"School of the AFE is a unique school in Spain, it is not a school to use, is made for the child to be educated through football." He described Pacón Stump, head of the School AFE the main feature that is instilled from its inception in 1986, when the Association of English Footballers instructed to "Juanito", then playing for Real Madrid and the English team, its implementation in order to perform social work with young people between 10 and 16 years Madrid and its surroundings.
Stump from the start, shown affable and willing to explain the operation of the school despite the intense cold that bothers on the Elipa Sports, a training ground for the more than 100 children as part of the club. Recognizes that discipline is what drives the students and are made aware from the outset with the tough entrance tests that measure the physical, technical and even mental abilities. "Psychologists value when entering a child if he has the capacity to learn and play, if not it does not fit very well may be."
addition to these tests, Gabriel Julian, former student and now a professor (as they call in the College coaches), note that children must be examined on a quarterly basis, as happens in school. Assessing a party discipline, a purely football and finally the psychological. These endnotes are used to access the next course or drop out of school if not exceeded in a positive way.
For this reason it is so important to learning, which is obtained with time and dedication. Students trained seven and half hours per week plus games every Saturday, which is much longer than the rest of the soccer teams. Here again comes into play the psychologist, helping children with higher school problems to plan your time, because if the notes are obtained insufficient, that party becomes the child can not play. On this subject Paco Stump says that if the child is not training will be on the computer or watching TV and if they want to do something they like before should be organized to do their jobs.
On the way to carry out training Julian explains that every teacher has identified targets, which are reflected in a template that is the same over the years. But you can make changes that can be implemented if necessary for the group at any given time. Another striking aspect is that teachers change every fifteen days, and it is intended that the kids know how to work with different methods and adapt to different situations.
El-former student accounts with its wide view over the years that the School should be quite good because they have not changed and the values \u200b\u200bare maintained. "When you meet other youth football coaches are very rewarding to be in a school such as AFE," said minutes before starting work.
Despite all the discipline in which standards as Stump insists that "children must wear a uniform" and "if a child misses a practice, not play the next game," students have fun, and it shows just before training, when they accompanied their parents to the locker room with animated voices and have to play with a tennis ball on the pitch before it reaches the teacher. Then comes the exercise, they have no problem in doing as they are used to it, later working with the ball and usually ends with a practice match, summarizes Daniel Picon, a student of 13 years of school. Picon
himself, totaling two goals so far this season, has so shy that he and his colleagues are annoyed that the coach puts defense during games, and that the positions do not matter and vary in shape constant, to achieve versatility in the field. Youth teams interested in these children, once their training is one of the most valued aspects in addition to their ability to work.
respect to the comparison with other major clubs of Madrid and Atletico Madrid Rayo Vallecano and Real, the young player recognizes that its rivals have better vision, more technical and even the corner set pieces. He complains that in recent games they do not go concentrates are as asleep and just win. These feelings are reflected Picon in the standings, where they have only scored a point in the last six games, which has overshadowed his great start to the season, when they won three the first four games. Meanwhile
Stump is critical of professional clubs, and engaged to compete and not to teach, "assume that the child is formed and if not win the coach fired. What happens with the move to larger ones. " Thus, the aim of the school is not to draw elite players, but to train future doctors, engineers, that's what matters, says the cause of this. Yet here they began their careers as football men Negredo, First International and for some months new director of the School, and a few other players who have reached the first division. Stump says
addition Paco that after the three big clubs in the Community School is the next team ERA in the level of play is debatable whether the classification, where the team of Daniel Picon child is just one place above the drop though however, in higher-level group within the category. The largest school, the cadet team, it does do what they said Stump and lie in second place in their group, just behind Real Madrid.
Another field to discipline is reaching the parents of the students, "We have no problem with parents because it moves a bit is out, it works," Stump sentence. Also reports some cases of parents who give orders to your son or insult the referee or the opponent, and how to act, it is quoting on Monday and tell that to continue with that attitude your child will be expelled from the school.
More cases of problems related to the parents reach the time of the notes, which if not reaching the expected anger and tantrums, as described by Stump, which he says come because their children are so well in school not want to see them off. The coach believes that if a student is expelled will objectively, and as if the school suspended the teacher mathematics can not be criticized for anything, this should happen the same.
Juan Carlos Carrasco, parent of a student who is reluctant at first to give his opinion about the school if this came to those responsible for it, thinks that "from the organizational point of view is great, wonderful. The discipline very well. In all these respects is a role model. " The complaints come on the pitch, "all play the same minutes but every parent likes one thing, some like to have more competitive relative to other teams and leagues that are playing. This value is not given to it "
After recognizing the downside of the school, in its sole discretion, Carrasco back to comment that the organization still is exemplary and that" Most parents we want our children to study and not to be about figures, and that takes good care here. "
After 25 years of history the next can be very different from the rest, is that we think of creation of a women's section, although the idea is currently undeveloped, "we study the decision of whether a school is exclusively female, or is mixed, although we are not very supportive of the mixed" says Stump. More sure about this option was Rubiales in the event to mark the 25 anniversary to ensure that there are girls at the school because the SFA wants to be a mirror of equality. Few places
You can find an organization where they practice sport and also take care of both the education of children in the future will not only know how to play football, but in any profession can demonstrate ability to work, respect and companionship. The idea of \u200b\u200bsocial work which began the project is still alive.
