IFX Team Tour Germany – GPS North Shore

This Summer IFX hosted the American U19 soccer team GPS North Shore from Boston in Germany. GPS North Shore, an official partner club of FC Bayern München, wanted to use their trip to Germany as a reward for their players as well as giving them the opportunity to develop their skills in a completely new environment. The focus was on coaching methods, team training, friendly matches but also the german culture and additional activities.

Regarding the coaching and team training, GPS coach Emanuel Brito, a former professional soccer player, had the chance to work closely with IFX’s partner clubs and their DFB-Stützpunkttrainer (official licensed coach within the german soccer federation and youth development system) who showed the coach some of the basics about the soccer system in Germany and playing soccer ‘the German way’.

In addition the team was guided by a Chaperone and received daily high quality training sessions in the morning under the guidance of licensed coaches from the DFB (German Soccer Federation)  and IFX’s partner club, where they focused on various aspects of the game. During their stay in a 4 star hotel close to the training fields, the team had the chance to participate in 3 friendly matches against German semi-professional youth clubs and could show their talent and development, while comparing the style and play between US and German soccer.

As additional activities during their Team tour with IFX, they had the chance to visit the ADIDAS and PUMA Outlet Stores and Headquarters in Herzogenaurach, exploring the facilities of two professional Bundesliga clubs SpVgg Greuther Fürth and 1. FC Nürnberg, experiencing the public viewing during the European Cup 2016 as well as spending an afternoon in the historical city of Nürnberg.

We would like to thank GPS North Shore for choosing IFX for their soccer Team Tour and wish the club and each individual player all the best in the future.
