Tottenham Hotspur International Development Experience – July Trip

July 2011 saw the first trip to the Tottenham Hotspur Football Academy from the recent partnership between Football Focus Asia and Tottenham Hotspur Football Development.

The boys aged 13-17 from both Malaysia and Hong Kong spent an intensive week at the spurs training lodge working under a panel of Spurs Development coaches. When they weren’t training, the boys met manager Harry Redknapp and also members of the Tottenham first team squad.

Two Malaysians who took part in July’s Academy experience, Faisal and Haiqal, were the top young players of the recently concluded Soccer Kids series on TV3.  The Soccer Kids crew followed Faisal and Haiqal to the UK to watch the would be stars in action and to grab some sneaky behind the scenes footage of Tottenham at work.

 

Outside the Spurs Lodge the boys also managed to visit White Hart Lane, the home of Tottenham Hotspur FC. They got full access to the stadium and even managed to see the first team changing room which was set up ready for action.
