As football’s international footprint grows, IDA Valencia is announcing the global expansion of its pioneering international soccer academy model. Based in Bétera, just outside the city of Valencia, Spain, the sports school is reshaping what it means to train, educate, and elevate young athletes on a worldwide stage.
The expansion marks a bold new chapter for IDA Valencia, bringing its proven development philosophy to a broader international audience. The Spain Soccer Academy, which has long stood as a destination for promising talent, is now scaling its integrated approach to meet student-athletes and families worldwide. This growth includes partnerships with like-minded institutions, new talent identification programs, and enhancement of global recruitment pipelines to deliver the IDA methodology to more aspiring footballers.
What sets IDA Valencia apart is its balanced execution of intensive, position-specific football training with individualized academic support. Under the guidance of UEFA-licensed coaches, players participate in a residential program that runs year-round. The training is rigorous and deeply structured, resembling the environment of elite European clubs. Student-athletes also benefit from U.S.-accredited academic tracks. These include high school diploma completion, SAT prep, and tailored college consultations. This dual focus empowers players to prepare for success both on the field and in the classroom.
The academy’s global strategy underscores its intent to provide more student-athletes access to its elite, one-of-a-kind sports training. Building partnerships with clubs and academies in North America, Asia, Africa, and the Middle East creates a network where young players can be scouted, mentored, and placed into top-level training environments. Through IDA’s extended platform, athletes gain exposure to international tournaments, Spanish league matches, and elite showcases.
IDA Valencia serves athletes aged 13–23 with programs tailored to different academic backgrounds and football experience levels. Its offerings include a full-time residential academy, short-term intensive development programs, and team training camps. Academic pathways are flexible, with options such as the U.S. high school curriculum, AP courses, and personalized support for university recruitment.
Aside from training and development, its coaches also emphasize community and inclusion. Students from diverse backgrounds form lifelong bonds through their shared pursuit of football excellence. The academy’s local ties, including collaborations with clubs and organizations across Valencia, ensure a cultural immersion beyond the pitch.
The academy’s base in Spain remains a cornerstone of its identity. With a deep connection to the region’s rich football culture, it provides access to professional-grade facilities including well-maintained pitches, a performance gym, player residences, and on-site educational support.
As a respected International Football Academy, IDA Valencia continues to redefine what a modern football education should offer. It serves not only as a training ground for technical and tactical mastery but also as a gateway to global opportunity. Through this development, the institution reinforces its position as a leader in youth football, welcoming a new generation of athletes ready to rise.
