Barcelona Soccer Excellence are visiting the Bay of Plenty in September and October to run three-day training camps for the region's top youth football talent.
They will visit Rotorua and Tauranga as part of the newly formed Premier Football Partnerships with Nelson-based coach Matt Campbell.
Barcelona Soccer Excellence, led by former Barcelona youth player Diego Gomez and his team of UEFA-licensed coaches, has a presence in Spain, US and China and will visit New Zealand for the first time.
"We are excited to provide unique opportunities to young footballers in New Zealand," said Campbell, who is the general manager of a football development programme in Nelson and the West Coast.
"To get an organisation of this calibre, with their group of UEFA A licensed coaches involved, is a real coup for the programme and the region."
The programme is open to all football players between the ages of 9 to 17, both male and female.
There are just 64 places available in each camp so space is limited to ensure each student gets quality time with the coaches.
The clinics will run from September 29 to October 1 at Rotorua Boys' High School and October 3 to 5 at Tauranga Boys' College.
A clinic will also be held in Hamilton from September 26 to 28.
