Pro-League Residential Soccer Training Program!

Our School of Sports presents Pro League Residential Soccer Program at our Mang'u Campus, the first of its kind in Kenya. The program runs during the school holidays on a full-time residential basis. It is offered in conjunction with partners and well-wishers who have offered limited sponsorships on a first-come-first-served, soccer talent and need basis. (See details in the application form)

Rationale for the Program

Did you know that kids who are interested in Pro soccer barely get enough training to understand what Pro league soccer entails?

It is generally accepted that it takes a minimum of 10,000 hours of training to master a skill. Did you know that if your kid does 2 hours of soccer training per week, it will take your them 96 years to cover the required 10,000 hours of training? 3 hours of training will take them 64 years, 4 hours of training will take them 48 years and 5 hours of training will take them 38 years. (For more information on the 10,000 hour rule watch this video) Put differently most of the so called “soccer training” from the many “soccer academies” are at best recreational. It cannot give your child the exposure they need for Pro league experience.

There is an even more serious implication on the matter of inadequate training. Because your soccer loving child has never been exposed to Pro level training conditions, they really do not know what it takes to train at that level. For most kids therefore, a career in soccer is only a mirage, an illusion fueled by the mushrooming soccer academies out to make a quick buck.

Your kid therefore has no idea of the standard of professionalism and intensity associated with Pro level soccer training and performance.

The Program

If your child is ready to experience soccer the professional way, our School of Sports (one of the 4-in-1 Intaspordiasm Schools) has designed the Pro League: Residential Soccer Program specifically for them.

The program is designed to give your child a Pro League training experience by mimicking the structure, intensity, and quality of Pro level training , typically found in professional soccer academies or leagues. The program is designed to give your child a taste of the intensity it takes to train, play, sleep, wake, think and live soccer 24/7 like a pro!⚽

Applicants who qualify for the program will be hosted for a residential training in our Mang’u Campus. They will go through a rigorous Pro level training program, every holiday. The schedule for 2025 is as follows.

Pro-League Level Training Emphasis

It is important for applicants to note that this program is designed to meet the Pro level training demands and not to meet or accommodate schedules and interests of individual applicants as in the amateur commercial programs that dot the city. At Pro Level, absolute commitment is a non-negotiable. Those who cannot, for legitimate and various reasons, commit to a fulltime 24/7 intensive Pro Level training program should NOT apply. Recreational and flexible training regimens exist in a myriad of “soccer academies” and would be available for those seeking flexibility and accommodation. This program’s integrity depends on maintaining Pro level standards, and absolute commitment is a basic minimum. The requirements include:

  • Intensity and Commitment: A fulltime 24/7 commitment to rigorous daily training sessions, often spanning several hours, including technical drills, tactical strategies, and physical conditioning. Participants must commit full-time to the program, mirroring the schedule of professional athletes.

  • Focus on Performance Metrics: Readiness to be held accountable to measurable performance outcomes through advanced digital tools providing feedback on, commitment, attitude, aptitude, suitability and technical skills.

  • Specialized Training: Commitment to position-specific coaching, sports science-backed conditioning, injury prevention, and recovery programs tailored to individual athletes.

  • Career Development and Professionalization: Commitment to formal classes including formal assessments on knowledge on career-oriented components like scouting exposure, brand management, financial literacy, and navigating contracts.

Applicants have to realize that the professional approach demands a greater investment of time, resources, and mental and physical effort, setting the foundation for success at the elite level. They have to get out of the recreational programs mentality they are used to that prioritize accessibility, fun, and general fitness without the professional-level pressures and expectations.
