The Campus

Join us in Portugal with our Football Course running between 11th and 15th August 2025 for an unforgettable family holiday — with football at its heart.

Our Football Escapes experience in the stunning Quinta do Lago region is more than just a football course — it’s a full holiday package designed with the whole family in mind.

Former England defender Joleon Lescott will be joining us on the pitch, leading the football sessions alongside our UEFA-licensed coaches. While the children train each morning, parents can relax by the pool, unwind at the spa, or enjoy the world-class surroundings. Then, in the afternoons, it’s all about time together — exploring the local area, heading to the beach, or simply enjoying each other’s company.

You can choose from two exceptional resorts:

Conrad Algarve, a stylish and modern resort known for its award-winning dining and luxurious spa, or

Wyndham Grand Algarve, a family favourite with spacious suites, kids’ activities, and easy access to nature trails.

Both resorts offer a short shuttle ride to The Campus, our training base for the week.

There’s something for everyone. From the famous Parents’ Game to Q&A sessions, medal celebrations, and plenty of chances to relax, switch off and have fun — this is a proper family escape, not just a kids’ football camp.

How it works

You book your full holiday through Football Escapes — and we take care of the rest. That includes your hotel stay, access to the football course, and flights if you need them.

Family holidays are usually for 7 nights or more, with the Football Course taking place Monday to Friday.

The only way to guarantee your child’s place on the football course is by booking your holiday stay through Football Escapes.

Every Football Escapes holiday includes:

• Five days of morning coaching sessions led by a football ambassador and our expert coaches
• Signed shirt from the ambassador (per family)
• Personalised video message for your child before you travel from one of our ambassadors*
• Pitch-side photo with the ambassador
• Exclusive Football Escapes Nike kit for every child with their name and number on the back!
• Q&As, FC25 night, the Parents’ Game, medal ceremony — and more

Let us help you plan a summer break that’s as rewarding for parents as it is exciting for the kids. Football, sunshine, and time together — the way it should be.
