The Lignano Sabbiadoro camp is slightly further away from Venice, a one hour and a quarter drive from Venice. This seaside town is famous for its golden beaches. It is halfway between Venice and Trieste.
Both locations are ideal for dropping off your kids and then going off to visit one of the most romantic cities in the world, Venice.ย
Venice is an incredible city, made up of 121 islands. A network of canals links all these islands, making up the Venetian region’s capital. Gondolas, basilicas, unique architecture, glass blowing, there is a lot to do and see in this charming Italian city.
Accommodation
In the Lido di Jesolo edition of the camp, the youngsters will be hosted at the Villagio Marzotto, a beach resort with a huge swimming pool.
The campers will sleep in double rooms.ย
In Lignano Sabbiadoro, the campers will be hosted at the 3-star Bella Italia EFA Village, at the “Holiday-Sports Village”.
It has all sorts of facilities that you would expect from a seaside town, like a swimming pool, a 60 acre forest, a private beach, a multi-sports hall…
Children sleep in double rooms or 4-person rooms with two bunk beds.
The sporting Facilities
For the Lignano Sabbiadoro camp, the campers will train at the Bella Italia sports centre, which is located within the complex. Everything is within walking distance!
At the Jesolo Lido camp, the pitch is also within the Villagio Marzotto. This is convenient because the kids can also walk from the accommodation to the grass pitch.
Catering and food
In the full-board version of the camp, all meals are included, meaning breakfast, lunch, afternoon snack and dinner.
Half-boarders will receive lunch and an afternoon snack.
It is worth noting that any and allย allergies and dietary requirements are taken into account.ย Just remember to indicate them in the sign up sheets.

Training
Every day, the kids will have one training session in the morning and one in the evening.ย
On the last day, the youngsters will play an eleven a side friendly matches before the closing and prizegiving ceremony.
After the players step on the pitch for their first training session, they will perform tests based on their age to see what skill group they belong to. Then, the groups will be readjusted to make sure everyone is in the right group. Of course, players that perform particularly well throughout the camp will go up groups. The idea is to have balanced and fair groups of players.
The kids will be put into 3 groups:
- 7 to 8 year olds: They will mostly train the basics of football: ball control, passing, dribbling, shooting.. the fundamentals.
- 9 to 11 year olds: The intermediate campers will work on their ball skills too, but also their technical and tactical skills thanks to theory sessions that are then implemented in 3v3 or 2v2 match ups. Man marking in defensive phases will also be taught for example, as well as positioning off the ball in attacking phases.
- 12 to 16 year olds: Finally, the oldest campers will deepen their tactical and technical training with exercises and drills that are more intense and advanced. Match ups will be more frequent in order to put what they are learning into practice.
There will also be a specific program for goalkeepers, who require very different exercises and drills to improve!
Coaches and coaching method
All coaches at the camp will have been trained based on the AC Milan mentality and method, created for these football camps.ย Indeed, the AC Milan Academy has created a method for developing the different aspects that young players need to develop at its innovation and development centre. There are four main components:
- Athletic development
- Technical and tactical development
- Mental strength
- Behaviour on and off the pitch
It is on these four pillars that the coaches will base their training sessions on during the week.
It is worth pointing out that all the coaches at the camp areย qualified and supervised by ex professional players.ย
Staff and activities
There will be staff members dedicated to taking care of the campers outside of the training sessions.ย They will organise game and activities every evening,ย which is very beneficial to the blossoming friendships between campers.
Also, there will be an educator that will take care of the youngest campers.
Trips and days out
Considering the lovely seaside setting of the camp, the staff will organise some beach trips. These will depend on the weather: it is better for them to be having fun swimming in the sea when it’s swelteringly hot rather than sweating on the pitch.
