Valencia CF Experience DECEMBER 2025

Players train with UEFA-licensed Valencia CF coaches at Ciutat Esportiva de Paterna, the official training ground where the club develops its academy talent. They compete in matches against local Spanish teams, live together as a group, and explore Valencia — all in a safe, well-organized environment.

The program is for boys and girls ages 6–16 who play at a club or competitive level and want to take their game further.

It’s a soccer-focused trip through and through. Training, games, and football activities fill each day — this isn’t a vacation with some soccer added in. It’s built for real learning and growth.

Off the field, players gain independence, confidence, and maturity, while building friendships and memories that last well beyond the trip.

What Players Will Get from the Valencia CF Experience:

Train at the Ciutat Esportiva de Paterna – Valencia CF’s Elite Training Ground

Players will train at the Ciutat Esportiva de Paterna, Valencia CF's state-of-the-art training complex located just outside the city of Valencia. Spanning over 180,000 square meters, this facility is the daily training site for Valencia CF’s first team, academy squads, and women's teams.

Elite Coaching with Valencia CF Academy Coaches

During the trip, players will have 5 to 6 focused training sessions, all designed to help them improve real skills — things like technique, decision-making, and how they move on the field.

The sessions are run by official Valencia CF Academy coaches — the same coaches who work with the club’s youth players every day. They follow the training methods Valencia uses to prepare players for the highest level, so it’s a great opportunity to learn from the best in a professional environment.

Not Just a Fun Touristic Trip – It’s Soccer Every Day, Everywhere

Alongside the 5–6 pro sessions with Valencia CF coaches, players will join daily soccer activities led by our own UEFA-licensed coaches — including beach soccer, extra training, and small-sided games.

There are no off days from soccer. Whether it’s on the field, sand, or in workshops, your child will be fully immersed in the game from start to finish.

Safe and Supervised From Start to Finish

From airport arrival to the final goodbye, your child is under the care of our dedicated 24/7 staff and chaperones. Every part of the experience is structured, secure, and designed for safety, so you can feel fully at ease.

Explore Valencia & Exclusive Valencia CF Store Visit

Beyond the field, players will enjoy a guided and fully supervised city tour of Valencia — visiting landmarks like the historic city center, the City of Arts and Sciences, and local markets. It’s a fun and educational break from training that also helps kids grow more independent and make lasting memories.

They’ll also visit the official Valencia CF Puma store, where they’ll get a 15% discount on gear — a perfect chance to grab a meaningful souvenir from the trip.

Competitive Matches Against Spanish Youth Teams

Beyond training, players will face 3–4 real matches against strong youth teams from Valencia and nearby towns — fast, competitive games played at the opponents’ home fields.

It’s a true test of skill and mindset, with real pressure and intensity. Parents are welcome to watch — seeing your child compete in a Valencia CF kit, holding their own in Spain, is an unforgettable moment.

All-Inclusive Accommodation & Meals

Players stay in a 4-star hotel with teammates, enjoy a Mediterranean buffet (3 meals/day), and all travel is handled by private buses. The hotel also hosts team meetings and opening/closing ceremonies — everything in one place. We take care of everything: comfortable housing, healthy meals, and structured daily routines. No logistics or planning on your part — just one fully organized experience handled by experienced professionals.

Training Kit, Certificate & Proud Accomplishment

Players receive an official Valencia CF training kit and a certificate of completion — something they’ll wear and display with pride, knowing they were part of something elite.

Mestalla Stadium Tour

Players will visit Mestalla Stadium, the iconic home of Valencia CF, for a guided behind-the-scenes tour. They’ll walk through the players’ tunnel, visit the locker rooms, and stand on the pitch where La Liga matches are played.

It’s a fun and inspiring experience — and for many, a moment they’ll remember forever.

Train in Style: Official Valencia CF Kit

Each player gets a full Puma Valencia CF kit — jersey, shorts, and socks. It’s what they’ll wear for training, games, and proudly after the trip.

Why Parents Trust Valencia CF: A Proven, Professional, and Safe Path to Development

When choosing a program for your child abroad, nothing matters more than knowing they’ll be in good hands, growing on and off the field, and getting real value from the experience. Valencia CF is one of Europe’s most respected football clubs — with a legacy of success in La Liga and one of the top youth academies in the world.

The Valencia CF Academy ranks #4 in all of Europe for player development (CIES Football Observatory), and has produced stars like David Silva, Jordi Alba, Ferran Torres, and more. Your child will train in this very environment — safely supervised, professionally coached, and surrounded by a culture that builds both skill and character.

This isn’t a vacation—it’s a transformational sports journey trusted by thousands of families who want the best for their young athletes.
