FARA International Soccer Study Abroad Programs - Alternatives to Youth Soccer Camps , Youth Boarding Soccer Camps, Youth Soccer Academies, Youth Soccer Camps, and Youth Soccer Team Tours Abroad.

Soccer Exchange Programs

Our most popular program, the International Fútbol X-Change, gives players of all ages, the opportunity to experience football and life in another country. FARA's IFX programs include the Pro IFX for adult players, the Youth Year IFX, a year long soccer study abroad program, and the Youth Summer IFX, a 2-week long summer soccer immersion program. IFX programs are superior alternatives to soccer camps and soccer boarding schools in that players train and compete WITH the foreign clubs rather than simply training with other program participants. With the exception of the Youth Summer IFX, players are typically the only FARA player on the team, enabling the players to fully experience the foreign culture and language, and to learn not only from UEFA licensed coaches, but also from their fiercely competitive foreign peers.

Players are immersed in a foreign culture, possibly amidst a new language, with players from all corners of the globe. It is an unforgettable life experience, providing a new perspective on the different walks of life that all share a passion for the same beautiful game.

FARA Action Days are specially designated professional soccer games of various professional leagues throughout the Americas, where clubs dedicate a portion of their proceeds to FARA's cause.

FARA is closely involved with the promotion of each Action Day, where FARA representatives are present to pass out literature and anti-racist propoganda. There are generally special events at each game including cultural foods, music, and other festivities.

Games are either league games between two clubs from the same country or specially designated international exhibition matches and tournaments, where fans can easily experience the excitement of another culture while celebrating their own.
