BEAVERTON, Ore. (KPTV) – The Portland Timbers have acquired property in Beaverton where their current training facility sits for $25 million, the club announced Tuesday.
With the purchase of the 13-acre property from Tualatin Hills Park & Recreation District (THPRD), the Timbers plan to expand their training facilities into the “Portland Timbers Performance Center” by 2026.
“Today’s announcement of the purchase of the Portland Timbers Performance Center represents a critically important investment in the future of the club. We now control a 13-acre footprint that provides us plenty of space to build a best-in-class training home for the Portland Timbers and its entire development pipeline,” said Timbers Owner Merritt Paulson. “I would like to thank the leadership at Tualatin Hills Parks & Recreation District for their continued partnership and willingness to make this purchase possible.”

The Timbers partnered with THPRD in 2011 to lease 6,000 feet of space for the construction of the adidas Timbers Training Center. The agreement was extended in 2015 to include an additional 2,600-square feet and again in 2017 when it tripled in size to 24,000-square feet.
The new facility will triple the property space again to 90,000-square feet.
The club plans to add a second grass field, bringing the total number of fields to three. Other additions include a viewing deck, more office space, indoor practice surface and expanded facilities for players.
“Beaverton is proud to be home to the Portland Timbers’ training facility, and we’re excited to see this next chapter take shape,” said Mayor of Beaverton Lacey Beaty. ”Sports are part of our city’s identity—from youth leagues to professional teams, it’s in our DNA. This investment shows the power of public-private partnerships and what we can accomplish when we work together. We’re proud to continue building on this shared commitment to community and the future of soccer in our region.”
