Words from the Experts
Montserrat Taylor, CEO of ES Dubai, puts it best:
“Summer camps are ideal environments for making new friendships and learning to work as a team. Football, being a team sport, teaches young people to cooperate, communicate effectively, and face challenges collaboratively. Participating in a football program helps cultivate values such as respect, responsibility, perseverance, and leadership. These values are essential both on the field and in daily life, preparing young people for challenging situations outside of sports.”
Simon Hewitt, Head of Football Operations MENA, adds:
“The partnership with ES Camps will provide global teenagers the chance to come and experience the best coaching, amazing culture, and high-quality teaching from ES Camps. These camps are truly groundbreaking in the UAE, and we cannot wait to get them started in summer 2025.”
