Ole Bakken, 15 🇳🇴
"I attended the Train effective camp with the aim of improving my mentality and motivation for further investment in football. I am curious about my capabilities as a player and whether they rhyme with my goals and dreams. The stay was my first trip alone so a good adult education to become the best version of myself came as a bonus. I highly recommend Train Effective. I will definitely be back!"

You gain more than just knowledge and development in your football abilities, but on top of that, you gain amazing friendships with coaches and people you look forward to seeing everyday at the camp and crying from having to leave them at the end. This is an opportunity of a lifetime for anybody considering to go!"
