Hi Ben,
I just wanted to pass on my sincere thanks & gratitude for directing us in the right direction of George’s academy in Spain for Michael.
He had a month at the academy and aside from the initial couple of days of settling in, he loved it and he will be returning for a 2 year stint with the academy later in the year.
My husband and I were very impressed by what the academy is doing, providing a platform for the boys to train & reach their potential in a forum for recognition. Michael understands that it will be all up to him to take the opportunity to work hard and see what develops from there. The ethos of growing men that George and his team have set up is what most impressed me most, however. I am very grateful that it is a program that ensures ownership by the players to live, train and strive to be better, no one is “doing it for them”, they have access to great coaching etc but the program allows for boys to decide how much they want to develop. This is key for these boys to succeed post football.
