We are pleased to announce the latest LFC International Academy venue to open in Japan.

Located in the Azabu area of Tokyo, this facility will provide a fantastic opportunity for young Japanese players to learn to play the Liverpool way.

Programmes will be available to youngsters between the ages of five and 12 with the opportunity to improve their football skills and develop in the technical, tactical, physical, mental and social aspects of the game through age-specific coaching sessions.

Through the unique coaching methods of LFC, there will also be a focus on improving key life skills of the young participants, including teamwork, confidence, motivation and communication.

Talking about the latest expansion, head coach Neil Murphy said: “We are delighted to be opening our latest branch of the LFC International Academy Japan at the Nishimachi International School in Tokyo. We have been met with a huge amount of enthusiasm for the project and we are really looking forward to getting underway so we can provide opportunities for young players in the Tokyo area to learn to play the Liverpool way”.
