QUESTIONS BEFORE JOINING
QUESTIONS FAMILIES ASK
Which ICA programmes are available?
The Academy describes three formats: a reference 10-month annual programme, intensive clinics and tailored plans. Dates and conditions must be confirmed before enrolling.
Does the programme include outfield players and goalkeepers?
Yes. ICA distinguishes goalkeeper sessions (reflexes, agility, defensive and attacking actions) and outfield player sessions (technique, tactics, playing phases and transitions).
Where does this Madrid programme take place?
GoToGo’s Madrid proposal centres on Escuela IDEO and StepHouse Cantoblanco. Rooms, sports facilities and teaching spaces are confirmed separately according to dates and requirements.
Which school programme is offered?
School-year equivalence, Spanish proficiency and educational placement are reviewed individually with the family. Admission to Escuela IDEO or another school is not automatic.
Is placement in a football club guaranteed?
No. The opportunity to train or compete with a local club depends on the player’s level, assessments and the agreements available for that season.
Are the pool, sports hall and classrooms included?
Not necessarily. Access, prices, schedules, supervision and availability are defined in the personalised proposal.
What happens after submitting the form?
GoToGo reviews the family’s information and gets in touch to agree a video call. Submission does not automatically confirm a place, visit or appointment.
