Team History
Early Soccer in Portland and First MLS Seasons
Professional soccer in Portland started with the original Timbers team. They played in the NASL from 1975 to 1982. In their first year, they reached the championship game, Soccer Bowl '75, but lost. After that, F.C. Portland played from 1985 to 1990. Soccer then took a break until 2001, when the USL Timbers were founded. They played in Division 2 soccer until 2010.
The Timbers joining MLS was a big step. It came after almost two years of work by Merritt Paulson. He bought the USL Timbers in 2007. A key part of getting an MLS team was needing a better stadium.
On March 20, 2009, the Portland Timbers were announced as the eighteenth team in Major League Soccer. This was announced by Commissioner Don Garber. The team kept the name Portland Timbers.
John Spencer became the first head coach on August 10, 2010. Gavin Wilkinson, who coached the D-2 Pro League Timbers, became the general manager.
The Timbers signed five players before the MLS Expansion Draft in November 2010. They also picked 10 players from other teams in the Expansion Draft. In the 2011 MLS SuperDraft, Portland picked Darlington Nagbe as their second choice.
The Timbers played their first MLS game on March 19, 2011. They lost 3–1 to the Colorado Rapids. Kenny Cooper scored the first MLS goal for the Timbers. In their first season, Portland finished 6th in the Western Conference.
On July 9, 2012, John Spencer was fired. Gavin Wilkinson took over as interim coach. The Timbers finished 2012 with a tough record. However, they won the Cascadia Cup in MLS for the first time.
The Caleb Porter Years (2013–2017)
The 2013 season started with a new head coach, Caleb Porter. He had coached the U.S. U-23 team before. Under Porter, the Timbers did very well in 2013. They finished first in the Western Conference. A very important player was Diego Valeri, who joined the team that season. The Timbers also made their first MLS playoff appearance. They beat their rivals, Seattle Sounders FC, in the semifinals. They lost in the conference finals to Real Salt Lake. Because of their success, the Timbers qualified for the 2014–15 CONCACAF Champions League. This was their first international tournament.
In 2014, the Timbers struggled. They had a slow start and missed the playoffs. They finished 6th in the Western Conference. In the 2014–15 CONCACAF Champions League, they were eliminated in the group stage. Before the next season, they focused on starting strong. They signed new players like Nat Borchers and Adam Larsen Kwarasey.
MLS Cup Champions (2015)
The 2015 season was special. It was the team's fifth year in MLS and the fortieth year of the Timbers' history.
The Timbers started 2015 without key players Diego Valeri and Will Johnson due to injuries. They returned later in the season. In the US Open Cup, Portland beat Seattle 3–1 in overtime. The Timbers made it to the MLS Playoffs again. They finished third in the Western Conference.
Portland played Sporting Kansas City in the playoffs. The game went to penalty kicks after a 2–2 tie in overtime. The shootout lasted 11 rounds! Goalkeeper Kwarasey scored the winning goal and made the winning save. This game is known as "The Double Post." The Timbers then beat Vancouver Whitecaps FC to reach the Conference Finals. They defeated FC Dallas to become Western Conference Champions. This sent them to their first-ever MLS Cup.
The Timbers won the 2015 MLS Cup against Columbus Crew SC 2–1. Diego Valeri scored the fastest goal in MLS Cup history. Rodney Wallace scored another goal. Portland won their first MLS Cup. They were the first team from the Cascadia rivalry to win the championship.

After the Championship (2016–17)
After winning the MLS Cup, some key players left the Timbers. The 2016 season started with a win against Columbus Crew SC. However, the team struggled on the road and had many injuries. They did not win a single away game that season. They finished 12th overall and missed the playoffs.
In 2017, the team worked to improve its defense and midfield. They signed Roy Miller, David Guzmán, and Sebastián Blanco. Midfielder Diego Valeri had an amazing season. He scored in nine games in a row, setting a new MLS record. Portland made the playoffs again. They finished first in the Western Conference and won the Cascadia Cup for the second time. They were eliminated by the Houston Dynamo in the semifinals. Diego Valeri won the Landon Donovan MVP award for his great performance.
