Germany Costs Effective September 2009

As we proceed into the beginning of the 2nd season in Germany we have had to fine tune costs as a result of the continuing fluctuation of the Canadian dollar versus the Euro. The fine tuning is quite simple as we are only setting the German costs in Euros now instead of the Cdn dollar. Nothing else will change.

You will continue to receive the following during your stay in Germany with us:

1. Rent
2. Ground Transportation throughout Germany
3. Food and snacks
4. Training
5. German lessons
6. Private Fitness training sessions
7. Utilities
8. Internet and telephone
9. Academy Clothing
10. Tryouts

For the Full year program the cost will be 7500 euros and does not include your airfare or private insurance. You are of course insured through the German Soccer Association as a player, once you receive your German player card. You will also train for the first 3 months before you go to any major Clubs for tryouts as we have found this is the most effective way for you to be as ready as you can.

You will automatically be placed on the Heimstetten Under 23 #2 team or the Heimstetten under 19 team upon arrival and will play for those teams and work your way up. Through the training you receive in our morning sessions as well as your training in the afternoons with your Heimstetten team you will receive a minimum of 20 hours a week of just soccer training. When you add the private fitness training and your games, you will see that with around 25 plus hours a week of European Soccer you will be immersed in the game and improve your opportunities.

The 3 month program includes the above but does not include numbers 5, 6 and 9 nor will you be placed on a team. You will train in the morning and would attend some tryouts if they are available. Cost will be 2500 Euros. While there if you decide you want to stay for the full year you of course would need to come up with the balance of 5000 Euros right away.
