Kaptiva Sports Academy is a residential football program in Barcelona. Here, the boys not only study, train and live with each other, but also share many experiences outside the residence, such as tournaments or weekend excursions. To make sure that everything runs smoothly, the boys are accompanied by tutors. But what do these people actually do? It is important to understand the role of the tutors at Kaptiva Sports Academy.
To begin with, there are several tutors, divided between weekdays and weekends. All of them have specific training and experience to meet the needs of the children. In addition, they take care of order and ensure that everyone fulfils their responsibilities.
Implementing an established code of conduct
For everything to work, each individual must respect others. To do this, it is essential to follow a code of conduct based on ethics, empathy, humility and, as we have said, respect. The tutors ensure that all of this is carried out, instilling good values in the children.
This well-defined code of conduct reinforces positive behaviour, encourages self-discipline and responsibility, and provides a clear framework for resolving conflicts constructively. It promotes core values such as respect, integrity and teamwork, which are essential for personal growth and align with the principles of the academy.
There is no point in being a good student or a good football player if that person’s values are detrimental to others. The unique experience that is Kaptiva Sports Academy is continuously monitored by dedicated tutors who strive to ensure the best possible experience for all participants.
These tutors are available to listen and help, applying a set code of conduct when necessary. They focus on the personal development of the player, offering support that complements the work of the coaches and academic staff.
Mentors and confidants
The constant contact with the children helps to build a two-way relationship of trust. Not only do they teach discipline, consistency and good manners, but they serve as mentors and confidants, as well as role models, addressing the challenges of living in a diverse environment.
They are also the main channel of communication with families. On a regular basis, they schedule meetings with them to discuss the personal, educational and athletic development of the child in question. Always through sincerity, honesty and trust.
Because tutors are not an isolated entity. They are in continuous coordination with the rest of the team, i.e. coaches and academic tutors. This is the best way to ensure that each individual receives the appropriate care and support.
Kaptiva Sports Academy is a family
The fact that many players come back to the academy year after year is a good sign. It means that they are happy, that they want to spend more time surrounded by their teammates and always surrounded by football. But apart from that, it also means that they trust Kaptiva Sports and therefore our coaches and tutors.
The atmosphere at the residence is one of happiness, respect and empathy, and there is nothing healthier than growing up in such an environment. You will probably remember this experience for life, and every minute you spend here will be worth it.
We hope we have clarified the role of tutors at Kaptiva Sports Academy. They are certainly essential and help to develop our boys both on and off the pitch and, above all, to ensure that they enjoy their time at the Academy.
