The Academy Greenwich

WELCOME TO THE TOUR

VIRTUAL TOUR

The London Academy is the largest sporting facility of its kind in Europe. Built on the Greenwich Peninsula next door to The O2 (formerly The Millennium Dome), it is one of the first stages of a huge development complex that will transform the area into an entertainment village.

David's dream to bring professional quality football facilities to all boys and girls is fully realized in this incredible venue. Take the next step on the virtual tour to get a taste of what a day at the London Academy is really like.

ENTRANCE

COME IN AND GET GOING

Sign in at reception and then collect your fantastic free kit bag. Packed with adidas boots, socks, shorts, shirt and sweatshirt, it's all you need for your day at the academy. And you can take it home at the end of the day too.

GALLERY

DAVID BECKHAM PAST AND PRESENT

Now walk down the museum corridor and check out the signed shirts and boots from football stars like Wayne Rooney, Ronaldinho and of course David Beckham himself. Wouldn't you like to see the boots which hit that free kick against Greece in 2001?

CHANGING

TOP CLASS FACILITIES

Even the changing rooms are amazing! David has ensured that all areas of the Academy are as good as they can be. Decorated with funky football designs, they have everything you need to scrub up and kit yourself out for a day of footballing fun

THE PITCH

TOP CLASS PITCH

Get ready for an awe-inspiring, jaw-dropping experience! This is the best indoor football facility anywhere in Europe. When you walk out onto the two full-size pitches you'll feel like a professional footballer. Now's your chance to play like one!

NUTRITION

GOOD FOOD, GOOD FOOTBALL

David knows that what goes on out on the pitch, starts with what's going on inside you. You'll learn about the importance of what you eat and drink, like what fruit gives you the most energy and which is David's favourite vegetable. And best of all you get a healthy hot meal for lunch and drinks and healthy snacks throughout the day.

TRAINING

LEARN THE BEAUTIFUL GAME

After playing out on the pitch, give your brain a work-out by learning how to be a better footballer. Tactics, team formations and skill-specific lessons such as 'Utilising your time and space' are just part of how David's team of world-class coaches will help you to transform your game.

PHYSIO

WE AIM TO SPEED UP YOUR RECOVERY, SAFELY AND PROFESSIONALLY

If you do hurt yourself while at the academy, you will get the same medical treatment as a professional footballer. The Academy has its own fully equipped treatment room where anything from a niggle to a real knock can get the best possible attention.
