Summer at Madrid Euro Soccer Academy (MESA) kicked off strong! We set out to provide a high-performance experience for all the players who attended. We had soccer activities for every single day on the field and exciting and fun activities off of it, ensuring a positive environment and a culture of excellence and enjoyment.

A Balanced Approach to Development

‍

MESA’s summer camp prioritized a balanced approach, combining rigorous morning training sessions with enjoyable afternoon activities. Our goal is to build complete modern soccer players, pushing each one of them to their full potential during the demanding practice sessions. In the mornings, players engaged in challenging drills, focusing on technical skills, tactical understanding, and physical conditioning, all under the guidance of expert MESA coaches.

‍

The focus on balance extended beyond the field. Afternoons were reserved for fun activities, giving players the chance to unwind and bond. This approach not only helped players recover physically but also created bonds with other campers. The mix of hard work and relaxation was carefully curated to create the ideal environment for young players to thrive.

A Camp Full of Memorable Moments

With so many fantastic moments across all the different camps and sites, there were two that really stood out for us. The first was the tough competitive matches in Villarejo, which tested the players’ skills and teamwork. The intensity of the match was balanced by a relaxing afternoon at the swimming pool, where players could cool off and enjoy some downtime.

‍

Another highlight was the afternoon spent at Los Ángeles de San Rafael. Here, the players immersed themselves in different aquatic activities, including kayaking and enjoying a floating water park on the lake. These activities were not only fun but also helped to build teamwork.

Enhanced Structure for Individual Development

‍

This year, the camp took a new approach by dividing the participants into four different teams. This allowed our coaches to focus more on individual development, tailoring their coaching to the specific needs of each player. With only two weeks to work with, dividing the players into four groups gave our coaches the ability to really zero-in on players and deliver specific and specialized feedback.

‍

In addition to the on-field activities, all players had the opportunity to experience the MESA player’s gym tests. The technology we use is crucial towards developing complete modern players. The data gathered from these tests provided valuable insights into each player’s physical capabilities, allowing for more customized training programs that address individual strengths and areas for improvement.

Positive Experiences and Memories All Around

‍

Players and parents alike were thrilled with this year’s summer camp. The comprehensive and balanced program left a positive and strong impression. Parents appreciated the variety of activities, which kept their children engaged and motivated throughout the two weeks.

‍

MESA’s summer camp continues to set the standard for youth soccer development. By combining high-level training with fun and engaging activities, the camp provides young players with the perfect environment to grow as athletes and individuals. Players were able to experience what it means to be part of MESA. Above all, they left with improved skills, new friendships, and a deeper love for the game.
