ABOUT
Castellón
SPAIN
The international division of Primer Toque CF, the club opening its doors to ambitious players and teams from North America and Europe.
Since 2011, Primer Toque CF has developed players inside the competitive fútbol environment of the Valencia region.
Founded by Jordi Masnou and Valero Fraile, the club has grown around a clear approach to player development built on technical quality, intelligent decision-making, and understanding the game.
Primer Toque CF International is a new division of the club, created to open those same doors to players and families outside Spain.
It's not a separate academy built for foreigners. It's the same coaches, the same teams, the same standard, international players train inside real Primer Toque CF squads, preparing for the same matches as everyone else in the club.
Not a separate international academy. The same club, coaches, methodology, and standard.
Players can spend years developing within the same leagues, opposition, and familiar fútbol environments without ever getting the chance to see how their level translates somewhere else.
Primer Toque CF International creates a pathway for North American and European players, families, and clubs to access Spanish fútbol at the level that makes sense for where they are in their development.
That could mean three days learning the Primer Toque CF methodology, a week testing your level inside the club, competing in Spain with your team, playing in Torneo Primer Toque, or, for selected players, spending a full season developing in Castellón.
The goal is simple: create meaningful ways into Spanish fútbol so players and families can better understand where they stand and what comes next.
There isn't one route into Primer Toque CF International.
Players can come to learn the methodology, assess their level, compete with their team, play tournament fútbol, or pursue a longer-term development pathway.
Different players. Different stages. Different pathways.
