Bend it like Beckham – Real Madrid Soccer School in Dominican Republic
This has to be the ideal holiday for families with soccer-mad kids. Casa De Campo Resort and Villas in the Dominican Republic has launched a year-round soccer camp.
And it is world class, as they have teamed up with one of the most prestigious football clubs in the world, the great Real Madrid – through its Real Madrid Foundation.
If your youngsters have ambitions to be the next Sergio Ramos, Luka Modric or Karim Benzema, they can master their skills on a FIFA-size pitch with high quality turf, within the luxurious surroundings of the five-star resort. The camps are designed for aspiring footballers from seven to 17 and sessions are overseen by coaches from the Real Madrid Foundation and follow the team’s style of play. And they get a Real Madrid kit too!
Adults are not forgotten, with private football clinics also bookable for a minimum of three people. Real Madrid was founded in 1902 and holds the record for the most European Cup/UEFA Champions League titles and has won more international titles than any other team in the world.
Stunning: Minitas Beach Club at the gorgeous Casa de Campo resort
Off the pitch, gorgeous Casa de Campo offers plenty to keep even the most active of families amused, from paddle boarding to kayaking, tennis, golf and even polo lessons. Those who prefer a more relaxing break can lounge on the white sands of the resort’s private beach, take a boat trip to a deserted island or relax in the spa.
Seven nights all-inclusive with Travelplanners (www.travelplanners.co.uk) for two adults and one child costs from £1,399 per person. The price is valid for departures in May, June or September 2021 and includes return economy flights with British Airways, transfers, and accommodation in a Superior Casitas room. Five Real Madrid training sessions are also included for the child along with a Real Madrid Football Kit (shorts, shirt and socks), backpack and water bottle.
