Youth
Zavala's father, Carlos “Chino” Zavala, played professionally for Deportivo Toluca F.C. When his father retired from professional soccer, he moved the family to Santa Ana, California. In 1988, Zavala graduated from Saddleback High School where he played on the school's football and soccer teams. He also played club soccer with Colo-Colo of Orange County.[1] Zavala attended Cal State Los Angeles, playing on the men's soccer team. He graduated in 1992 with a bachelor's degree in kinesiology.

In 1992, Zavala signed with Deportivo Toluca F.C. In 1994, Zavala played for the East Los Angeles Cobras in the USISL. In 1995, he joined the Arizona Sandsharks of the Continental Indoor Soccer League. On January 13, 1996, Zavala signed with the Tampa Bay Terror at the midpoint of the 1995-1996 National Professional Soccer League.[2] He continued to play for the Terror through the 1996–1997 season, leading the team in scoring despite playing as a defender/defensive midfielder. During the summer of 1996, Zavala played for the Jacksonville Cyclones in the USISL Select League. In April 1997, the Seattle SeaDogs selected Zavala in the Continental Indoor Soccer League draft.[3] On June 2, 1997, the SeaDogs traded Zavala to the Houston Hotshots for a 1998 second round draft pick and cash.[4] However, Zavala ended up playing for the Indiana Twisters that season.
