The II VCF Academy World Cup is getting closer and closer and the first teams participating in this U12 tournament are arriving at the Ciutat Esportiva del Valencia CF. From Friday 30 June to Sunday 2 July, they will enjoy football and a multicultural experience that will give them a unique experience.   

The players from the VCF Soccer Academy in Houston, the VCF Soccer Academy in Seattle, the VCF Soccer Academy in New York and the VCF Soccer Academy in Canada have started this Monday the first of the training sessions that they will develop during these previous days in order to complete the experience.

"We are delighted to be able to come to Valencia and enjoy this II VCF Academy World Cup," said Joe Campos, Director of the VCF Academy in Seattle. "We feel like we are part of a family and it is a great opportunity for our players," he said. 

VCF Academy Elite Camp

In parallel to the VCF Academy World Cup, the VCF Elite Camp is taking place during these days where players from each of the teams will train at the Ciutat Esportiva de Paterna with the VCF Academy coaches to learn more about the working methodology that makes the VCF Academy one of the best in Europe, the sixth that trains the most players to compete at the elite level, according to the latest report from the CIES Football Observatory.

More than twenty players selected by their respective VCF Soccer Academy will have the opportunity to improve their technique and train like the professionals at the Ciutat Esportiva de Paterna.

II VCF Academy World Cup

The II VCF Academy World Cup brings together more than 150 players from America, Asia and different parts of Europe.

The official inauguration will take place on Thursday 29 June at the Camp de Mestalla, which celebrates its centenary in 2023, and between Friday 30 June and Sunday 2 July the competition will take place. This second edition aims to consolidate itself as a benchmark among international tournaments and aims to expand the brand image of Valencia CF and the Valencia CF Academy.

VCF Academy Programs

The VCF Academy World Cup serves to boost the expansion of the VCF Soccer Programs project, giving it greater visibility and offering an unforgettable experience to the players of the VCF Soccer Academies, Technical Partners and International Alliances.

The VCF Soccer Academies in strategic markets in North America, Europe, Africa and Asia are part of the VCF Soccer Academy Programs that help to expand the Valencia CF brand and what its colours symbolise globally. This Internationalisation Strategy has been a finalist in the World Football Summit Awards 2022.

The main objective of the VCF Soccer Academy Programs, in addition to expanding the image of Valencia CF and its philosophy around the world, is to take the training methods of Valencia CF to any part of the planet and spread the values that have always accompanied this Club, making the participants enjoy and learn from the hand of the best professionals of the Valencia CF Academy, one of the best in Europe according to the latest reports of the CIES Football Observatory.

The Valencia CF Soccer Camps, Training Stages, the VCF Soccer Academy and the Sports Consultancy services are just some examples of this great project.
