FFF Academy is a premier football academy based in New York, dedicated to providing young players with a complete pathway towards achieving their footballing dreams. As the first football federation in the world to open such an innovative structure, we are committed to offering world-class technical excellence and athletic development to our students, regardless of their nationality.
Led by experienced professionals, our technical program is headed by Jean-Claude Lafargue, former director of France’s Institut National de Football. With regular visits from Lafargue and the oversight of the FFF’s Direction Technique Nationale, our students are ensured to receive the highest standard of coaching and training.
At FFF Academy, we believe in investing in the future of football by providing opportunities for international development. Our academy is inspired by the FFF’s ‘Label Jeunes’ network, which recognizes clubs that prioritize youth development. We have also established partnerships with organizations such as the Ligue de Football Professionnel and Major League Soccer, further showcasing our dedication to promoting the sport globally.
