Intercultural TRAINING for

INTERNATIONAL TEAMS

Your team of athletes or professionals is made up of people from different cultures. Communication, complicity, emotional proximity are fundamental for the success of the teams. We strengthen that.

CLUB PROFESSIONALS

Social workers, coaches, fitness coaches, psychologists & other professionals who deal with foreign players and their families. Our know-how will help immensely in the final results.

FOREIGN PLAYERS

Players when they arrive abroad have to adapt on & off the field. With their wives & children and all the challenge that the experience abroad offers.

We reassure them..

FOREIGN PLAYERS' WIVES

Naturally, wives play a fundamental role in adapting players, their well-being depends on how much they feel at home outside.

We build this

DIRECTORS, AGENTS

& BUSINESS PEOPLE

We teach them.

HUMAN RESOURCES OF FOOTBALL CLUBS

When going international, the Club goes to a much more complex dimension than the domestic sphere. Dealing with foreign cultures all the time is enriching & calls for new skills.

We develop them.

DEPOSITIONS

The experience was incredible !!!   Mainly because I expected it to be only for athletes. But it was much broader and opened my mind to multiculturalism and behavior, interpersonal relationships and more. Thank you!!!

Raul Pires Fachini, Pelé Campus Football Supervisor

A new and very interesting activity.

The dynamics are fun and easy to assimilate. Using simple language and her rich life experience, Andrea makes this day a real spectacle!

​

Norway Cup football coach Valter Lopes

Simply spectacular! Clubs hardly care about the intercultural preparation of athletes, especially because I think they don't even know that it exists.

When I went to Portugal I had no guidance of this kind. My family and I got by.

Congratulations on what you do! Go ahead! Football needs!

- Ricardo Naruseviciu, football coach Campus Pelé

A very productive experience! When the players go abroad this is the main difficulty: adaptation, customs, language, the family. Despite having lived 11 years abroad, I confess that in just one meeting I learned things that I had never thought of before. I recommend it to all athletes in general, and especially to ours at Savio Soccer.

- Savio Pimentel, CEO Savio Soccer and former player Real Madrid, Flamengo, Zaragoza, Bordeaux, Anorthosis. Sociedad among others

I am taking this new phase of my life very seriously. Intercultural training helped me to face the time I have at Internacional even more lightly. Going to such a different place is no longer a problem in my head. Much calmer game. I think that all players who are going abroad deserve to go through an activity like this.
