THE ACADEMY
The Juventus Youth Academy has been recognized as one of
the best Academies in Italy for producing young talent, with
many graduates going on to play in top divisions in Italy. All
the Youth Academy teams train at the club's main training
ground called Juventus Center, located about 9 miles
southwest of Turin. Many notable players have come up
through the ranks at Juventus to play on both the first team
and the full Italian naEonal team like Alessandro del Piero.

The F.I.G.C., also known as the Italian Football FederaEon,
was founded in 1898. It is the governing body of Italian
soccer and organizes the professional divisions of Italian
soccer, as well as the Italian naEonal soccer teams.

The primary training grounds are located at the F.I.G.C.
headquarters in Coverciano in the hills of Florence, Italy. The

the most successful naEonal teams in World Cup history,
garnering four World Cup Etles. Some of the most legendary
footballers of all Eme have come through the doors of the
F.I.G.C., including arguably the best goalkeeper of all Eme,
Gigi Buffon; free kick specialist Andrea Pirlo; and Italy’s most
