In a pleasant day, Vicente del Bosque has visited for the first time the Rafa Nadal Academy by Movistar. During his stay in Manacor, the former national coach has known first hand the facilities where the Vicente del Bosque Summer Campus will be held, which will take place at the Academy from August 1 to 15.
Accompanied by the Director of the Academy Toni Nadal and by the commercial and marketing manager Maribel Nadal, Del Bosque visited the soccer field, the tennis courts, the Rafa Nadal International School and all the spaces that the children attending the Summer Campus will be able to use. “I had a little reference of what the facilities were, but the truth is that it has surpassed what I had seen in the television reports. Today is a nice day to see that our country, through a great athlete, can have magnificent facilities to serve as a base so that every day we have better kids in every way, personally and also in sports”. said Del Bosque.
During the course of the day, Vicente del Bosque also visited the Rafa Nadal Museum, which houses both the trophies won by Rafa Nadal and objects donated by some of the greatest sportsmen in history. Del Bosque donated a Spanish National Team jersey to the Museum, which is now on display in the soccer area of the Museum. At the end of the visit, Rafa Nadal shared a pleasant chat with Vicente del Bosque, whom he thanked for his involvement in the organization of his Summer Campus at the Academy.
To close his visit, Del Bosque shared his thoughts on the importance of training young people at this time of the year: “I am always concerned that we do things right, that we are a reference for the children, that we don’t do anything foolish and that we are very serious about guaranteeing that this is going to work well. We also have the great concern that the kids learn and have fun, but also that they have the maximum security, that nothing happens and that everything is under control and that they remember their time at our Academy with the greatest possible pleasure. In the summer time it is logical that we give them an alternative, it does not mean that soccer is the only way to train the kids, but it is a way to get closer to what is best for them. As parents, we see it permanently and we are aware that taking a child to a facility to play sports is always positive. Instead of being at home all day with video games, they are with their peers, they socialize, those who are a little more detached are making friends and I think it is a stage in their lives that they will always remember..
The collaboration includes various initiatives during the Vicente del Bosque Summer Campus in June and July at the Vicente del Bosque Municipal Sports Center.
Fuencarral-El Pardo has renewed its commitment to the promotion of sports as a tool for integration among young people with intellectual disabilities with the signing, by the councilman, Javier Rámirez, the extension of the collaboration agreement with the Juanito Maravilla Foundation, which has signed its president, José Platas. During the signing was also present the former coach of the National Football Team, Vicente del Bosque.
Thanks to this agreement, a sports training program in values and healthy habits through soccer will be carried out again during the months of June and July in the Summer Campus 2023 of the Vicente del Bosque Football Academy, in the Vicente del Bosque Municipal Sports Center, which includes sports activities and specific 11-a-side soccer training. This program, which has professionals with extensive experience in the world of professional sports and training, will also include the granting of 49 sports scholarships for children referred by the district’s social services due to their situation of vulnerability.
With this initiative, which has been running for several years, Fuencarral-El Pardo provides young people with a space from which to promote individual development, friendship, integration and fellowship through the practice of soccer.
This summer we wanted to give a 360º turn to our activities, since the soccer technification activity has been in high demand in recent years.
The sports center of La Cabrera is the ideal place for this, within the Barrio del Pilar, since in its renovated facilities we have:
An 11-a-side soccer field
A 7-a-side soccer field
An indoor soccer field on artificial turf (Jaula and Maracana): an ideal field to play 5-on-5 matches, indoor soccer dimensions on an artificial turf field and soccer 7-a-side goals.
An indoor soccer field on artificial turf: an indoor field without outfields, of indoor soccer size and with goals similar to soccer 7, ideal for playing 6 against 6 on artificial turf, a very fun and innovative modality.
The facilities also have numerous shaded areas where you can rest and have a mid-morning snack.
In addition, starting at 12:30 p.m., in order to combat the heat of Madrid, different water games will be played in collaboration with a leisure activities company, where the main sporting activity will be underwater soccer.
The entrance will be in a parking area provided by the sports center to make it easier for parents to park their vehicle if necessary and for those coming by public transport the place could not be better located.

Mondelēz’s iconic cookie brand invites consumers to enjoy their favorite sports as a family and live unique experiences through three exceptional allies.
Fernando Morientes, Amaya Valdemoro and Carlos Moyá have become brand ambassadors.
This limited edition will include sports motifs on its packs and, for the first time, also on its cookies.
Encouraging an active and balanced lifestyle, as well as enjoying sports as a family to connect different generations and create memorable memories, is the goal of the new Príncipe Sports Academy. This initiative by Príncipe, the renowned cookie brand from Mondelēz International, has been joined by three fellow travel partners: the prestigious sports academies Vicente del Bosque Football Academy, Rafa Nadal Academy by Movistar and Movistar Estudiantes Academy.
Thanks to the alliance with these three leading institutions in sports values training, consumers will have the opportunity to enjoy sports in a very special way with their families and with the help of great professionals. In this way, Príncipe seeks to unite different generations through sports, fostering family bonds, in the same way that its cookies invite families to share moments of happiness together, generation after generation.
“After two years collaborating with La Roja, this year at Principe we want to go a step further with respect to one of our brand purposes: trying to make families happy by uniting generations through sports. For this reason, the Príncipe Sports Academy not only aims to promote sport and physical activity in consumers’ day-to-day lives, but, thanks to sports academies with a wealth of experience, we also want families to be able to enjoy memorable experiences and strengthen their bonds while enjoying unique sporting environments.” saidFilipe Salsinha, Bakery Marketing Director Mondelēz in Iberia.
Through this new initiative, which will be available in Spain until November 30, the brand is raffling different experiences with its three partners to experience sports as a family at the Rafa Nadal Academy by Movistar in Mallorca, at the Movistar Estudiantes academy in Madrid or at Vicente del Bosque ‘s soccer campus in Mallorca. On the other hand, for the first time in its history, the iconic drawings printed on its cookies will include silhouettes of soccer, tennis and basketball balls randomly inside the blue packs. In addition, to give visibility to the initiative, approximately 6 million customized packs have been produced with exclusive designs of its emblematic prince in which he appears linked to sports and academies. In this way, Príncipe Sports Academy will be present in more than 90% of the brand’s portfolio, specifically in the varieties Príncipe Original, Príncipe Maxichoc, Príncipe Estrellas and Príncipe Minis.
It is worth recalling that the WHO insists on the need for countries and communities to take steps to provide more opportunities for all people to be active, in order to increase physical activity.[1] This requires a collective effort and its implementation in different sectors and disciplines. Príncipe is no stranger to this reality and, with the aim of promoting, enabling and encouraging physical activity among consumers, takes a step further into the territory of sports by creating the Príncipe Sports Academy.
For his part, Pau Albertí, director of the Vicente del Bosque Football Academy, said: “The Vicente del Bosque soccer campus has established itself as a benchmark in education and physical activity that promotes sports and values such as friendship, integration and companionship. We hope that this collaboration with Príncipe Sports Academy will continue along this path and, above all, will serve to unite families around the practice of sports”.
To make itself known, the Príncipe Sports Academy will also have great ambassadors from the world of sports such as Carlos Moyá, Fernando Morientes and Amaya Valdemoro, who will encourage families to practice sports together and participate in this activation.
