Segovia hosts the first edition of the Real Madrid Foundation football campus
It will take place from August 3 to 7 at the sports facilities of Nueva Segovia and is aimed at 100 children aged 7 to 14.
Segovia will host the first edition of the football campus of the Real Madrid Foundation, a new sports and educational initiative that will be held from August 3 to 7 this year at the municipal sports facilities of Nueva Segovia, including the football fields and annexed rooms of the Pedro Delgado Pavilion, adding to the city's summer offerings.
The Councilor for Sports, Jesús Garrido, presented this initiative alongside David Gil Chapado, the Campus Manager, and Foundation ambassador Ricardo Gallego. This initiative reflects the City Council's commitment to expanding summer sports offerings and facilitating family balance during the first week of August, following the conclusion of the twelve municipal camps and other sports disciplines held in July. The campus will provide 100 spots for boys and girls aged 7 to 14 and will run from 8:30 am to 2:30 pm, featuring six daily hours of sports, educational, and recreational activities led by Real Madrid Foundation coaches. The registration fee will be reduced, thanks to contributions from the Segovia City Council.
A recreational and fun proposal
Over five days, participants will combine age-appropriate football training with educational and recreational activities based on the methodology of the Real Madrid Foundation, which promotes values such as respect, effort, teamwork, camaraderie, and healthy lifestyle habits. The campus will feature a technical coordinator and eight local sports instructors, whose recruitment will be managed by the Real Madrid Foundation, thereby boosting local employment.
Garrido stated that the launch of this new sports initiative marks a milestone in the institutional relationship between the Segovia City Council and the Real Madrid Foundation, a collaboration that has already surpassed ten years of jointly promoting sports and social initiatives in the city. The Councilor for Sports also expressed confidence that this edition will be well-received and serve as the first of many experiences in the future.
