WHAT MAKES US UNIQUE?
Many football schools focus on technique alone. At NFC Academy we look further. We work with a total concept, based on four pillars:
🔹 Technique & Tactics
🔹 Physical development
🔹 Mental resilience
🔹Personal guidance
Each player receives their own progress report and is evaluated regularly, so we can be sure that everyone gets the attention they deserve.

your growth, our mission
Welcome to NFC Academy – the place where passion, development and performance come together. As the official football academy of NFC Amstelveen, we guide young footballers between the ages of 6 and 18 in their full growth — technically, mentally and personally.
Our mission is clear: to guide young people in their full development, not only as a player, but also as a person. We believe that football is more than just scoring goals. It is about perseverance, cooperation and getting the best out of yourself – qualities that make you stronger on and off the field.
At NFC Academy we strive to provide a learning environment that is accessible, professional and future-oriented. Whether you dream of a career in the Eredivisie, or simply want to improve your skills: we offer the guidance that suits you.
