The Sevilla FC Academy held its Christmas Clinics on January 2nd, 3rd, and 4th, running simultaneously in both men’s and women’s formats, with excellent participation and positive feedback from players and families
The Women’s Clinic welcomed around 50 players, while the Men’s Clinic brought together about 30 players, making it a formative experience for nearly 80 children in total.

The sessions were led by coaches from the Antonio Puerta Academy, professionals experienced in training academy players who currently compete at the elite level, ensuring high-quality teaching in line with Sevilla FC’s methodological standards.
On the first day, an introductory informational talk was held for players and family members, explaining how the clinics work and addressing any questions. The presentation was delivered by María Cheza, goalkeeper of the women’s first team, and Eduardo García, coach of the Antonio Puerta Academy. Following this, participants received the official clinic kit.
During the second day, several players from the women’s first team visited the clinic to greet participants, share experiences, offer technical advice, and actively take part in a portion of the training, creating a particularly enriching moment for the young players.
The clinics concluded on the third day with the presence of María Cheza and Amparo Gutiérrez, Director of Women’s Football at Sevilla FC. The final day included a raffle of shirts and balls signed by the women’s first-team players, as well as the distribution of gifts for all participants, perfectly capping off an unforgettable formative and emotional experience.
