Children, both boys and girls, from 5 – 15 years will be able to apply to join the Juventus Academy programme by 5 September 2011, when the training will begin. All children, not only those from the participating schools, are also welcome to apply. Football training will be organised twice a week (1,5 hour) for younger children (5 – 11 years) and three times a week for older ones (12 – 15 years).
