Juventus Academy Sharjah

WELCOME TO #JUAE

In the last 10 years, Juventus Academy Dubai & Sharjah has been awarded multiple times as Best Sports Academy and Best Sports Youth Organization in the Middle East at the SPIA Awards, as well as Best Football Academy at the UAE Sports Awards.

Since 2015, the Academy has helped young footballers take their first steps into the game and develop through the Juventus Method, one of the world's leading football development programs, adopted in over 100 projects worldwide. Last season alone, we trained more than 1,500 players across nine locations.

Our philosophy focuses on developing both the individual and the team, making us a reference point for players aged 4 to 17 who want to improve their football skills in a positive and professional environment.

While every player receives the same passion, dedication and methodology, our Elite and Selected teams have consistently ranked among the top three in the UAE's major competitions, winning titles in the DOFA League, YFL, GCC Cup and the Juventus Academy World Cup in Italy, confirming the quality of our work both on and off the pitch.

Composed exclusively of highly qualified professionals, our coaching staff is trained and certified by Juventus. Every season, the Juventus Area Manager spends up to 30 days in Dubai and Sharjah to oversee coaching activities and ensure the highest technical standards.

Juventus Way

Our approach

What do we mean by the “Juventus Way”? Following on from our philosophy, we aim to develop footballers through a vision which combines technical aspects with mental, emotional and interpersonal ones. Our methodology can be summarised in five points:

STYLE OF PLAY

Dictate proceedings, keep possession of the ball and stay calm. Focus on individual initiative and collective hard work.

TECHNICAL ABILITY

Honed through dynamic drills that aim to perfect every technical skill. The development of each individual player is placed at the heart of every exercise.

TACTICAL ABILITY

Run through several detailed individual and team match situations, to be alternated throughout the week.

MENTAL FACTOR

Train the individual to make effective decisions in match situations. Develop their speed of thought to adapt with changeable tactical and technical scenarios.

EMOTIONAL AND SOCIAL FACTOR

Promote an identity fostering the values of sacrifice, bravery and teamwork, to be applied both on and off the pitch.
