“The opportunity to showcase my talent overseas is a dream come true, and I’m deeply grateful to Alan, Maurice, Juan and the Elite Football team for all their support and believing in me.”

— Fabio Macedo

Player 2 competing during the EFA Trial Showcase

Player 2 after earning an overseas football opportunity

“I’m incredibly grateful and overwhelmed to have been offered a scholarship for the rest of the season, since arriving here at Celta. Honestly, when I first arrived, I didn’t expect an opportunity like this, which makes it even more special. Since being here, I’ve developed so much both mentally and physically, which has all been due to the training schedule, coaches and quality of sessions.”

— Lucas Gil

What makes this different from a standard holiday camp?

EFA and RC Celta staff evaluating players on the field — On-field evaluation by Spanish coaches and EFA staff.

This isn’t a camp

It’s an international trial window — in your backyard.

Direct access to professional Spanish clubs hosted by the #1 football agency in Australia.

The coaches we bring are authentic and direct from the clubs (coaches who can’t speak English — the EFA team will translate).
Your son or daughter will be pushed outside their comfort zone in a healthy, positive environment.
They might be asked to play out of position — where real talent/skill/performers stand out.
Attitude, reactions, grit, communication, & performance are watched 24/7.

If you’re just after a fun holiday camp, this probably isn’t for you.
But if you want guaranteed development and exposure with honest feedback for your son or daughter, you’re in the right place.

Elite Evaluation

$249

Full pro report with one-on-one review. You’ll finally get honest answers on where your son or daughter stands, what Spanish clubs see in them, and what needs to happen next for their career.
Multi club assessment. They’ll be evaluated through the eyes of multiple pro clubs & agents, not just one coach, agent or director on the day.
Limited to 30 players per city. This takes time for our agents to do properly, so once those 30 are filled, that is it for that city.
First come, first served. If you want a full breakdown and a real roadmap, secure it early. Once the spots close, no more reports can be completed.
