Frequently asked questions.

Answers to common questions from players and parents.

What is the age group for this programme?

Players 18 and over. You must be 18 when the visa application is filed, roughly 60 days before departure.

Will there be official league matches?

The trials are inside clubs' own training and practice matches. Official league registration depends on the club and the outcome of your trial.

Is a contract guaranteed?

No. Trials are confirmed; outcomes are not. We publish outcomes honestly rather than promising them.

Which clubs will I trial at?

Typically 4th to 6th tier clubs in Spain, or lower-division professional and semi-professional clubs in Poland — matched to your profile and position.

What is the accommodation like?

Shared or single options in safe locations near the academy, with daily meals provided. Details are confirmed before you enrol.

How does the visa process work?

At 18 the route is a language-course or study visa. We provide the academy letters and a checklist; the family files. Poland's D-type visa is the more predictable of the two.

When is the deadline?

31 October 2026, for both the Spain and Poland cohorts running January to March 2027. The visa file has to be opened well before departure, so we cannot extend it.
