At French Football Academy, our main objective is to train and place our players in the best environment for their development as players and human beings. Due to our relationship with the Fédération Française de Football and our placement in the New York/New Jersey area, we have the opportunity to place our players with domestic and international opportunities.
Domestic Opportunities
French Football Academy has built great relationships over the course of the past couple of year with the two Major League Soccer franchises NYCFC and New York Red Bulls. Several players from our academy have been scouted and invited to participate in match organized by these two clubs. Former FFF player Brandon Cipriano is currently a player in the NYCFC Academy.
International Opportunities
Due to our partnership with the Fédération Française de Football, we have the opportunity to send players for trials with any professional French soccer academy. Players MUST be part of the French Football Academy club to participate in these trials and will be supervised by our coaching staff and by Jean-Claude Lafargue (former director of INF Clairefontaine) before being sent abroad
College / University Opportunities
We are also in close partnerships with several soccer organizations specialized in college player’s placement throughout the United States. Several of our coaches have gone through these same agencies and had very successful NCAA careers. Our objective is to send our talented French Football Academy players to these institutions to pursue their academic and athletic careers. All players must be part of our club in order to pursue these opportunities.
