WHAT DID ALFREDO ALMEIDA SAY ABOUT FLAMENGO ACADEMY?

Alfredo Almeida, Flamengo’s youth academy director, explained how the ‘Fla Academy’ will work. In addition to giving an overview of the initiative, the executive also made a point of highlighting the audience he wants to reach.

When we thought about creating the Academy, we based it on a triangle that guides us, which is this: teach what you know, practice what you teach, and ask about what you don’t know. We have a DNA, a working method inside Ninho do Urubu, through which we can teach what we have done and practice what we teach,” he said, before concluding: “The target audience is everyone who is passionate about football. These passionate people will have the opportunity to spend a week inside Ninho do Urubu alongside our professionals, getting to know and discussing a variety of topics,” said Alfredo.

WHO CAN TAKE PART IN FLAMENGO ACADEMY?

In short, Flamengo’s target audience for this workshop is people already involved in the football world. Therefore, coaches, technical staff members, teachers and physical education students, sports managers, fitness coaches, sports psychologists, professionals involved in social projects, and people interested in athlete development are expected to take part in this project.
