SPORTS PROGRAMME
Excellence in Training
Our Academy staff, in partnership with club coaches, aims to instill in our young players the work habits, rigour, and effort that are essential in all situations. Our training programme helps develop high-level technical and motor skills, strengthens their athletic and mental potential, and encourages them to exploit their individual qualities for cooperative play.
INTEGRATE A FFF CLUB
Upon arrival in August, all players undergo tests and evaluation by our Academy staff. Based on their abilities, technical and physical qualities, and preferential position in the team, the Academy presents them to a FFF club in the region, even OGC Nice if they have the requested level.
They will take part in the French championships and play official matches with their team at district, regional or national level.

The choice of the club depends on the player performance level, skills and room for progression. It also depends on the coach’s interest when building his team… Lui seul décide de la composition de son équipe et de la sélection en match. Matches are usually played on Saturdays for U14 to 18 categories, and on Sundays for U19 and U20, in-home, and away matches.
As members of the Academy, and in order to play for the French championships, all players are given a license in the chosen club if they meet the conditions imposed by FIFA. Clubs usually propose 3 to 4 practices per week, lasting from 1.5 to 2 hours. The usual training hours are between 5 pm and 9 pm, Monday to Friday.

Les coachs de l’Académie assurent jusqu’à 4 entraînements par semaine sur petit ou grand terrain avec l’effectif complet ou en petits groupes de 8 joueurs au plus. Basés sur des méthodes modernes, ces entraînements rigoureux proposent un travail spécifique technique et tactique, personnel ou collectif. Adaptés à chacun des joueurs, les exercices ont pour but de renforcer leurs points forts et remédier aux mauvaises habitudes qu’ils ont trop souvent développés dans leurs pays d’origine.
L’Académie propose aussi des séances de travail physique, 2 à 3 par semaine, assurées par le préparateur physique en salle de gym. Travail de cardio, gainage, renforcement abdominal, souplesse musculaire, la séance est dédiée à l’amélioration de la condition physique et à la capacité aérobie et athlétique du joueur, par le biais également d‘évaluations et de tests.

Friendlies
The Academy organizes friendly matches with clubs in the region to put players in an opposition situation and help them consolidate their bearings.
Friendlies with Nice, Grasse, Mandelieu, Saint Raphaël, in U15, U16 and U17 categories, as well as U18, U19 and U20.
Individualized Follow-Up
The Academy manager and technical director conduct regular individual interviews to assess the work done and the efforts that remain to be produced.
Les observations sont généralement basées sur un travail d’analyse vidéo du dernier match qui aide à lancer des actions vouées à accélérer la progression.

Recording video footage of matches allows every player to analyze his behaviour, visualize his gestures, understand his positioning, and remedy his shortcomings.
Medical follow-up includes regular checks by the Academy manager on each academician’s moral and mental state. Tout en portant une attention extrême à la prévention des blessures, les joueurs bénéficient de programmes individualisés de réathlétisation et de soins en kinésithérapie adaptés.
Monitoring his own hygiene is our daily mission. Players are invited to listen to conferences in fields as varied as anatomy, nutrition, the responsibilities of a footballer, behaviour on the field and off the field…
An interim assessment is given to the player and parents at the end of each semester.
SCOUTING
We invite actors from the professional world, including former pro players, player agents, scouts, to attend trainings and matches.
At the end of the programme, some of our players may undergo tryouts in pro clubs, only if they demonstrate high and continous performance in matches all year long. In June 2019, one of our players was signed up for AS Monaco U16.
