Testimonials

Real Stories. Real Growth. Real Results.

Our players’ journeys say it all. From technical development to personal growth, these testimonials reflect the real impact of our academy, both on and off the pitch.

The 28 days in Portugal were amazing and intense. Training with UEFA coaches and getting to play with a local team felt like a dream. I’ve noticed a big improvement, and it made me realize how seriously I want to take football.

What impressed us most was the organization of everyone working at VERUM. The training, nutrition, cultural experience, all of it. As a parent, I felt secure knowing he was in good hands every day. Thank you guys for everything. My son for sure will come back.

Janelle S.

Diego's Mom - Age 15

90 days living in Portugal, training every day, and being immersed in football culture helped me level up way beyond my expectations. The coaches pushed me in the right way. Also, their recommendations are helping me to get better.

Aiden J.

California, USA - Age 16

At first, we were hesitant, six months abroad seemed like a lot. But Leo needed something more than his local team could provide. VERUM gave him that and more. From the structure of the daily schedule to the quality of the coaching and mentorship, every part of the program was handled with care. When we visited in person, we were amazed at how organized and professional everything was. It’s more than a soccer program, it’s a personal development journey. He came back transformed and we really appreciated.

We had tried other academies, gone to camps and clinics but this was different. The communication, organization and most importantly my son experienced and saw first hand what it takes to reach his dream. In my son’s own words, he said that the training quality WOW! was amazing!. The intensity of each session, the immersion; It was a great experience. Count with us, we’re planning for the 180-day next.

Greatness isn't found, it’s built, one training session at a time.

At VERUM, we don’t just develop players. We shape the mindset, discipline, and identity of future professionals, on and off the pitch.
