Observe our coaches in their element!
Our coaches work closely with our players to help them develop their skills and reach their full potential.
They create a positive and supportive environment for players to learn and grow, and are dedicated to helping each player become the best athlete they can be.
The Train Effective way in a nutshell:
We will help you achieve your goals by teaching you the skills you need to succeed as a
player while making friends and working with a team of experts you can trust.
What's the difference to our other Camps?
Our regular In-Residence Camps come with hotel accommodation, 3 meals a day and many other benefits that are ONLY accessible in our football camps package!
But those expenses obviously drive up the costs for the camps immensely.
That's why wanted to create a NON-Residence camp that includes the major benefits of our football camps while cutting out some major cost factors!
The Camp Package
The Train Effective Football Camps provide players with a once-in-a-lifetime experience
and an abundance of features and services that are included in the camp package.

Masterclass sessions

Get the opportunity to present yourself in front of scouts and coaches who have connections to professional clubs all over Europe and stand the chance to gain a recommendation from them.

Ole Bakken, 15 🇳🇴
"I attended the Train effective camp with the aim of improving my mentality and motivation for further investment in football. I am curious about my capabilities as a player and whether they rhyme with my goals and dreams. The stay was my first trip alone so a good adult education to become the best version of myself came as a bonus. I highly recommend Train Effective. I will definitely be back!"
London July/August Camp 2023
Skyler Maldano, 18 🇺🇸
"Going into the camp, I wasn’t sure what to expect but I was soon to realize how amazing this camp really was. You gain more than just knowledge and development in your football abilities, but on top of that, you gain amazing friendships with coaches and people you look forward to seeing everyday at the camp and crying from having to leave them at the end. This is an opportunity of a lifetime for anybody considering to go!"

Our regular In-Residence Camps come with hotel accommodation, 3 meals a day and many other benefits that are ONLY accessible in our football camps package! But those expenses obviously drive up the costs for the camps immensely.
That's why wanted to create a NON-Residence camp that includes the major benefits of our football camps while cutting out some major cost factors!
Please have a look at our Camp Schedule. Additionally we'll be in close in contact with you in the days leading up to the camp so you're always 100% informed where and when to arrive at the camp!
The Media Afternoon teaches players about the demands of modern day football. Nowadays, playing football is not the only thing anymore a player needs to be good at. They also need to be able to articulate themselves when speaking to coaches, reporters and club officials. Therefore we want to prepare our camp players to not only excel on, but also off the pitch. Additionally, it's also the time for the players' photoshoots in their new Train Effective kits.
For our training days on the pitch & matchdays. please bring your football boots, shinpads and anything else you might need for Training! Please make sure you're wearing the RIGHT kind of boots otherwise you might not be allowed to enter the pitch by the groundsman!
For our gym sessions please bring indoor trainers, a towel as well as well as swim shorts for our recovery pool sessions!
Train Effective relinquishes all liability for participants’ belongings throughout the duration of the camp - each individual will be responsible for their own personal possessions. We therefore recommend that all valuables and sentimental items be left at home. Where possible, we also highly encourage that participants preemptively deposit money into their bank accounts, rather than carrying excess cash. Some players may wish to travel with items such as electronic games, cameras, tablets, etc. however, in the case of loss, theft or broken items Train Effective declines all responsibilities. Players can minimise these risks by ensuring that all possessions are kept within the security of their rooms at all times.
All staff members stay on campus throughout the duration of the session programmes. If a problem arises, a staff member will always be easily accessible to
assist. Can I leave the camp area? At no point are those under the age of 18 allowed to leave the camp premises while unattended. For those over the age of 18 it is possible, but still not recommended. Those who wish to depart the campus must seek proper authorisation and sign-out before departure; signing in again upon their return.
At the Train Effective Showcase Camp in London, you will have the chance to be seen and evaluated by our coaches who have connections to clubs all over Europe. Additionally to their individual feedback, you will also receive a full assessment report which will outline your specific strengths and weaknesses. Combined with the Train Effective app, this scouting report can serve you as a blueprint for moving forward in your training after the camp.
However: if you're not a UK citizen there are certain regulations that have to be met in order to be able to get signed directly for a club in the Premier League and other professional leagues in England. You first need to successfully apply for a GBE (Governing Body Endorsement) with the FA before the Home Office will consider issuing a work permit. Only after having received this work visa, you will be allowed to play in England. The best way of achieving this is by playing at a very high level in your own country.
That being said, Train Effective's network is wide-ranging and connects to different countries in & outside of Europe. If Train Effective or its partners deem a player to have the capabilities to play at the highest level, we will make every effort to recommend the player to other clubs in countries where he is legally allowed to play.
At the end of the day, our #1 intention is to help every player regardless of their circumstances.
Please inform us about any dietary requirements in the according section in the Player Profile or by proactively informing Train Effective at least 6 weeks before the start of the camp.
If you fail to do so, Train Effective will not be able to cater to any dietary requirements and you will only receive the standard meals like any other player.
All deposits and final payments must be made no less than 7 days before the start of a Train Effective Football Camp. Applicants who do not pay in full before this date will lose their place and any initial deposits made. Under normal conditions, all deposit payments made towards a Camp are non-refundable.
In the unfortunate event of an injury or illness shortly before the start of the camp, it is required to provide a medical certificate stating that you are prohibited to do any sports because of your condition.
In this case participants will be able to reschedule to any other future Camp, within a 24-month period after the start of the original camp you’ve signed up for initially.
Train Effective will always do its best to help you recover. Train Effective will still, however, expect you to complete your stay in its entirety. Alternatively, Train Effective will arrange performance-improving activities in these cases. Once a camp commences, the whole stay is vested in its entirety (e.g. you may not leave after three days into your 14-day stay and do the 11-days at a later period).
In very exceptional cases (e.g. death of a family member, injury requiring immediate surgery) participants will be give, at the discretion of Train Effective, camp credit to attend a future Camp at another time.
