In our first school year 2024-25, we have not organized international programs. However, we are planning a Japan tour called the “Urawa Experience”.
This program will include exploring the Urawa Reds’ training facilities, taking part in friendly matches and cultural exchanges with Urawa Reds Academy Japan, and watching Urawa Reds’ professional team’s match at Saitama Stadium.

Q. Does the academy organize tournaments or extracurricular activities for students?

In addition to regular training sessions, the academy sometimes organizes friendly matches, internal tournaments, and extracurricular activities to help students improve their match skills, teamwork spirit, and make new friends.

Q. Does the academy support students in developing toward a professional football career? Does it provide certificates?

Currently, the Academy does not aim to train students for a professional football career, and we do not provide certificates. We are a grassroots football school open to everyone, not an elite academy for selected players.
Our focus is on developing football skills, enhancing problem-solving and decision-making abilities on the field, teamwork, and improving overall fitness and health.
However, as part of Urawa Reds, we share a consistent philosophy, spirit, and training methodology – the “Diamond Method”. If we find potential players, we may recommend them to the elite academy.
