Real Madrid Football Day Camp

The Campus Experience is an opportunity that the Real Madrid Foundation is offering to both boys and girls aged between 7 and 13years of age, aimed at giving kids an alternative and positive form of fun and development and teaching them the right values, through a perfect combination of sports and learning.

As well as this, the Campus Experience has a diverse programme of recreational and educational activities, always aligned with the values of Real Madrid, aimed at educating the participants around the 5 ethical pillars of the club: team work, leadership, respect for others, autonomy and hard work.

The objective of the Real Madrid Campus Foundation is that the kids experience a positive alternative of fun and training, educating them in values, through a combination of sport and training. This is an intensive, educational process, carried out through the practice of football.

At Football Day Camp, ½ days and full days are available.

The educational model of the Real Madrid Foundation is based on the concept of Wider Education, meaning that education can apply to all kinds of situations. In order to develop this model, we have worked on the 3 basic areas of the teaching process, with our programmes being based around these 3 key areas of activity:

• ME as an individual
• US as a team
• MY TEAMMATES and my relationship with them

Through the Campus Experience of the Real Madrid Foundation, we have designed a week-long programme, teaching one of the 5 core values every day. All the sporting and educational activities are centred on this specific value:

• Mondays, leadership
• Tuesdays, effort
• Wednesdays, self-control
• Thursdays, teamwork
• Fridays, respect for others

Our educational programme offers complete sports training, combining physical exercise with the sports-based education that appeals to our students most. This complete sports training reflects the values of the Real Madrid group, such that they can absorb everything from this process.

Access to Teaching

Training

The programme, focussed on the complete training of the participant, is based around 4 key pillars:

• Health: to make them aware of the importance of health in the world of sports.
• Education in Values: to use effective education to develop them, not only as athletes, but also as people.

The sports programme is supervised by a technical team from the Real Madrid Foundation. The training sessions are comprised of:

Activities Experience

The aim of the Activities Experience is to convey the values of the Real Madrid Group. The Campus provides 3 types of activity:

• FEEL AND EXPERIENCE ACTIVITIES: TO EXPERIENCE. Games and exercises, different and fun, giving the students a sense of personal value within the group.
• FUN EXPERIENCE ACTIVITIES: TO MOTIVATE. A series of games and competitions aimed at stimulating the participants and creating a sense of fun.
• TEAM EXPERIENCE ACTIVITIES: TO EDUCATE AND TRAIN. These are the life lessons that the students will learn, sharing and listening with the rest of the group. With supporting materials, we will reflect on the value of each day, linking it to sport, to our time at the Campus and to our own personal lives.