After the season, coach Caleb Porter resigned on November 16, 2017.
The Giovanni Savarese Years (2018–2023)
On December 18, 2017, Giovanni Savarese became the new head coach. In 2018, the Timbers started slowly but finished strong. They reached the MLS Cup final again on December 8, 2018, but lost 2–0 to Atlanta United.
The 2019 season was affected by big renovations to Providence Park. The stadium added 4,000 new seats. Because of this, the Timbers played their first 12 games away from home. They finished 6th in the Western Conference and lost in the playoffs to Real Salt Lake.
The 2020 Major League Soccer season started with a win and a loss. Then, the season was paused because of the COVID-19 pandemic in North America. MLS then held a special "MLS is Back Tournament" in Florida.
Portland was in a tough group with LAFC, LA Galaxy, and the Houston Dynamo. The Timbers won two games and tied one, finishing first in their group. In the knockout rounds, they beat FC Cincinnati in a penalty shootout. Then they defeated New York City FC 3–1. In the semifinals, they beat the Philadelphia Union 2–1.
In the MLS is Back Tournament final, Portland played Orlando City. Larrys Mabiala scored first for Portland. Orlando tied it, but Dario Župarić scored the winning goal for the Timbers. Portland won 2–1 and became the MLS is Back Tournament champions!
In 2021, the Timbers finished fourth in the Western Conference. They made it to their third MLS Cup final. For the first time since 1977, Portland hosted the championship game. They played New York City FC. The game ended 1–1 after extra time. Portland lost the Cup after a 4–2 penalty shootout.
The Phil Neville Years (2024–Present)
The Timbers started their 2024 season with a 4–1 win against the Colorado Rapids.
Team Colors and Badge
The Portland Timbers' MLS logo uses parts of their old USL design. The round shape means unity and perfection. The axe honors the Pacific Northwest's logging industry. The three V-shapes look like a pine tree and stand for the three leagues the Timbers have been in: the original NASL, the United Soccer Leagues, and Major League Soccer. The team's colors, ponderosa green and moss green, represent Oregon's beautiful forests.

Home Stadium
The Timbers play at Providence Park in downtown Portland. They share it with the Portland Thorns women's team. Providence Park has been a sports ground since 1893. It became a full stadium in 1926. It is the oldest soccer-specific stadium in Major League Soccer. It is also one of the most historic fields used by any U.S. professional soccer team.
The stadium has hosted many important soccer events. These include the Soccer Bowl '77, the 1999 and 2003 FIFA Women's World Cup games. It also hosted the 2014 MLS All-Star Game and MLS Cup 2021. Providence Park has been home to all Portland Timbers teams since 1975.
In July 2009, the Portland City Council approved a $31 million renovation. This made the stadium ready for the 2011 Major League Soccer season. Its seating capacity was 18,627 in 2011 and grew to 20,323 in 2012.
On February 10, 2014, the Timbers signed a deal with Providence Health & Services. The stadium will be called Providence Park until at least 2028.
In December 2017, the Portland City Council approved an $85 million expansion. This project added 4,000 more seats. This increased the total capacity by 20%. The Timbers had a long waiting list for season tickets.
The new steel stand was inspired by famous stadiums like Boca Juniors' La Bombonera. It also looked like Shakespeare's Globe Theatre. This created a unique layered look. The green seats on the East End spell out "SC USA". This is a nod to Portland being known as "Soccer City USA."
The expanded Providence Park opened on July 1, 2019. The Timbers hosted LAFC and sold out all 25,218 seats. This expansion made Providence Park the 4th largest soccer-specific stadium in MLS. The renovation added three new seating decks, new video boards, and an updated roof.

Team Culture
Supporters
The Timbers sold out every home game from 2011 until the 2020–2021 pandemic. This was a league record of 163 games in a row. The Timbers limit season ticket sales to 15,300. At one point, they had a waiting list of 10,000 people.
The main fan group for the Portland Timbers is the Timbers Army. They are known for their loud and excited support. They create a lively atmosphere at games. The Timbers Army is often called one of the best fan groups in the country.
