The moment many have been waiting for has arrived. Finally… The season begins at KSA! The boys are already at the academy, preparing to start training and everything that lies ahead throughout the year. On behalf of the staff, we are eager to welcome this new season and begin our activities.
We already told you that the new players arrived with their families and have begun their routine and cohabitation in the residence. The veterans are surely taking care of welcoming them and bringing them up to speed. They have been arriving since last Monday and many are joining their clubs. Tomorrow, Wednesday 3rd September, training will begin at Kaptiva Sports Academy.
The season begins at KSA with new dynamics in the residence
If anything defines a good football academy for young people, it is its ability to innovate, both on and off the pitch. That is why this year there will be new surprises to encourage good behaviour in the residence and skills during training sessions.
Regarding the first aspect, last season you already met some of the winners of the KSA Cards Ranking. This evaluated different aspects such as room cleanliness and respect for common areas, among other things. This year, in addition to this dynamic, a team routine will be promoted, similar to the houses at Hogwarts in the Harry Potter films. In this way, points will be awarded per team and the results will be seen at the end of the year.
On the other hand, each week the coaches will determine how well the training sessions have gone on an individual level. They will evaluate each player and, at the end of the month, they will reveal Kaptiva Sports Academy’s ideal starting eleven as a reward. This will motivate the players to improve their skills and show what they are capable of.
KSA players will face new and old tournaments
Even though they have only just arrived, the players are sure to be eager to train hard so they can give their all in the tournaments. Before the end of the year, we will be welcoming the Johan Cruyff Football Tournament 2025. This new participation is very exciting for all of us, so both staff and players will be giving their all on the pitch.
Later on, of course, we will face off against other top-level teams at MIC 2026. We would like to remind you that this year’s achievement was to get all four of our teams through to the final phase, proving that Kaptiva Sports Academy has a lot to say.
We can also reveal, although no date has been confirmed, that Real Madrid and Bayern Munich will welcome us to their home grounds for two exciting training clinics. In both Madrid and Munich, the boys will learn how these teams train and enjoy cultural activities in both cities.
Soon, we will be sharing more details about these and other activities, as well as life at the Kaptiva Sports Academy residence. The season begins at KSA! We hope that you are as excited as we are about all these new developments. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at any time.
