“Juventus Week” – an apt title to the five days of intense training and activities for those children present at the J|Academy in Athens between 13 and 17 February.
Led by J|Academy Area Manager, Lorenzo Grossi, who expressed his satisfaction at the outcome of the event, this initiative provided the latest confirmation of how Juventus’ very first International Academy (founded in 2009) continues to go from strength to strength.
Today, over 250 children attend the training facility in the Greek capital, where every week they develop their skills and play matches whilst wearing official Bianconeri kits.
The J|Academy in Athens runs two different programmes: one dedicated to students at the College Costeas Geitonas School and another for youngsters subscribed externally to the college. Then in the summer, it hosts the Juventus International Camp – the perfect Bianconeri holiday for everyone in attendance.
