Players will be trained and allowed to use the state of the art facilities at the Chowgule Sports and Fitness Centre which includes a multi-gym, physiotherapy centre and an artificial turf ground. Besides that the players will be provided with nutritious food by the academy.

The selected boys will receive the best professional coaching from the BFA's full time team of experienced Brazilian and AFC qualified coaches. BFA also has a permanent strength and conditioning trainer and the entire coaching program has been designed by Glauco Moraes, an Ex-Gremio Youth Development Manager, who has worked with players like Ronaldinho, Lucas and Anderson.

The Brasil Futebol Academia, founded by Roberto Mendes Silva and Jose Ramirez Barreto, aims to identify and recruit young talent through the Academy's extensive scouting network. BFA have helped hundreds of young players since its inception in 2009 at amateur and professional level. BFA hopes that young players who aspire to become professional footballers will attend the trials and give them an opportunity to scout boys with outstanding potential. The Academy firmly believes that through the systematic process of consistent fitness testing and the incorporation of sports science within a football specific environment will offer an all round development.
