current club and rec players need a proven system to reach the next competitive tier. Our methodology refines technique so athletes can stand out at tryouts and earn more playing time.
Advanced athletes require a high-intensity environment to sharpen their decision-making under pressure. We train the match-day competence required to excel in Southern California’s toughest youth leagues.
Multi-sport athletes or busy students who want to keep their touch sharp.
The standard for serious improvement. One day of learning, one day of mastering.
Full immersion. Players obsessed with the game see rapid technical changes.
The secret to game-day success is what you do between team practices. FTBL is an exclusive supplementary development club in East Pasadena. We proudly serve families from Hastings Ranch, Sierra Madre, Altadena, Arcadia, and San Marino, and surrounding areas. Stop driving hours for professional coaching, it’s right in your backyard.
We believe true team success only happens after individual success. While most programs focus strictly on weekend wins, our mission is to elevate the technical standard of every player. Whether your child is taking their first steps in Foundation One, supplementing their current club with our club-neutral training, or competing on our official FTBL Academy Teams, we provide a safe, high-intensity environment to build confident, technically sound players.
Which Path Is Your Player On?
Boys and girls ages 6 to 18. We have specific programs for every stage: Foundation One (Ages 4–10), Foundation Two (Ages 8–13), and Academy Teams (U6 – U13).
No tryout needed for Foundation One — registration is open to all! For Academy Teams and Foundation Two, we conduct a brief evaluation to place players in the right group for their development.
Absolutely. Foundation One and Two are supplementary training — we’re club-neutral. Many of our players train here AND play on other teams. Our Academy Teams are the only program that functions as a team commitment.
Our training location is at 3100 E Del Mar Blvd, Pasadena, CA 91107. We’re centrally located for families in East Pasadena, Hastings Ranch, Sierra Madre, Altadena, Arcadia, and San Marino.
Club teams focus on winning games. We focus on building players. Most club practices are tactical (formations, set pieces) with little time for individual technical development. Every minute at FTBL is spent making your child a better individual player — the skills that actually determine their ceiling.
