Why 7MANiA
What the branded academies in Abu Dhabi don't give you.
01
Three premium venues
Nord Anglia Al Reem Island, Sheikh Zayed Private Academy Al Bateen and The Ritz-Carlton Abu Dhabi — pick the pitch closest to home.
02
Every level is welcome
Branded academies filter on trials. We start with first touch at U4 and build a competition squad by U16 — nobody is turned away at four years old.
03
Coaches who stay
The same coaching team follows your child season after season, so development is tracked by people who know the player, not rotating franchise staff.
ProgrammesSix squads.
Six squads.
One pathway.
Every age group has its own page with training format, focus and a player profile form.

My son joined not knowing anyone and within a month he was asking to train extra days. The coaches actually know him by name.