The Timbers Army started in 2001 as the Cascade Rangers. They gathered in section 107 of PGE Park. They wanted to create a European-style fan section. This included drumming, flags, scarves, and constant chanting. By 2002, they changed their name to the Timbers Army. By 2012, the Timbers Army had over 4,000 members on game days.
In 2019, the Timbers Army had a disagreement with MLS. It was about using the Iron Front symbol on their flags. MLS banned this symbol along with other political signs. The Timbers Army argued that standing against fascism, racism, and sexism was not political. They protested by staying silent for the first 33 minutes of a game against Seattle. This was to remember 1933, when the Iron Front group was ended.
After the protests, MLS officials met with the Timbers Army. A month later, MLS changed its policy. They allowed the Iron Front symbol again. This was a rare time in American sports when a fan group directly challenged the league and caused a change.
Rivalries
The Cascadia Cup is a trophy for the best team among the Timbers, Seattle Sounders FC, and Vancouver Whitecaps FC. These three teams are from the Cascadia region. They were rivals in the original NASL in the 1970s and in the USL from 2001 to 2008.
In 2004, fans of the three clubs created the Cascadia Cup. It is given to the team with the best record against the other two each year. The Cup moved to MLS in 2011 when all three teams joined the league. Portland has won the Cup six times: in 2009, 2010, 2012, 2017, 2022, and 2024.
Portland was the first team in Cascadia to win the MLS Cup in 2015.
Seattle Sounders
The Portland Timbers have a long rivalry with Seattle Sounders FC. It goes all the way back to 1975 in the original NASL. Because the two cities are close, fans from both sides create intense atmospheres when they visit the other stadium. Many players say this is one of the truest rivalries in American soccer.
The Seattle-Portland rivalry became even bigger in the 2013 MLS playoffs. The Timbers beat their rivals in their first MLS playoff match-up. In the 2018 Western Conference Semifinals, Portland again beat Seattle in a dramatic game that went to penalty kicks.
Portland has never lost to Seattle in the MLS Playoffs.
Vancouver Whitecaps
Vancouver Whitecaps FC is the third Cascadian team. They moved to MLS with Portland in 2011. They also compete for the Cascadia Cup. Portland and Vancouver's rivalry started in 1975.
Compared to the Seattle rivalry, the Portland-Vancouver rivalry is seen as "friendlier." Fans from both clubs have even celebrated together. One reason for this might be that Portland is closer to Seattle than Vancouver. As of 2020, Portland has a better record against Vancouver in MLS games.
Many Whitecaps players see the Timbers as their biggest rival. In the Timbers' 2015 MLS Cup run, they beat Vancouver in the semifinals.
Other Teams
Portland fans often dislike teams from Los Angeles. This is true in MLS as well. Portland had tough games against LAFC in 2018 and 2019. In January 2020, Timbers midfielder Sebastian Blanco said LAFC was Portland's biggest rival outside of Cascadia. He said he loves playing against them and the LA Galaxy. In the 2020 MLS is Back Tournament, Portland played both LAFC and LA Galaxy. They beat the Galaxy and tied LAFC, then went on to win the tournament.
Team Mascot
During the NASL and USL years, the team's mascot was a lumberjack named Timber Jim. He retired on January 24, 2008.
Timber Joey became the new official mascot on June 14, 2008. He continues Jim's tradition of cutting a "cookie" (a round slice) from a large log with a chainsaw every time the Timbers score a goal. This cookie is given to the player who scored after the game. If the team does not let the other team score (a shutout), the goalkeeper also gets a cookie. Timber Joey has his own special jersey.
Broadcasting Games
Since 2023, all Timbers matches can be watched on MLS Season Pass on the Apple TV app. Before that, Timbers games were often shown on local TV in Portland.
Before 2023, games not shown on national TV were broadcast by Root Sports Northwest. Some games were also shown on Fox affiliate KPTV (channel 12) or MyNetworkTV affiliate KPDX (channel 49). The team also had a network that showed games in other parts of Oregon.
On the radio, all Timbers games are broadcast in English on KXL (750 AM). They are also broadcast in Spanish on KXET (1150 AM and 93.FM). KXL also has a weekly radio show about the team called Talk Timbers.
