WHere You Train

Castellón de la Plana (45 mins north of Valencia) is home to Primer Toque CF and the center of your fútbol experience in Spain. This is where players train, compete and experience the club’s methodology, coaches and everyday development environment.

Rather than training in a separate international setup, visiting players and teams step into the same fútbol culture that exists here throughout the season.

Where You Recover

Just a short drive from Castellón, Benicàssim gives players a place to switch off between sessions. Walk the seaside promenade, get some fresh sea air and enjoy a slower pace before getting back on the pitch. In summer, the beach is right there too.

Recovery is part of the program, not a break from it. Time away from the pitch helps players rest, reset and come back ready for the next session. For families, Benicàssim is an easy place to spend the day, with cafés, restaurants and the sea all close together.

Fútbol and Mediterranean Spain

The experience is built around both sides of the destination.

Players come to Castellón for the fútbol: the training, competition, coaching and club environment. Outside the pitch, Benicàssim gives them the chance to experience the Mediterranean coast, Spanish food, local culture and everyday life in this part of Spain.

For families traveling with a player, it means the trip can become more than a fútbol program. While players are training, parents and family members can explore the coast, enjoy local restaurants and experience Castellón and Benicàssim for themselves.

More Than the Place You Train

Where you train matters. So does everything around it.

Primer Toque CF gives players access to an established Spanish fútbol environment, while Castellón and Benicàssim make the time away from the pitch part of the experience too.
