FOREWORD BY VICENTE DEL BOSQUE

I think this book can be considered a prize for the years of work done by professionals working in the Football Schools of the RFEF (Spanish Football Federation). All of them are very good
coaches, but what is more important in my point of view, is that they are great educators.

I have the opportunity to see the work that is done with the children in the schools of the RFEF live. I am proud to observe the treatment of the students.

As well as teaching them all the technical skills they need and how to position themselves on the pitch, they are instilled in the values of fellowship, teamwork, discipline, and respect for their coach, teammates and opponents.
