Commitment to women
This I Valencia CF Women's Camp in Saudi Arabia is another example of Valencia CF's commitment to equality and the empowerment of women, which was already reflected in the agreement signed in 2015 by president Layhoon Chan with UN Women to promote gender equality.
Promoting women's soccer in the Middle East
This Valencia CF Camp in Saudi Arabia is a first step in a process with which Valencia CF aims to develop women's soccer in various countries in the Middle East that have already shown interest in counting on Valencia CF to promote women's soccer, as is already being done in many of the VCF Soccer Academies in Seattle, Houston, Canada and Greece, among others.
Valencia CF Soccer Academy Programs
The VCF Soccer Camps that Valencia CF carries out in various countries around the world are part of the VCF Soccer Academy Programs, which together with the VCF Soccer Academy that the club has in strategic markets in North America, Europe, Africa and Asia help to expand the Valencia CF brand and what its colors symbolize worldwide. This Internationalization Strategy has been a finalist in the World Football Summit Awards 2022.
The main objective of the VCF Soccer Academy Programs, in addition to expanding the image of Valencia CF and its philosophy around the world, is to take the training methods of Valencia CF to any part of the planet and spread the values that always accompany this Club, making the participants enjoy and learn from the hand of the best professionals of the Valencia CF Academy.
The Valencia CF Soccer Camps, Training Stages, the VCF Soccer Academy and the Sports Consultancy services are just some examples of this great project.
