THE TFA-PRO EXPERIENCE:
Each year since 2010, up to (18) players from our current BU12 player pool are selected to travel abroad to participate in the famous Mediterranean International Cup (MIC) headquartered in Spain just north of Barcelona along the Costa Brava. This is a trip of a lifetime for an 11 year old to not only travel to a foreign country to experience new cultures and lifestyles but also to participate in the most prestigious Youth Soccer European Tournament against some of the most storied European Professional Youth Soccer Academies of the world (ie: FC Barcelona, Manchester United, Real Madrid, etc.) The trip is 100% funded by our non-profit for the players & coaches that have the good fortune of being selected.
