EduKick Offcials Meet Coach of Spain, Luis Aragones
April 11, 2006 - Madrid, Spain -- EduKick V.P., Joey Bilotta and Edugoal President and EduKick Spain General Director, Anselmo Vicioso Aragones traveled to Madrid, Spain March 7 – 14 to conduct EduKick Spain business. While in Madrid, Bilotta and Vicioso Aragones met with several people associated with their Spanish based soccer development programs. Mr. Vicioso Aragones, the nephew of the head coach of the Spanish National Team Luis Aragones, together with his older brother Poli, directs all EduKick Spain Language & Soccer programs.
The EduKick Spain soccer & language programs include two (2) summer Spanish language immersion soccer development three-week camps, a two-week Elite camp at the famous Ciudad del Futbol soccer training complex, custom monthly “individual” training programs, and full year academic soccer boarding schools in Madrid (both University and High School levels).
During the 7-day visit, Bilotta and Aragones met with several groups of people associated with these unique Spanish language immersion soccer programs, including the Principal and the Head of Academics of the current affiliated Spanish High School (where the Spain year-long EduKick boarders attend), the Director of the EduKick affiliated language academy, International House, and the EduKick Spain "team" – which included the EduKick Spain Director, the technical coaching staff, the physical trainer and the school liaison counsellor/tutor. Bilotta and Vicioso Aragones also met with the Spain 2005/06 Year-long class as a group and also individually with each player to discuss their academic and soccer development.
Possibly the most significant of all meetings, however, were the meetings held at the Real Federacion Espanola de Futbol’s “Ciudad del Futbol” (Soccer City) in Las Rosas, Madrid. This immaculate soccer training facility was the former home training grounds of the famous Spanish club Real Madrid and is the current training grounds for all the Spanish National Teams, including the Men's squad about to participate in World Cup 2006 in Germany.
In cooperation with the Real Federacion Espanola del Futbol, EduKick will offer an “Elite” Soccer Development camp at the Ciudad del Futbol this summer from July 9 until July 23, 2006. The camp is open to boys and girls 14-22 years old that qualify. To qualify, players must submit a soccer résumé to EduKick headquarters with details of their soccer history and coaches references. This "Elite" camp is intended for those high-level players that aspire towards playing either University of professional soccer.
This "Soccer Development Center" works with players on every aspect of their training to ensure they develop the physical, technical, tactical and mental foundation required for better performance in soccer matches. EduKick V.P., Joey Bilotta, says, "Each player attending the EduKick Spain "Elite" Camp at the Ciudad del Futbol will also receive a DVD Media Promotional Packet, including 5-6 minutes of video and digital photos of the player, interviews and technical evaluation reports, that the participating players will be able to bring home and disseminate to interested collegiate, university or Olympic Development coaches."
At the Ciudad del Futbol, Bilotta and Vicioso Aragones met first with the facility Director, Javier Lozano Cid. In additional to his duties directing the Ciudad del Futbol, Mr. Lozano is a former professional player and current Spanish Futsal National Team Head Coach that travels the world lecturing and giving coaches clinics on behalf of the Spanish Futbol Federation. In their meeting EduKick V.P., Bilotta and Vicioso Aragones discussed with Mr. Lozano the details of the upcoming and inaugural EduKick Spain “Elite” camp and also discussed the possibility of EduKick hosting a North American based Spanish Soccer Federation Soccer School.
After completing the meeting with Lozano, Bilotta and Vicioso Aragones were escorted by Mr. Lozano to meet with the coach of Spain (and Anselmo’s Uncle), Mr. Luis Aragones. Anselmo Vicioso Aragones recently graduated from Boston College with a Masters Degree in Education with a focus on Sports Psychology and was meeting with his uncle to discuss a proposal he sent earlier to his uncle regarding working with the World Cup team on mental conditioning prior to and during the world cup in Germany in June. Luis met with his nephew for two hours while Bilotta toured the facility to discuss the proposal. At the end of the meeting it was decided that a second proposal would be submitted for consideration by the RFEF board of directors…if they agreed, then the Spanish National team would have their new “mental coach” to aid them in preparing for World Cup Germany 2006.
EduKick is presently accepting applications for the Elite camp. See detailed information about the EduKick Elite camp at the Ciudad del Futbol here… http://www.edukick.com/soccercamps.asp?cat=119

EduKicK Spain "Elite" Camp at "Ciudad del Futbol"
EduKick is very excited to offer our inaugural "Elite" camp in Madrid, Spain at the Ciudad del Futbol! The EduKick "Soccer Development Center", hosted at the Real Spanish Futbol Federation's Ciudad del Futbol, is a two-week program of complete soccer training, preparing young players from all over the world for the high demands of high school, college or pro soccer competition:
Improve technical precision
Develop a greater understanding of the game
Improve your game intelligence
Increase your speed and agility
Gain strength and power
Improve flexibility and balance
Develop mental toughness
Prevent injuries
EduKick Spain Directors - The Aragonés Brothers, Anselmo & Poli - Professional Coaches & Nephews of Luis Aragonés, Coach of Spanish National World Cup Team:
What sets us apart:A complete and integrated approach to soccer development: strength and conditioning, sport psychology, and sports medicine - enhanced by the state of the art facilities and resources from the Spanish Soccer Federation's, “Ciudad del Futbol” in Madrid, Spain (the training grounds of the World Cup 2006 qualified, Spanish National Team)!
Soccer in the 21st century is more competitive than ever. Players are faster, stronger, and better trained than they were in the past. To continue to meet these competitive demands requires an integrated approach with attention to four areas of player performance: technical, tactical, physical, and mental. These four areas serve as the foundation for athletic achievement. Neglecting any of these denies a soccer player the opportunity for maximum development. While most coaches are responsible for the technical and tactical components of their athletes' training they typically do not have the resources available to work with the strict physical and mental demands of competition.The goal of the “Madrid-Ciudad del Futbol” Soccer Development Center is to work with players on every aspect of their training to ensure they develop the physical, technical, tactical and mental foundation required for better performance in soccer matches. This is accomplished through coaching and training in advanced strength and conditioning techniques, uniquely integrated with mental, nutritional and sports medical principles. Programming is provided in either an individual or small group format. The coach to player ratio is kept purposely low to assure optimal instruction for our athletes.
Location:Madrid, Spain2006 Dates:July 9 - July 23 Tuition (Before Fundraising): $3,399 USD (includes travel health insurance)- Airfare not included
