The year 2025 is coming to an end. In just two weeks, we will say goodbye and welcome 2026 with great enthusiasm and new experiences. But at this time of the year, as is customary, we want to look back and see what has brought us here. This is the Kaptiva Sports 2025 Recap!
First of all, we want to thank the clubs, families, and players for placing their trust in us for another year. Thanks also to our staff, who have made some great additions that are essential to continuing this adventure. Thank you all for continuing to trust Kaptiva Sports!
Kaptiva Sports Global Stage is born in 2025
One of the major steps taken this year has been the creation of this branch of Kaptiva Sports. Global Stage was created with the intention of establishing its own identity, adding experiences and events where our DNA is the real star.
To this end, ID Showcases will be held across the pond, starting in the United States. As was the case in Houston, these are three-day events designed to introduce new players to the Kaptiva Sports methodology and provide direct entry into the Kaptiva Sports Academy and other Experiences. Our coaches will evaluate the players and decide whether they are a good fit for any of our programs.
Likewise, you have already seen in other publications the success achieved by teams made up of players from Kaptiva Experiences. You can check out their achievements in tournaments such as the Mad Cup or the recent Surf Cup, where they won two trophies. We will soon have teams in the FIT Tournament and the Costa Girona Cup in 2026.
More victories for Kaptiva Sports Academy and collaboration with Girona
The guys at Kaptiva Sports Academy are not far behind. We remind you that in the last MIC, for the first time in KSA history, all teams made it through the group stage! It was a real feat and we want to congratulate them for it. And, going even further, in the recent Cruyff Tournament we reached two finals in the silver phase, winning the Silver Trophy in one of them.
The quality of these young people speaks for itself, but it is also thanks to the work of coaches, tutors, and psychologists who strive every day to convey the values of Kaptiva Sports and to foster an atmosphere of coexistence and respect in the residence. This was evident in the 2025 edition of the Summer Camps.
In addition, the collaboration with Girona is a big step for the U18 players, as after their time at KSA they have more opportunities to continue their football career. Thanks to this agreement, and after a visit by the players to the club’s facilities, both parties can decide whether to join forces to open new professional doors.
All this, without forgetting the classic training clinics. In the 24/25 season, they trained with Betis in Seville and with Benfica in Lisbon. For the 25/26 season, the boys have already made their debut with Bayern in Munich, and will soon do so with the Real Madrid Foundation in the capital.
We remind you that the registration for KSA 26/27 is now open!
More Real Madrid Foundation Soccer Camps, Winter Camps, World Challenge, and Training Clinics
Another thing that continues to grow and that we are proud to be a part of, it is the Real Madrid Foundation Soccer Camps and Winter Camps. The latter are taking place right now, and we will tell you all about them when we return from vacation. The Soccer Camps, which take place in the summer, continue to add cities and players in the United States and Canada.
All of this translates into families’ interest in attending training clinics, Kaptiva Sports’ experiences that take place over several days in Europe. This year, the kids have trained at the facilities of clubs such as Arsenal, Paris Saint-Germain, Benfica, and, of course, the Real Madrid Foundation.
And we are already preparing a new edition of the Real Madrid Foundation World Challenge for 2026. As you know, this is an event organized by Kaptiva Sports, bringing together Real Madrid Foundation teams from all over the world. In the last edition, we also had the great Roberto Carlos in attendance!
As you can see, it’s difficult to summarize everything that has happened this year at Kaptiva Sports in just a few lines. The main photo reflects the entire team that makes each experience unique and unforgettable for players and families. It was taken at KapCon, the gathering of all the people who make up Kaptiva Sports to get to know each other and improve through team building activities and work meetings.
This has been the Kaptiva Sports 2025 Recap. Now it’s time to rest, enjoy the holidays, and get ready for everything that’s coming in 2026. Merry Christmas!
