1. Arrival in Turin: Excitement from the First Moments

On October 27th, RC Rouen U17/U18 boys and Vyra Academy U15/U16 girls arrived in Turin for an exceptional international football experience.

Right after landing, the group headed to the hotel to settle in before enjoying a fun evening at a local funfair. Games, lights, and laughter set the perfect tone for the days ahead.

2. Full Immersion at the Juventus Training Center

The next morning, it was time for business. The players trained at the official Juventus Academy training center, including the pitches used by the Juventus Women’s professional team.

Guided by Juventus coaches, the session gave our players the opportunity to discover elite-level training methods and standards, an inspiring moment for every participant.

3. Visiting the Juventus Stadium & Museum: A Walk Through Football History

In the afternoon, the group explored the iconic Juventus Stadium, one of Europe’s most modern and prestigious arenas.

The stadium visit was followed by a tour of the Juventus Museum, where our players discovered trophies, legendary jerseys, and historic artifacts.
The day ended with a well-deserved shopping session at the official club store.

A quiet evening back at the hotel allowed everyone to rest before match day.

4. Match Day Preparation: Focus and Final Adjustments

The following morning began with another training session at the Juventus facility, with the aim of fine-tuning tactics and preparing for the afternoon matches.

Our goalkeepers also benefited from dedicated training with Juventus goalkeeper coaches, a valuable opportunity to accelerate their development.

5. Match Time: Intensity, Pride, and Valuable Lessons

● Match 1: Juventus Women U15 vs Vyra Academy U15/U16

Facing what is considered one of the best U15 women’s generations in Italy, our girls stepped up to the challenge.
Despite a 6–1 defeat, the performance remained positive, and the experience gained was invaluable.

This was high-level football, and players embraced it fully.

● Match 2: LASCARIS vs RC Rouen

RC Rouen boys then faced LASCARIS, a Juventus partner academy and reigning national champions.

At halftime, our players were leading 2–1, thanks to an incredible moment:
a 35-meter left-footed strike by Zongo straight under the crossbar, a goal that stunned everyone watching.

In the second half, with significant squad rotation after an intense weekend, LASCARIS came back to win 4–2.
A tough result, but far from deserved considering our level of play.

6. A Memorable Human and Sporting Adventure

This trip to Turin will remain a defining memory for both teams:

• Elite training sessions with Juventus staff
• Discovery of a world-class facility
• Historical stadium and museum tour
• High-level international matches
• Growth, cohesion, and unforgettable moments

We extend our warmest thanks to Juventus (specially to Miguel and Lorenzo) and their coaches for their exceptional hospitality and professionalism.

A truly unforgettable experience. We can’t wait for the next one!
