During the week from 1 to 7 April, three of our cadet students (1997 and 1998) from InterSoccer Cadet B team of Alcobendas-Levitt Football Club, traveled to the Italian city of Brescia, to participate just few miles away, in a cultural and sports exchanges with kids from the local club, Real Leno Sports Society, an emblematic club junior level of Lombardy and currently also prestigious AC Milan Soccer School.
Diego Garcia Mendoza, Facundo Capdevielle and Shukhrat Shukurov, enjoyed this trip thanks to the agreement reached last November between the President and Real Leno sports directors and the InterSoccer Madrid Academy president. After meeting through Daniele Paccagnan, AC Milan Junior Camp responsible for formation and also currently InterSoccer football training adviser, and other technical responsible and also coach of Real Leno, Edoardo Sacchini.
The three young Academy players lived there, as a team member, with the families of three other young players of local team, Giovanni, Filippo and Michael, respectively. They trained and played some friendly match with cadet team members of Real Leno. Also accompanied by Edoardo and InterSoccer director, visited the beautiful Lake Garda, the largest in Europe, Brescia, Cremona (where they were received in their sports city by “Cremonese” team leaders, and the last day of their stay in Italy, accompanied by our beloved Daniele, they met the responsible for training of all AC Milan schools, Silvio Broli. They visited the Duomo of Milan, the AC Milan official store.
And last but not least, hours before getting to the airport, the big surprise kept by Daniele: the visit to the Sports City “Settore Giovanile” of AC Milan to attend a derby held by the host team against Inter and was absolutely amazing for them, to meet in person the legendary international “rossonero” player, the Pipo Inzagui.
Before leaving Leno, on Friday afternoon, after a memorable training where it rained non-stop and after saying goodbye to the other players of “their team” and other technicians and employees of the club, lived in intimate moments along the President, Mr. Angelino, team managers and good friends, Mauricio and Edoardo, the kind ladies while staying there made them enjoy the fantastic Italian cuisine and the families of their friends forever, Giovanni, Filippo and Michael. There, among the anecdotes, souvenir gifts, “auguris” and the purpose of sharing new projects, was adjourned to such a magnificent human experience of cultural and sports exchanges among young people from different parts of the world but linked by a common passion, football, there called “calcio”.
Soon we will also have here in our residence of Alalpardo, returning the visit, the three young Italians … and progressively more. Our agreement with Real Leno will continue in our common desire to exchange the best training experiences for both clubs and those of our Academy Intersoccer. The accompanying photographs speak for themselves! Ah! Facu, Diego and Shu, showed a high level “calcistic” in all its presence both in the different training-ground and natural grass-like game in the last day.
