Tony personally runs two international training programs each year:
All Star Spring Break in Italy
Camogli, Italian Rivera:
- Always the week before Easter Sunday.
- Athletes are selected by application (space for 12 field players and 2 goalies of each gender- only high school age). Applications open in September.
- Athletes train with Tony and Ricardo Azevedo (& guest star international coaches) in the mornings and play against local clubs in the evenings.
- We are now also incorporating a high-level international tournament into the event.
All Star Croatia Trip every August:
Dubrovnik, Korcula & Sipan:
- By invitation only- Tony invites his favorite 12 field players and 2 goalies that he has worked with throughout the year (from all over the world). One male team, one female team- advanced high school age.
- Athletes spend 10 days training with Tony and his former JUG teammates (also Croatian gold medalists) and playing some of the best local club teams in the world. A truly incredible experience!
- Many athletes are from the 6-8 Academy or 6-8 College Showcase Series.
For other international experiences, we have two options:
