What is your favorite memory with Kaptiva Sports Academy?
We attended the Mediterranean International Cup tournament to see our son play for the first time with the Cadet team. The tournament was great, and we were thrilled to see how much Matt has improved in the 6 months since he started at KSA, having come back from a year-long knee injury. What we loved most of all was seeing the genuine, life-long bonds our son has developed with his teammates (his brothers), his coaches, and the entire Kaptiva staff. Sending our fifteen-year-old son thousands of miles from home was not an easy decision, but we KNOW that was the best decision we have ever made. Matt is now a more independent, responsible, and confident young man both on and off the soccer field. He is surrounded by people from all over the world who truly support and care about him both as a player and a person; that is the truest definition of FAMILY!
What is the biggest lesson you have learned while with Kaptiva Sports Academy?
The biggest lesson learned is how much Kaptiva Sports truly cares about their players both on and off the field. They are always looking for ways to improve and expand their program as well as provide opportunities for our kids to develop as players and individuals.Why did you choose Kaptiva Sports Academy?
Our son attended Kaptiva Sports/FC Barcelona camps for three consecutive summers in the U.S. Matt was selected by the camp coaches to travel to Spain to play in their spring tournaments where he had a chance to talk to the Kaptiva Sports Academy staff about the academy program. It was always his dream to play overseas and work toward a professional career; we knew the only way for his dream to ever be possible was to offer him the amazing opportunities that KSA can and does provide; opportunities that Matt could never get here in the U.S.
