|

<th><p><strong>A</strong></p>
|
||||
<p>Football is an extremely popular world sport. Young men look up to
|
||||
famous footballers as role models. Several football stars began their
|
||||
sporting careers as children playing on the streets. However, many of
|
||||
them moved on to join football academies, or sports’ schools, to build
|
||||
their talent and become professional players.</p>
|
||||
<p><strong>B</strong></p>
|
||||
<p>A football academy is a school set up to develop young footballers.
|
||||
All major football clubs</p>
|
||||
<p>such as FC Barcelona, Manchester United and Real Madrid have their
|
||||
own academy.</p>
|
||||
<p>They scout, or look for, young talent and then teach them to play
|
||||
football to meet the club's standards at the academy.</p>
|
||||
<p><strong>C</strong></p>
|
||||
<p>Football academies provide football education to students who are 21
|
||||
years old and below. A student must be at least 9 years old to join an
|
||||
academy. However, some football clubs, such us Arsenal, have
|
||||
pre-training programmes for even younger players. All the boys at an
|
||||
academy continue their normal school education. It is important that
|
||||
they are able to get good jobs in case they fail to become professional
|
||||
footballers.</p>
|
||||
<p><strong>D</strong></p>
|
||||
<p>Players between the ages of 9 and 16 have to sign schoolboy forms.
|
||||
They sign a new contract every two years. When the player turns 16, the
|
||||
academy decides if they are going to offer the player a place on their
|
||||
Youth Training Scheme. Each year, the best players receive a
|
||||
scholarship. This gives them free football training and an academic
|
||||
education.</p>
|
||||
<p><strong>E</strong></p>
|
||||
<p>In a football academy, players attend training sessions in the
|
||||
afternoon on weekdays, and in the morning at weekends. On Sundays, they
|
||||
don’t train. They play matches against other academy teams. The football
|
||||
academies also encourage their players to take up other sports such as
|
||||
gymnastics or basketball.</p>
|
||||
<p><strong>F</strong></p>
|
||||
<p>FC Barcelona's football academy, La Masia, is one of the best
|
||||
football academies in the world. Located in Barcelona, Spain, La Masia
|
||||
has over 300 young players. Famous footballers and coaches such as
|
||||
Lionel Messi, Pep Guardiola and Ces Fabregas are graduates of La Masia.
|
||||
Many people think that Barcelona’s success in the football world is due
|
||||
to the excellent training programme provided at La Masia. Today, FC
|
||||
Barcelona has academies in other parts of the world including Egypt,
|
||||
Japan, America and Dubai.</p>

<th><p><strong>A</strong></p>
|
||||
<p>Football is an extremely popular world sport. Young men look up to
|
||||
famous footballers as role models. Several football stars began their
|
||||
sporting careers as children playing on the streets. However, many of
|
||||
them moved on to join football academies, or sports’ schools, to build
|
||||
their talent and become professional players.</p>
|
||||
<p><strong>B</strong></p>
|
||||
<p>A football academy is a school set up to develop young footballers.
|
||||
All major football clubs</p>
|
||||
<p>such as FC Barcelona, Manchester United and Real Madrid have their
|
||||
own academy.</p>
|
||||
<p>They scout, or look for, young talent and then teach them to play
|
||||
football to meet the club's standards at the academy.</p>
|
||||
<p><strong>C</strong></p>
|
||||
<p>Football academies provide football education to students who are 21
|
||||
years old and below. A student must be at least 9 years old to join an
|
||||
academy. However, some football clubs, such us Arsenal, have
|
||||
pre-training programmes for even younger players. All the boys at an
|
||||
academy continue their normal school education. It is important that
|
||||
they are able to get good jobs in case they fail to become professional
|
||||
footballers.</p>
|
||||
<p><strong>D</strong></p>
|
||||
<p>Players between the ages of 9 and 16 have to sign schoolboy forms.
|
||||
They sign a new contract every two years. When the player turns 16, the
|
||||
academy decides if they are going to offer the player a place on their
|
||||
Youth Training Scheme. Each year, the best players receive a
|
||||
scholarship. This gives them free football training and an academic
|
||||
education.</p>
|
||||
<p><strong>E</strong></p>
|
||||
<p>In a football academy, players attend training sessions in the
|
||||
afternoon on weekdays, and in the morning at weekends. On Sundays, they
|
||||
don’t train. They play matches against other academy teams. The football
|
||||
academies also encourage their players to take up other sports such as
|
||||
gymnastics or basketball.</p>
|
||||
<p><strong>F</strong></p>
|
||||
<p>FC Barcelona's football academy, La Masia, is one of the best
|
||||
football academies in the world. Located in Barcelona, Spain, La Masia
|
||||
has over 300 young players. Famous footballers and coaches such as
|
||||
Lionel Messi, Pep Guardiola and Ces Fabregas are graduates of La Masia.
|
||||
Many people think that Barcelona’s success in the football world is due
|
||||
to the excellent training programme provided at La Masia. Today, FC
|
||||
Barcelona has academies in other parts of the world including Egypt,
|
||||
Japan, America and Dubai.</p>

<th><p><strong>A</strong></p>
|
||||
<p>Football is an extremely popular world sport. Young men look up to
|
||||
famous footballers as role models. Several football stars began their
|
||||
sporting careers as children playing on the streets. However, many of
|
||||
them moved on to join football academies, or sports’ schools, to build
|
||||
their talent and become professional players.</p>
|
||||
<p><strong>B</strong></p>
|
||||
<p>A football academy is a school set up to develop young footballers.
|
||||
All major football clubs</p>
|
||||
<p>such as FC Barcelona, Manchester United and Real Madrid have their
|
||||
own academy.</p>
|
||||
<p>They scout, or look for, young talent and then teach them to play
|
||||
football to meet the club's standards at the academy.</p>
|
||||
<p><strong>C</strong></p>
|
||||
<p>Football academies provide football education to students who are 21
|
||||
years old and below. A student must be at least 9 years old to join an
|
||||
academy. However, some football clubs, such us Arsenal, have
|
||||
pre-training programmes for even younger players. All the boys at an
|
||||
academy continue their normal school education. It is important that
|
||||
they are able to get good jobs in case they fail to become professional
|
||||
footballers.</p>
|
||||
<p><strong>D</strong></p>
|
||||
<p>Players between the ages of 9 and 16 have to sign schoolboy forms.
|
||||
They sign a new contract every two years. When the player turns 16, the
|
||||
academy decides if they are going to offer the player a place on their
|
||||
Youth Training Scheme. Each year, the best players receive a
|
||||
scholarship. This gives them free football training and an academic
|
||||
education.</p>
|
||||
<p><strong>E</strong></p>
|
||||
<p>In a football academy, players attend training sessions in the
|
||||
afternoon on weekdays, and in the morning at weekends. On Sundays, they
|
||||
don’t train. They play matches against other academy teams. The football
|
||||
academies also encourage their players to take up other sports such as
|
||||
gymnastics or basketball.</p>
|
||||
<p><strong>F</strong></p>
|
||||
<p>FC Barcelona's football academy, La Masia, is one of the best
|
||||
football academies in the world. Located in Barcelona, Spain, La Masia
|
||||
has over 300 young players. Famous footballers and coaches such as
|
||||
Lionel Messi, Pep Guardiola and Ces Fabregas are graduates of La Masia.
|
||||
Many people think that Barcelona’s success in the football world is due
|
||||
to the excellent training programme provided at La Masia. Today, FC
|
||||
Barcelona has academies in other parts of the world including Egypt,
|
||||
Japan, America and Dubai.</p>
