SHANGHAI – The final few weeks of 2015 are proving to be exceptionally busy for Inter Academy China.
The Nerazzurri coaches based permanently in the country were invited to the island of Hainan by Football Club Western Union to share Inter Academy's coaching and educational philosophy with local coaches.
As soon as they returned to Shanghai, there was an opening ceremony to attend for yet another partnership, this time with Lang Cheng school. Also present at the ceremony were management staff from local partner Yitao F.C. and various representatives of the Chinese Ministry of Education.
Currently, the school network jointly run with Yitao F.C. has 27 partnerships involving more than 1000 children from six to 13 years old. After Christmas and the Chinese New Year, work will start up again with an intense training period overseen by two coaches based locally for the entire semester. Staff from Inter's youth set-up will also come out periodically.
