Professional Program (MPEP)

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]

A High Performance Academy with the objective of developing intelligent, open-minded, well educated, employable players with values.

What it is:

The end goal of the Marcet Professional Eurofootball Program (MPEP) isn’t signing players, but qualifying potencial professional athletes for future signing to other clubs. Those who complete this stage of training will be on their way to kickstarting a successful sporting career. Each year, dozens of Marcet’s scholars are signed to teams all over the world and find themselves on the elite european footballing market, as Marcet’s Hall of fame shows.

Although the career of a football player is short lived, an ex-football player’s isn’t. For that very reason, it’s crucial a successful athlete be cultured and academically prepared so that he can build himself a career beyond his sporting one. In this sense, an academic education is a fundamental part of the MPEP Programme. At Marcet, focus on developing both sporting and academic skills go hand in hand.

When it takes place:

The Professional Program normally lasts the entire school year, from September to June. However, it is also possible to follow it for a shorter period of time, the minimum and base unit being one month. If the player wants to follow the course for a few weeks, his option should be the Checking Program.

Where it takes place:

The program takes place in Barcelona city, at the Marcet headquarters. Sometimes players travel to other locations to compete and participate in tournaments.

What it includes:

Accomodation and course options:

  • Sports scholar: Includes a partial sporting programme. Doesn’t include residency, maintenance or management of academic studies.

  • Full sports scholar: Includes complete sporting programme. Doesn’t include residency, maintenance or management of academic studies

  • Daytime scholar: Doesn’t include residency. Includes complete sporting programme, half the pension and management of academic studies.

  • Full-time scholar: Includes complete sporting programme, all-inclusive residency and management of academic studies.

        Professional Program

        The objective of the Marcet Professional Eurofootball Program (MPEP) is not to sign players, but to prepare future footballers so that they are suitable to be signed by other clubs. Those who pass this stage of preparation will be able to start their professional career successfully. Marcet students put themselves in the showcase to make the leap to European elite football and every year dozens of them are signed by teams from all over the world, as confirmed by the Hall of Fame of this High Performance Academy.

        But if the life of a footballer is very short, the life of a former footballer is very long. For this reason, it is essential that a successful player is also a cultivated person with an academic preparation that allows him to forge a professional future once his sports career is over. In this sense, the studies are a fundamental part of the MPEP Program. At Marcet, sports training and academic training always go hand in hand.

        The High Performance Academy does not intend to sign players, but to prepare them so that they are suitable to join the discipline of professional clubs

        Prepare to make the leap to professional football. This is the objective of the players who attend the Professional Program (MPEP), the flagship product of the Marcet Football University, which has a limited number of places per year. Its full duration, of 10 months, includes High Performance sports training, academic studies and residence in the center of Barcelona, ​​with the possibility of making times and general conditions more flexible according to the needs of each student and their families.

        Every year the Professional Program has more than 200 students from all over the world, who come to Spain to improve their level of play and put themselves in the showcase to be able to reach elite football. In this sense, it is important to emphasize that Marcet does not intend to sign players, but to prepare them so that they are suitable to join professional clubs in the First and Second Division.

        The MPEP is a demanding programme, which has two or three daily training sessions and a first-rate competitive calendar that includes clashes with the best academies in Spanish and European football. But all this is in no way detrimental to academic training. Because if the life of a footballer is very short, the life of a former footballer is very long. For this reason, it is essential that a successful player is also a cultivated person with an academic preparation that allows him to forge a professional future once his sports career is over.

        At Marcet, football and studies always go hand in hand. In fact, in this Academy, academic training is not only highly recommended, it is also compulsory. The stars of its Hall of Fame are both professional soccer players and students who have found success through their studies. Therefore, each player has various training options depending on age, country of origin or their abilities. Any study is good if it serves to complement the player’s training and make him a complete person and prepared for the future.

        Program objectives:

        • FREEDOM, because a player is free when he masters all the skills of the individual technique and can do what he wants during the match.
        • VALUES, because developing these human strengths is essential to succeed both in football and in extra-sports life.
        • INTELLIGENCE, because it is essential to know how to quickly make the most appropriate decisions at every moment of the match and of life.
        • FUTURE EMPLOYABILITY, because the talents required by the best clubs in the world are the same as those required by the world of work outside of football.
        • ACADEMIC SOLIDITY, because the key is to use soccer as a reagent to enhance the academic performance of students.

        The Professional Program occupies the entire school year, from September to June. However, it is also possible to follow it for shorter times. From Marcet we recommend contracting 10, six or three months, but the participation of other periods of time can be contemplated, the minimum and base unit being one month. If the student wants to follow the course for a few weeks, their option should be the Checking Program.

        The program takes place in Barcelona city, in the sports city of Marcet Football University. Students travel punctually to other places to compete and participate in tournaments.

        There are four different registration modalities, which differ according to the number of contracted services:

        • Sports only afternoons: Includes a partial sports program. Does not include residence, maintenance, or management of academic studies.
        • Complete sports: Includes complete sports programming. Does not include residence, maintenance, or management of academic studies.
        • Sports and academic day: Includes full sports programming, half board and management of academic studies. Does not include residence.
