Foday Kabba, Director of Coaching

Foday has been part of the soccer community in the Portland area for over 20 years, since moving from Sierra Leone as a teenager.

As a stand-out club player and solid student, he was recruited to Gonzaga where he played. A career-ending knee injury cut short a possible professional career.

But Foday saw opportunity in adversity, and poured his passion for soccer, along with his time and talent, into building Kalabash Academy. Kalabash is a non-profit in West Africa working to create opportunity and build community through education and football. Foday is thrilled to be impacting the next generation of soccer youth on two continents, in two communities that love our sport.
