"My internship with Villarreal CF played a significant role in helping me secure my new position with the USL as the Expansion Manager for their youth and pre-professional leagues. The projects I worked on at Villarreal closely align with the responsibilities I’ll be handling at the USL, providing me with relevant, hands-on experience. The combination of practical experience and industry networking gained during my internship was instrumental in landing this new opportunity. (...) The program exceeded my expectations, I never would’ve thought that I was going to experience everything I did and meet many amazing people from all over the world. As a result of my time in Spain, I have friends from countries all over the world and I couldn’t be more thankful for that."
Trey Bubin - Football internship Program
"I am very happy with the internship, I am confident it will help me a lot, I am planning to develop a career in coaching football in Spain. I coach alongside two other Spanish coaches, prepare coaching sessions, learn from the Spanish style of coaching and learn the language of coaching. This is the main challenge – the language I am learning by doing, I listen to the Spanish coaches and use their terms and phrases. My Spanish classes with Euroace help me a lot with my confidence to speak the language."
