Multi-year partnership with Swerve Soccer and Bede’s Summer School to bring LaLiga coaching methodology to the south of England from 2022

London, UK 16/03/2021

For the first time, LaLiga will teach the Spanish brand of football to young players in the United Kingdom through LaLiga Camps UK, a football development project in partnership with Swerve Soccer and Bede’s School. 

Opening in the south of England in July 2022, LaLiga Camps will offer an immersive youth football experience for players from around the world aged 12-17.

Combining LaLiga’s coaching methodology with first-class facilities and unique linguistic and cultural immersion experiences, players will be able to enhance their footballing ability within a 360° training environment. 

LaLiga Camps UK will be run by UEFA Pro-certified LaLiga coaches alongside former professional players and advanced high-performance trainers.

English and Spanish-language education will be offered, as well as a chance for selected players to attend a 10-day training programme with the youth team of a LaLiga club in Spain. 

Allowing participants to enjoy the best of Spanish and British culture, LaLiga Camps residential attendees will also take part in various additional cultural excursions, including city visits and stadium tours, that create unforgettable lifetime experiences.
