Better conditions and two trophies 

This commitment to the full integration of women's youth football in the VCF Academy means better training and playing conditions for all players, as well as the professionalisation of all areas of the VCF Academy structure linked to women's youth football. 

Last season, following this complete integration, two of the teams, VCF Femenino B and VCF Femenino D, were proclaimed champions of their respective leagues.

Commitment to VCF Femenino

This recognition from the ECA reinforces the VCF Academy's commitment to the integration and growth of women's football, with which Valencia CF have been linked to for more than a decade, since 2009, when VCF Femenino was created.

VCF Femenino are currently playing in the top tier of Spanish Women’s football league the Liga Profesional de Fútbol Femenino, and there are many players who came up the ranks at the VCF Academy. Likewise, the VCF Academy is also represented in the latest youth rank call-ups for the national team.
