Soccer Tryouts in the United Arab Emirates

November 8, 2019

 

This week Spanish Pro Football Academy moves to Abu Dhabi , which is the capital and second-most populous city in the United Arab Emirates, with the help of Regional Sports , our official partner for the realization of a series of tryouts for young soccer promises. In addition to SPF, other international academies and professional clubs have attended the event intending to attract possible players for their teams.

 

Soccer Tryouts are a very powerful experience for all young players trying their luck in professional soccer.

In our case, the SPF will study at soccer players to give up to 2 temporary scholarships or a single scholarship of longer duration to come to Spain with us and be part of the academy.

For the granting of the scholarship, our General Manager, Rubén Estellés , and Carlos De Lera , SPF International Relation, have moved there. They will both be responsible for evaluating the skills of the players and thus award these scholarships.

Certainly, Spain is a great opportunity to become a Top Player in one of the best league in the World, LaLiga. Inside Spain, there are specific regions with important clusters related to the soccer world. One of these regions is the Valencian Community and the city, Valencia.

Stories about SPF Academy players:

One of our players, that participated in a Soccer Tryout in Spain in 2018 told us that:

When I arrived in Spain 1 year ago, I was an aspiring footballer with a lot to learn and a long way to go. Through the hard work of myself and the SPF staff, I am proudly able to say that I have matured and improved immensely. I know that if I continue on this path I’ll be one step closer to my goal. It’s been an experience that I’ll never forget and I’ll always be grateful for.
