The group consisted of Master in Football Management students interested in the daily activities at the Feyenoord Academy and the Feyenoord first team. Their visit started with a presentation of Feyenoord’s Head of Academy Zeb Jacobs, who explained the guest everything about our mission and vision. Later the guests also attended presentations about the Topsport Program, Medical & Performance at the Feyenoord first team,training preparation, and skill development.

Besides presentations, the group also had the opportunity to observe the academies talents and coaches during practice. Before observing the practice they had a presentation about training preparation that explained what the main goal for the practice was, and which exercises were used to achieve that goal to make it a greater learning experience for the group. The Academy visit ended with a tour of stadium de Kuip.

It was an overall great learning experience and a great networking opportunity for the students of the Real Madrid Graduate School.
