Olimpia Tour runs study tours for football coaches, with coaching clinics at professional academies in Spain, Europe and South America. You see first-hand how top academies plan their week, run their sessions and develop young players, then you take those ideas home to your own club.
Each tour mixes classroom workshops, on-field sessions and training observations with time to talk to academy coaches. We also include a professional match and some culture, so the trip is as enjoyable as it is useful. Flights, hotels, transfers and the full programme are managed by our team.
Coaching clinics in Spain
Spain is famous for its player development and its clear coaching methods. A clinic in Spain gives your coaches a close look at how professional academies work, with sessions built around:
- Methodology workshops on game models, session planning and player development
- Watching academy training sessions across different age groups
- Q&A with academy coaches
- A professional match

Coaching clinics in Europe
Clinics can also be arranged in other European football countries on request, such as Italy, Germany, the Netherlands or Portugal. Each country has its own football culture and coaching ideas, and we build the programme around what your coaches want to learn. See our tours to Spain and football tours.
Coaching clinics in South America
Buenos Aires and Brazil are where some of the world's best players are developed. Clinics in South America show your coaches how academies there build skill, creativity and competitive character from a young age, often with limited resources and huge passion. Discover our sports tours to Argentina.
