Football Program Information
⚽ Camp & Course Focus
The main goal of our football camp and course is to improve individual football technique, combined with plenty of activity, fun, and making new friends from across Croatia and Europe 🌍
The focus of the camp and course is entirely on the individual player, their development and technical progress — not on team results or match outcomes.
🧠 Our Methodology – Brazilian Training Style
Training sessions are based on a specialized program inspired by Brazilian methods and style, with focus on:
- ⚽ complete ball mastery
- 👣 equal use of both feet
- 🔄 turns, direction changes and explosive movement
- 🧩 football intelligence and quick decision-making
- 🎯 technical confidence in all game situations
At the camp, children learn football moves and ball control techniques that help them beat opponents more easily, create space and play with greater confidence under pressure.
Our goal is to broaden each player’s understanding of football technique, so they leave the camp knowing how to train and what to focus on for continuous improvement.
🔥 What Players Learn at the Camp
During the camp, players will master:
- ✅ 50+ essential Brazilian football skills
- ⚽ dribbling and ball control at different speeds
- 🌀 feints and 1v1 moves
- 🔄 turns and direction changes
- 📥 a specific method for improving the first touch
🎶 Everything is taught in a fun and relaxed environment, often with samba music.
No pressure — but with clear structure and purpose.
📈 Why Players Improve Faster
Compared to traditional club training:
- 🔁 players perform hundreds of technical repetitions
- ⚽ achieve tens of thousands of additional ball touches
- 👤 focus is on each individual, not just the team
- 🧠 technique, thinking and confidence develop simultaneously
The result is visible even during the camp – more confident, faster and more creative play.
🏆 Football Skills Competition
The camp includes a football skills competition, organized by age groups.
Disciplines include:
- ⚽ ball control challenges
- 🏃 dribbling
- 🔺 obstacle courses
- 📥 passing and receiving
- 🔄 turns and feints
The competition is held in a fun and positive atmosphere, without any pressure.
🥇🥈🥉 1st, 2nd and 3rd place in each age group win a trophy.
