Secret Brazilian youth training six treasures Chinese soccer poor where
In the "Kingdom of soccer" in Brazil, the reporter watched a few soccer clubs youth training, from the Brazilian A of Sao Paulo, to the Brazilian B of Da Gama, and then specializing in the training of Brazilian sports clubs, each condition is uneven, but there are a few "must have" and these are most of the Chinese football lack of training. Although the conditions of each vary, but there are a few "must-haves", but these are most of the Chinese soccer youth training is lacking.
While Brazilian soccer suffered a debacle at the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, as the world's top player exporter, its youth training is still worthy of Chinese soccer.
First, the venue is excellent. Located in the S?o Paulo suburb of Cotia, the S?o Paulo Club Youth Training Center can be considered the best conditions for youth training in Brazil, with a playing field with bleachers inside the base for youth matches. There are also several different types of natural turf training fields. There is even a special field for goalkeeper training to prevent excessive damage to the turf in front of the small penalty area when goalkeepers train.
The giants like Sao Paulo are a minority in Brazil, and Rio's traditional rivals Da Gama, who were relegated to Brazil's second division just last year, don't have the same youth training conditions as Sao Paulo, but the training base that once produced Romario still has six standard fields with turf that is maintained by specialists. In the state of S?o Paulo, the Brazilian sports club is specialized in youth training, their base was acquired by the Chinese Super League's Shandong Luneng (microblogging data) club in July this year, Luneng sent young players to Brazil to train with the club. The name of the base has been changed to the Luneng Brazilian Sports Center, which has seven turf training fields, including two five-a-side fields.
Secondly, there is a focus on medical care. The S?o Paulo youth training base is located in a valley, and at the top of the hill is a 5-star hotel, with conditions exceeding even those of many first-team training bases. It's not just the accommodation that's impressive, the base also has a huge gym, a physiotherapy room, and even a specialized dental clinic and manicurist for the young players. The Da Gama Youth Training Base and the Luneng Brazilian Sports Center are also equipped with medical rooms, massage rooms, and physical therapy rooms to minimize the damage that injuries can do to young players.
Third, the elite route. China's youth teams, generally accustomed to two years as the basis for the division of the team, from U13, U15, U17 to U19, and emphasize the odd-numbered years mainly, this is mainly for the Olympic Games, the World Youth Championships, the Asian Youth Championships and other major competitions to prepare. In Brazil, on the other hand, all the ladder teams are divided by one year. Sao Paulo team youth training, for example, players from U13, U14, U15, U16, U17 until U20, the main purpose of doing so is to avoid the young players affected by the difference in level due to age, so as not to miss the good seedlings.
Fourth, each has its own responsibilities. The reporter examined these youth training bases, regardless of size, basically every age group of the echelon are equipped with technical coaches, professional fitness coaches, scouts, dietitians, doctors, psychological counselors and human resources management personnel, from the body to the psychological, from the intellectual to the physical, to create a targeted training program for each player.
Fifth, the daily "five meals". In the Brazilian youth training base, the reporter found that the body of the young players are generally very strong, and a big factor behind this is the diet. Come to their cafeteria, you will find that the food are similar, but only roasted meat and black beans and rice. Although the flavor is monotonous, the nutritional value of these foods is extremely high. And the base provides the players with "five meals" every day to ensure that they have the nutrition they need.
Sixth, learning and entertainment. Brazilian youth training bases are very focused on the learning of young players, although there is no school in the base, but every day to arrange a special bus to send them to the outside school learning. Interviewed youth training coaches generally believe that players just play football is not good, must have wisdom. In addition, after the boring training and study, most of the bases have recreation rooms for players to surf the Internet, watch TV, play billiards, swimming and so on.
