About Us
On July 13 th , 2011, an agreement was signed between the Royal Humanitarian Foundation (formerly known as the Royal Charity Organization), the Real Madrid Foundation, and the Bahrain Football Association to establish the Real Madrid Academy Bahrain. This initiative, launched by the Real Madrid Foundation—the charitable arm of the renowned Real Madrid Club—aims to instill moral values and promote education through football. The program specifically targets orphans and underprivileged children globally, in line with the principle of community partnership.
The academy was officially inaugurated on May 6 th , 2014, and has since joined a network of over 200 Real Madrid academies worldwide. The Bahrain branch has brought joy to hundreds of young people in the Kingdom, benefiting boys and girls aged 6-17 years. The proceeds from the academy support the participating orphans.
Participants receive professional training and engage in tournaments and field trips, providing them with a well-rounded experience.
