Football as a platform for learning, community and international experience.
Football Abroad works with municipalities, schools, clubs and organisations to design practical education, social-impact programmes and football experiences between Sweden and Spain.
Learning in real football environments
What we do
Three ways to create development through football.
We use football as a practical learning environment. Sometimes the outcome is a better coach. Sometimes it is leadership, inclusion or a stronger community. Sometimes it is an international experience a team remembers for years.

Clear offers for real target groups.
We do not only offer “tailored education”. We have programme frameworks that municipalities and clubs can commission and adapt to their participants.
Football, Decisions & Employability
A social-inclusion programme where learning on the pitch is explicitly transferred to education, work and everyday decision-making.
View programme →Decision-Making in Football Coaching
Coach education in how to design training that develops perception, options and better decisions.
View programme →Relevant experience
Education, EU-funded projects and a network built for delivery.
For municipalities and clubs, a good idea is not enough. The delivery partner needs educational experience, structured project capability and access to the right specialist expertise.
Coach education & pedagogy
Educational work has been delivered in Swedish club and school environments including Rågsved, Nacka FC, Tyresö, Danderyds Gymnasium and Atleticagymnasiet. Programme development is led by an educator with seven years of experience in Swedish schools.
Erasmus+ & structured delivery
Football Abroad has been a partner in INCLUDE ME and coordinates Silver Goals, creating experience in programme development, international partnerships, delivery and publicly funded project frameworks.
Specialist network
Delivery can involve coaches, educators and specialists in HR, recruitment, talent acquisition and football analysis from Football Abroad's network in Sweden and Spain.
Built around the right expertise
Football Abroad is a platform, not a one-person teaching offer.
Different programmes need different expertise.
Football Abroad works with a network of experienced coaches, educators and football professionals in Sweden and Spain. We build the team around the objective, bringing in specialist educators or coaches when a programme requires it.
Founder and Programme Director Antonio Guiu leads programme development and partnerships, while delivery can involve other professionals from the Football Abroad network.
Social impact in practice
Projects designed to create something useful locally.
EU funding is one route. Municipal commissions and partnerships are another. The point is not the funding mechanism — it is what the programme changes for people and local organisations.
Silver Goals
Connecting older adults with grassroots football clubs through volunteering, active ageing and intergenerational learning.

Start with the need. Build from there.
We do not start by forcing an organisation into a predefined methodology.
01 · Understand
Who is the target group, what needs to change and what constraints are real?
02 · Design
Build the right format, content and team for the objective.
03 · Deliver
Combine theory, practice, reflection and real football environments.
