Club Programs

Youth Program – Skills Club Camp

We will be bringing Cruzeiro’s Youth Trainers and Coaches from the Cruzeiro School from Belo Horizonte, Brazil to youth soccer clubs in the U.S. for 3, 4, or 5 day customized camps geared specifically towards the needs of each particular club.

Individuals and Teams – Chicago, Illinois

Skill Level: Basic Skill levels required the clubs include Brazilian style tactical, technical, or conditioning as well as position specific options such as keeper, play maker or striker training.

Brazilian Training Program

Hosted in Brazil at Toca da Raposa, the Brazilian National team’s former training facility in Belo Horizonte, this extensive training program includes all the options offered in our Club Camp – Tactical, Technical and Position training plus daily video sessions taping and reviewing, and scrimmage game sessions with Cruzeiro’s Junior team with post game review. This program includes all transportation, meals, on-site hotel accommodations plus full use of Cruzeiro’s facilities such as fitness facility, movie theater, and swimming pool all in a security monitored facility including medical department.

Team Training Camps

For any team wishing to improve their skills as a team, Cruzeiro will offer either of its training programs and work with the team coaching staff to create a specific program based on the skills of the players and focus on the team’s needs. This program is typically a multi-week program that focuses on repetition and instills the Brazilian style of play. Ideal for the youth teams trying to focus on future college play.

Cruzeiro USA Select Team

Throughout our training activities, Cruzeiro will be offering a few highly skilled players from the United States to of fer tryout opportunities for Cruzeiro’s Junior teams or a future Cruzeiro USA club team. These sport unities are based on the level of play in Brazil at the given age level and maturity. It is Cruzeiro’s hope to create a Cruzeiro USA club team that will allow strong skilled U.S. players to participate within professional leagues within the United States that potentially will act as a feeder team for our Brazilian teams.
