Elite Soccer Academy

The participants go through the pro football training sessions, games, tournaments, skill sessions, and communal living; this has resulted in some notable victories for Academy teams in the matches organized against local English club teams.
 
They will learn through skill sessions, DVD presentations (where appropriate), team training, and making new friends from all over the world in a social soccer environment. The fundamentals of soccer will be taught in addition to the roles, positional play, teamwork, ball control, team, and individual techniques and the essence of fair play.We will also endeavor to arrange a visit to a pre-season professional game (as an optional extra/supplement).

From 2021 the Project International Academy will be based at Bethany School in Kent. Bethany is situated about 1 hour south of London between Tunbridge Wells and Ashford and is easily accessible to all the London airports.

Founded by the Reverend Joseph Kendon in 1866, Bethany is a co-educational day and boarding school set on a rural campus in the heart of the stunning Kent countryside. Occupying some 60 acres of the Weald, Bethany has a truly enviable site.

 Facilities at this picturesque campus include «state of the art» sports facilities, a brand new indoor swimming pool, and outdoor classrooms.
The recommended age range for this football camp – 10-16 years.
Very recently refurbished, rooms are of a good standard and consist of a mixture of single, doubles and a few triples. The rooms are spacious, airy, nicely decorated and comfortable and there are plenty of showers toilet facilities near to each room. Note we cannot guarantee specific rooms for any student in advance.
A structured evening program is offered, organized by our Director of Activities and supported by other staff, and will include such activities as discos, barbeques, film shows, sports, and games.
In addition to our top-quality coaching staff, we have our own staff on-site 24 hours a day.
A Programme Director will oversee all aspects of the program and they are in constant liaison with the coaches, the school representatives, caterers, group leaders, and the students themselves.
All staff is chosen for their ability to work with children and look after their various needs during the soccer camp. They are aware that students are away from home, some of them for the first time and pastoral care is a major priority.
Bethany School has an exceptional reputation for high-quality food in its excellent dining room. Emphasis is placed on a good dietary balance as well as popular food allowing for different cultural tastes. There are three meals provided each day with traditional English as well as continental breakfasts; lunch and dinner with hot/cold options, a vegetarian choice as well as a salad bar.
