The event
After the experience gained with the organisation of sporting and training events since the start of the academy project in 2011, we want to go one step further.
Therefore, MIFC is an event that offers you the possibility to combine sport and family tourism during the holiday season through an international football competition and multicultural experiences of the highest quality.
We believe in sport as a fundamental tool for education and training in values, to grow as an athlete and as a person with a healthy lifestyle.
Our success is based on it being a global experience for all groups in which participants, families and fans can experience the sport, culture, gastronomy, nature and traditions of Mallorca through a social experience so that they can share the days they spend on our island with people from all around the world.
Objective and goals
MIFC has the purpose of bringing cultures together, promoting a sports-tourism initiative and transmitting values with the philosophy of Mr. Vicente Del Bosque.
The intention is to contribute to the education of the participants, as well as to the promotion of all the fundamental values through football and coexistence with people from other countries, with different conditions, cultures, religions, etc… all based on respect for people and diversity.
As it is a sporting tournament, it also seeks excellence in the sport of football, enabling technical and sporting improvement through competition and the experience, together with other young people, that it provides.
