At Spain Rush-SPF, one of our core missions is to make access to professional soccer careers affordable and achievable for players worldwide, regardless of their origins.


This past season, fourteen talented Korean soccer players joined our academy, showcasing remarkable skill and dedication. Some were aligned with semi-professional teams, while others competed in junior high-level categories, making substantial impacts.


Among these, two standout players, Hyeongoh-Ley and Seungmin, earned prestigious tryouts with La Liga’s Levante UD for spots in their Under-19 Junior Team—a critical stepping stone toward professional contracts. This marked Hyeongoh-Ley's second year with us, a period marked by significant adaptation and recovery from a challenging injury, yet resulting in a remarkable performance at Rocafort CF in the Under-19 second division, where he scored four goals in just two months.

Seungmin, in his inaugural year and under eighteen, trained both with SPF and CF Torre Levante UD Junior team, one of the top teams in the Honor Division, preparing diligently for his upcoming season.

Other players like Lim, Lee, Yunaje Cho, and Ko have been training as part of CF San José and Massanassa CF—some of the most successful academy-level teams in Valencia. Their hard work and SPF’s tailored training program prepare them for semi-professional engagements and professional tryouts in the near future.
