Aspire in the World Fellows

The Aspire Academy Global Summit is an integral part of the programme. It is an exclusive annual event reserved for Aspire Fellows and for the Extended Community, which enables the invited attendees to share their knowledge, experience, applied practice and research in Football Performance and Science. In a move away from the traditional conference presentation format, the Summit revolves around a series of roundtable discussions and workshops in order to encourage open debate and discussion between Aspire Fellows. In this way, the Summit is able to convey the different methodologies being used by Aspire Fellows around the world in the development of elite football players, whilst facilitating relationships amongst representatives of the Clubs, Federations and leagues. ‘Star chat sessions’ delivered across the Summit also draws upon the knowledge of leading managers, coaches and players within Football Performance and Science.
