Location
The camp takes place at the club’s training centre in Valencia, where the first team and the academy teams train as well.
Summers in Valencia tend to be dry and hot due to the Mediterranean climate. Although there are risks linked to the heat, they are in fact ideal conditions to train in because they help build up physical resistances, meaning that players will improve their fitness and stamina at a quicker rate. Coaches and camp staff will make sure that the players hydrate themselves properly.
The Valencian region has a very wide range of sights and activities that attract hundreds of thousands of tourists a year. One of its main attractions are the golden beaches and few can resist the warm water and inviting sand.
An unmissable attraction within Valencia is the City of the Arts and Sciences. It is made up of huge modern structures that will amaze you, with many translucent pools giving the whole place a unique feel. Inside, the main things to see are L’Hemisfèric which is a planetarium, IMAX Cinema, and the breathtaking L’Umbracle, a botanical collection of plant species native to Valencia.
Accommodation
The Residential Camp will include a stay at a hotel for the duration of the camp as well as the evening meal.
The sporting Facilities
As previously mentioned, the Cuidad Deportiva de Paterna, where the camp takes place, is the home of FC Valencia. Both Valencia B and their women’s team play their home games at Estadio Antonio Puchades which is in the training centre.
As well as the 3000 seat stadium, there are five full sized grass fields, one full sized artificial turf field and seven small artificial turf fields. This gives more than enough space for all sorts of training and for all positions. The sporting facilities are carefully looked after, and it will be an authentic taste of what professional facilities are like for high quality soccer players.
It is not just soccer fields on site, with Jacuzzi rooms, saunas, swimming pools, a massive gym and even a modern rehabilitation centre. It has been designed to be able to host every level of FC Valencia and therefore has everything a soccer player could possibly hope for.
Catering and food
Diet is a crucial part of becoming a quality soccer player or any other type of athlete, and that has been taken onboard by the cooks. They strive to offer quality food that is not just tasty but will provide the young athletes with everything they need to develop physically, and also to recover from the intensity of the soccer.
It is worth mentioning that in Spain, meal times tend to be later than in other places. This means that lunch will only be from 2 PM onwards. A morning and afternoon snack as well as lunch will be provided for all campers.
Safety and security
Almost all of the camp takes place within the Ciudad Deportiva de Paterna which means that everything is within walking distance, eliminating the need for public transport. Only authorised people will be allowed into the centre, and the staff will always be supervising the campers, so there should be no security concerns whatsoever.
The camp program
The essentials
- The trainings are provided by the coaches of the Valence Academy

- Free time provided for children’s rest
Training
The camp schedule was specifically designed in order to maximise learning about soccer and life in general and to maximise the campers’ enjoyment.
The players will create some lifelong memories and will also improve their soccer level and their social skills and understanding, considering how many international players flock to the Valencia camp. There will usually be two training sessions every day, which will be either technical or tactical. Technical sessions focus on improving a particular skill, such as shooting, passing or dribbling.
This will be done through drills and games and the coaches’ instruction which will then be reinforced in match like situations. This is a very simple technique for good reason: it works the best.
Tactical sessions are less simple and depend more on the players. Coaches will be trying to teach them about formations, roles that each player should fill, what it takes to really win a game and more.
It is a lot more simple to train technical skills because they do not require the use of the brain, whereas tactics need to be understood to be properly implemented. It is tactically that the improvement can be the greatest, and can often transform a good player into a fantastic player.
Staff and activities
During the week, the children will do many activities besides soccer. These are multi-sport and socio-educational activities with our instructors: swimming, games, conferences, video sessions, etc.
