WE ARE PRO – Performance International – Real Sociedad.  At our training centers we want to make your soccer recruiting experience to the next level easier. We are looking forward to identifying American talented players to move on to the next level. Our focus is on developing technically gifted players capable of thriving in the modern game.

We have designed a program for the American player to excel and develop in a professional environment. In our years of experience, we have witnessed the American player has been overlooked time after time for the international player when it comes to college recruiting. We at PRO Performance – Real Sociedad have reversed the scenario.

The player scouting department is tasked with the monitoring, selection and transition of players operating outside of the Real Sociedad Academy environment. The scouting team will work collectively with our coaches to the identification of players within the three phases of the player identification process.

The priority of the department is to recruit, develop and produce players able to reach the Academy’s core purpose. This process is player centered, focusing on the identification of players able to excel in one or more of the four corners associated to player development at Real Sociedad in Spain.

The primary aim is to develop technically gifted individuals to send to Spain for the Real Sociedad experience and train with the squads who become accustomed to the club’s culture and playing philosophy through weekly training sessions and games, allowing for an easy transition into the Academy way of life. The major emphasis of the program is technical development. With the use of the clubs training facilities, and a structured coaching syllabus and games to increase the players to ball contact time in a fun, inclusive and professional environment. This will be a full-time program for the U17-U19’s residential academy once in Spain after the initial trial period.

Players from within the Pro performance network can be directly recommended by a member of staff for a trial period at Real Sociedad. The potential players are invited in for a trial period of up to eight weeks with Real Sociedad coaching staff and teams in Spain.
