Experience Overview

Elite Football Methodology

Players receive elite level individual and collective practices delivered by the official Academy coaches. The methodology focuses heavily on technical-tactical individual development organized by the Academy Coordinators, though players do not participate in official club competitions. Players within this boarding program focus on elite development. Due to FIFA’s international transfer regulations for minors, they compete exclusively in non-official matches and friendly tournaments.

Academic Excellence

Students enroll in highly prestigious and innovative partner schools, such as Colegio Liceo Europeo or Vermont Academy. Athletes can choose to pursue an IB International Baccalaureate, an American Baccalaureate, or the National Spanish curriculum.

Campus Life & Boarding

Athletes reside at the High-Performance Residence in San Sebastián de los Reyes, which features recreational areas, a leisure room, and a library. The environment is highly secure with 24/7 monitoring, strict discipline protocols, and constant pastoral care from a legal tutor and sports mentor.
