Spanish Soccer Schools have kicked off their sixth season and parents can enroll their children to the highly-popular programme.

The School has established themselves as one of the leading football academies in the UAE and it’s easy why it attracts big numbers every year.

Overseen by former Real Madrid and Spain defender Michel Salgado and his experienced team, aspiring footballers can see for themselves why it’s highly rated.

Training at the state-of-the-art football facilities at Dubai Sports City, they follow the same philosophy and training methods used by Spain that saw their national team win the Euro 2008 and 2012 titles as well as the 2010 World Cup.

Their holistic philosophy ensures that children’s all-round development needs are met through sport. As well as learning the basic skills like passing, shooting and defending, the School also emphasises on the importance of sporting values, team spirit and togetherness – skills that will be crucial in everyday life.

Term one has already just begin but having overseen the programmes, Salgado insists there are plenty of positives on why parents should sign up their children.

“We are going into our sixth season of Spanish Soccer Schools and it’s been great to see it progress,” said Salgado, who is the director of Spanish Soccer Schools Dubai.

“We’ve been working hard and successfully developing kids step by step. The Spanish Soccer Schools are my passion and I’m looking forward to working with the young players this term.”

Children can look forward to playing in a fully air-conditioned indoor dome with a natural grass pitch as well as an outdoor pitch with artificial grass.

Days and times vary on each age group with the price costing Dh2,000 per week per team. Term One runs until December 14 while the second begins in January and will run until May.

Given the location, parents can also visit Kickers Bar and Champs café while they kids learn and play the game during their classes.
