Recommendations:

Peter Messina, U18 Club Marin: “I like the whole atmosphere because it is based around Real Madrid, and soccer, and it is what I love. We focused on our mind and inputting it into a real game situation. We always worked to the games.”

Luis Barrazza, Marin Catholic High School and ODP: (When I was in Europe) “In tournaments we just played games against other teams, at the camp you learned more, at the tournament you just used what you already knew.”

Alex Mayock, U18 Central Marin Bandits and ODP: “ It was fun, the coaching was fun, the playing all the time was fun, everything was just soccer, it was just fun! It was all around one of the greatest experiences I ever had going to Europe.”

Iban Palomero, Salamanca Second Division, Real Madrid Monitor 2002. “What is great about this opportunity is for Americans to be able to have a taste of Spanish Life, Culture, and Futbol. There is nowhere else in the world you can go and be coached by the most successful coaching staff in the world. The American kids, in my opinion, really come with wide open eyes since they do not really have anything like it at their home.”

*Parents are welcomed. We will help preplan their separate
itinerary as required while in camp *
