The Bolton Wanderers Football Club International Soccer School had its first visit of the new year when our Manager Dave Bailey visited Marbella with the Inter Marbella CF Academy.
Dave spent 3 days seeing facilities, touring the area and meeting schools plus finalizing the first BWFCISS International Programme based in Marbella which is due to take place next month. The camp is taking place on the 21st to the 25th February (week 1) and then the 28th February to the 4th March (week 2). We are also looking to run a second camp from the 18th to the 22nd April. As this partnership grows BWFCISS are looking host further programmes over the summer and help to develop the Inter Marbella Club further helping its players to improve their skills.
Dave also did several media interviews one been on Central FM radio (no1 on the coast) where he did an interview live on air, the DJ asked numerous questions of what the link will look to achieve and how BWFC hopes the rest of the season will go. The schools visits were a massive success with the assemblies at Swans International School for secondary and infant attend by over 400 kids. Dave thought the kids were very well behaved and a real credit to all the staff at Swans and the ISS really hope to see them on the camps.
The Inter Marbella Academy is a knew Academy and is run by long time supporters of BWFCISS Nathan and his partner Craig. The two of them know the area well, both speaking English and Spanish which will be a big help in them bringing together both the English and Spanish communities.
