About this camp

Liddes United Football Camp is for football-loving girls and boys aged 10 to 15. It takes place in the mountain village of Liddes in the Lower Valais, Switzerland. The football pitch is a 30-second walk from the chalet.

Every week combines 15 hours of language lessons in English, French or German with 9 hours of football training. This is not a professional training camp. It suits enthusiasts who play for fun, and passion matters more than level.

Students stay on full board with activities, excursions and 24-hour supervision.
