Valencia CF consolidate Summer Camp in Lithuania

A hundred players enjoyed the third edition of this camp with VCF Academy coaches and in collaboration with Zalgiris Kaunas.

For the third summer in a row, Valencia CF has held the VCF Soccer Camp Kaunas in Lithuania in collaboration with the Zalgiris Kaunas Academy, the most important professional club in Lithuania which the VCF Academy has an International Alliance with.

Nearly a hundred players between 9 and 15 years old enjoyed this Valencia CF Campus in which 4 coaches from the VCF Academy travelled to Lithuania to share full training sessions to show the working methodology of the VCF Academy, the sixth best in Europe in the training of players for the elite according to the latest report of the CIES Football Observatory.

An incredible experience

"It has been an incredible experience for our young talents to receive these training sessions by VCF Academy coaches" indicates Kestutis Deltuva,

Technical Director of the Zalgiris Academy.


"We are very pleased to work together and contribute to the training and development of our young players with the help of the household VCF Academy. We are grateful for the great cooperation and looking for more opportunities to organise even more interesting actions of this kind together in the future" he concludes.  

A close relationship
The relationship between Zalgiris Kaunas and the VCF Academy has been very close in recent seasons since the Lithuanian team started developing its academy.

The Zalgiris Kaunas Academy participated in and won the I VCF Academy World Cup at the Ciutat Esportiva de Paterna and furthermore, this summer two of their players participated in the VCF Elite Camp which also took place at the Ciutat Esportiva de Paterna.


In these years of collaboration between Zalgiris Kaunas and Valencia CF, the progression of football has been remarkable. This past season Zalgiris reached the runner-up position in the Lithuanian first division for the first time in their history and this summer they participated in the Conference League qualifiers, a clear sign of the progress of their football in recent years. 

VCF Academy Programs

The Valencia CF Academy programs help to expand the Valencia CF brand and what its colours symbolise around the world. The main objective of the VCF Academy Programs, in addition to expanding the image of Valencia CF and its philosophy around the world, is to take Valencia CF's training methodology to any part of the planet and to 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.

Valencia CF Soccer Camps, Clinics, Soccer Academies and Sports Consultancy services are just some examples of this great project.
