Are parents required to attend Team Immersion trips with players?

The Costa del Sol is one of the top European vacation destinations with world-class cities like Málaga, Marbella, Estepona, Ronda, Cádiz, and Sevilla all within a reasonable distance. However, not all trips require that family members attend with players.
What should I bring?
Players should bring:
A full packing list will be provided before departure
What happens after the program?
You’ll leave with video footage, a performance report, and pro connections.
Do I need to be scouted to participate in the Gap Year program?
Yes. You will need to submit a player CV as well as highlight videos to Via staff members who will determine if you are a suitable fit for our Gap Year.
Am I guaranteed a contract with a club as a result of participating in the Gap Year program?
No. Not all players will sign with a pro club during or after the Gap Year program. Making it to the next level is hard. Players need to be willing work at a high level for a sustained period of time in order to possibly achieve their goals. Then, in addition to that, players need skill, physical traits, and a little bit of luck. Via has all the tools necessary in order to help each player achieve their highest potential, but it is up to the player to ultimately arrive there.
Will I need a Spanish visa to play in the Gap Year program?
Yes. Players will need a Spanish visa if they intend to stay in Spain over 90 days. Via will help facilitate a student visa through our Spanish class offerings as well as through our coaching training courses.

Can Via help me sign with a club?

How long are Aspiring Pro programs?
Aspiring Pro programs can be as short as 2 weeks or as long as 3 months.
Do I need a Spanish visa to participate in an Aspiring Pro program?
