Spend three months in Spain training with Barcelona academy UE Sant Andreu and playing matches with the ESS Barcelona Residency team. Train in the morning with ESS staff and at night with UE Sant Andreu academy teams. Play weekly matches against top competition in Catalonia, Spain, along with the FIT Promises Tournament, the Mediterranean International Cup (MIC), and two friendly matches during a five day tour to England.

Weekly gym sessions, video analysis, and player evaluations assure players are pushed to their best level. The work off the field is just as important, with daily study hall and three days of Spanish language courses per week.
