Training
The training program of this Chelsea Performance camp is reserved for players aged 15 to 17. There are two available programs, but they share a common core of 24 hours of soccer training and matches. So, players will spend 24 hours on the field, divided between training and soccer matches.
Next, the program will differ depending on the chosen option:
- 100% Soccer Program: 24 hours of soccer training and matches + 8 hours of theoretical workshops with the Chelsea FC Foundation to better understand the world of soccer : physical preparation, nutrition, athlete hygiene, etc.
- Soccer+ English Program: 24 hours of soccer training and matches + 13 hours of English classes with certified teachers
The daily schedule is divided the same way for both programs:
- Morning Training
- Afternoon English Classes or Chelsea FC Workshops (+ recovery session)
- Evening Training
The afternoon break allows for recovery and the prevention of injuries and fatigue sensations. This ensures that all players have the same amount of time on the field.
Training sessions are diverse, including technical exercises, tactical drills, and themed practice matches to apply what has been learned during exercises. Chelsea FC coaches are all certified and will push your children to give their best during training. These are intensive training sessions that await them. All players will leave the camp with significant progress in various aspects: understanding of the game, tactical and technical skills, as well as preparation and recovery. The mental aspect is also crucial in Chelsea camps, and your child will gain confidence and better emotional control. This includes yoga sessions as part of the program.
It’s a very comprehensive soccer camp in an international environment, with young participants from around the world, allowing for both sporting and personal development.
Coaches and coaching method
The Chelsea FC soccer camp program has been designed by the coaches of the Chelsea FC Foundation and approved by the professional team’s staff. It is a program that follows the philosophy of the first team with a focus on quick ball movement, while also working on technique, small-sided games, and game understanding.
The coaches who will supervise and train your children all hold the highest coaching qualifications and have been approved by Chelsea. They will not only develop your children’s soccer skills but also their mental aspects. All players must align with the club’s values.
Staff and activities
The Chelsea FC Foundation staff is available 24/7 with your children, both on and off the field. They are responsible for supervising them and ensuring that everything goes smoothly in their daily routines.
They will be there from wake-up until bedtime, offering activities during their free time or simply addressing their needs. Their primary goal is to ensure that all children have an enjoyable experience on the campus.
Trips and days out
Excursions are always highlights of the Chelsea FC Performance soccer camp, and they are even more special in our program.
All children will have the opportunity to spend a day at the official Chelsea FC training center. They will train for a full day on the same fields used by the professional team. An unforgettable moment that leaves a lasting impression on all our children every year. Additionally, they will also visit the Chelsea FC stadium and its museum: Stamford Bridge Stadium.
All players will also enjoy a London Experience: a tour of London.
For our players attending the two-week camp, they will have two additional excursions: a day at an amusement park and a second, different London Experience from the first one.
Language Class
The Chelsea FC Performance soccer camp is available with the Soccer + English program. Your child will have 24 hours of soccer training and 13 hours of English classes, making it the perfect program to combine enjoyment and skill development.
The English classes are all taught by highly qualified and native-speaking teachers. They will use the CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning) method, which is used in some of the world’s top schools. This approach involves project-based learning centered around sports while making progress in English.
There are approximately 12 students per class with a maximum of 14, ensuring a highly personalized approach. A final report will be provided to take home and share with parents.
Finally, your child will be in an entirely English-speaking environment during their camp. The learning experience will be continuous, and you will see a real improvement compared to their arrival.
