Train Abroad

Washington, USA
“This program changed my life. As a result of TOVO I am on my way to start a pro career in Holland. Todd Beane is a football genius. I have learned to see the game in a way that no other coach has shown me in my 19 years as a soccer player.  The TOVO staff is a collection of knowledgeable, kind, and qualified people. The program offered me a disciplined lifestyle that supported my development as a player with the right sleeping habits, eating habits, and training habits.” 

Johnny joined us from Seattle and spent six months training at TOVO Academy Barcelona. As a result of his commitment to learning and his passion for the game, Johnny has earned a remarkable opportunity to play professional football in Europe.

After leaving TOVO, Johnny signed a professional contract with ADO Den Haag in Holland.

“TOVO is not only the place where I drastically improved my caliber of play, but also an extraordinary site for development as a human being. In addition to becoming a smarter, more intuitive player, the joy, creativity with which I play now is directly attributable to my time with TOVO and the people there. Never have I felt so at home in a place that is not my home, with people that are not directly my family.”

Sandor came to us from Sacramento Republic eager to take his game to the next level. A swift and capable player, Sandor needed to work in his decision-making and his ability to take full advantage of the best option before him. He fully embraced every training and made the type of commitment required to maximize his potential. A good student and a wonderful young man, Sandor continues to connect with his TOVO family worldwide.

Sandor was offered admission to Yale University.

Regina, Canada
“At TOVO, I felt that I became part of a family and a culture that I had not experienced before. Not only did I receive individual and group training and assessment, a tutor was on site to assist with my schooling as well. Above all, I gained a level of confidence in my ability, and I felt that I matured hugely as an individual. As a result, I was able to perform at my highest level and have been selected to play for the Mount Allison University Men’s Soccer team. To put it simply, TOVO cares. Thank you for caring for me and helping me be the best that I can be.”

Cody understood the limitations of developing himself as a soccer player in central Canada. He was motivated to see that game differently, to play the game more intelligently, and to reap the benefits of a full immersion in Spain. We guided Cody through a rigorous program so that he could realize his full potential. He is a remarkable young man and we have not doubt that he will bring to Mount Allison a maturity rarely seen in young players.

After leaving Tovo, Cody was accepted to Mount Allison University.

Portland, USA
“TOVO changed my life. The program is not one dimensional, it covers everything. I obviously became a better footballer while in Barcelona, but coach Beane forever altered the way I look at the game. He taught us how to be well rounded through cognition, competence, and character. I learned so much about life through my TOVO family and that is what I loved about my stay.”

Joey is an exceptional young man on and off the pitch. He came to TOVO to learn to about football and immersed himself completely in the culture and community. As a player who holds no physical dominance over his peers, Joey needed to understand that his best asset would be an in depth understanding of position play. To his credit, Joey took full advantage of the program and will forever be part of TOVO family.

After leaving TOVO, he returned to the Portland area and was selected to play for Region 4 ODP representing the US in a tournament in Costa Rica.
