Real training, Real exposure, Real Opportunity.
At International Development Academy, we wanted to give players the chance to experience everything that is so great about being an IDA player, without the full commitment of attending an academy full time. Our international soccer academy programs offer players the best in elite training and the opportunity to compete at a high level. Through our youth soccer development programs, we equip them with the tools for success, all within a flexible, short-term framework.
The solution? Create short-term programs where student-athletes can come and train, play and immerse themselves in the IDA culture. Whether you are looking to boost your game before you head off to college or are just looking to experience soccer in Europe, IDA has an option for everyone to take that next step in their journey.

"I’ve been part of IDA for almost 2 years now and my development has been huge. I took complete advantage of all of the coaching staff and all of the amenities we had with IDA. and when they saw my improvement, they awarded me with trials at the top levels. I’ve become a completely different player on the pitch and person off the pitch ever since I’ve came to Valencia. Thanks to the help of IDA i’m now playing on a professional teams U23’s here in Portugal. (Academica de Coimbra). I couldn’t be more thankful to IDA and would recommend if anyone is really serious about trying to go Pro and is willing to work hard for it and dedicate not just your body but your life into football IDA will give you the paths to succeed, you just have to trust them."
"My time in Spain was short, but it was enough to make me realize how valuable the opportunity to train and play at a completely different level is. The experience taught me a lot, and since then, returning to Spain to continue living my dream is a goal I want to achieve while continuing my studies. Playing there has been a dream, and the possibility of returning is always on my mind. The experience of studying and playing in Spain is unmatched, and the opportunities that football gives you in a country with the highest level and the greatest visibility are unmatched."
"My experience signing in my son for this past summer camp in IDA was excellent. Mr. Poulton and Pedro were very kind and patient and very nice explaining all the process and when I got there with my son and husband, we were given a tour and they sent us videos and feedback about my son and I think he is playing a lot better and he even wants to go back there and finish school with IDA as he wants to become a professional football player!!! Thank you IDA for everything!!!"
