The 24-25 season kicks off at the Antonio Puerta Football School



The Antonio Puerta Football School experienced one of its stellar events of the season yesterday, the inauguration ceremony for the new school year at the Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán stadium. Hundreds of children gathered at Sevilla FC’s stadium to kick off a season filled with excitement, football, Sevillista values, and fun. The event was attended by Sevilla FC president José María del Nido Carrasco, players Juanlu, Agoumé, and Pedro Ortiz, as well as female players Esther Sullastres, Diana Gomes, and Pamela González. Numerous fun activities were organized for the students, along with a simple public presentation for the parents where the school’s operation was explained.

“We are entering the 16th year of the school that bears the name of our eternal number 16. A number that tells us very different things. As always, and above all, this school is the best possible tribute to our Antonio Puerta. At Sevilla FC, we remember him and keep him in our hearts every day, but I believe that through his name in this school, with his name on the lips of all these boys and girls, it is one of the most cherished things for Antonio, who I’m sure is watching you all with enthusiasm and pride. The second meaning of 16 is that these 16 years of this beautiful project mean it is more alive than ever, instilling wonderful values in our children: equality, fraternity, teamwork, education, and sport. You need to play sports and have fun, but also study and educate yourselves, because education will give you the freedom to choose,” the president told the students.

The event featured a mini football fair before and after the ceremony, with the main novelty being a magician’s performance, and as last year, a freestyle football show. Additionally, the children were able to tour the official bus of the first team. The final spots for enrollment in the 2024-25 school year are available through this link.

The American Aiden Webb will be part of Sevilla FC ‘D’

Sevilla FC D, the international team of Sevilla Football Club, adds a new player to its ranks from the United States. The team now has a new international representative with the incorporation of Aiden Webb. The player, born in Texas, is already training under the direction of Óscar Olomo and his coaching staff to prepare for the start of the Tercera Andaluza season at the end of September.

Webb, 19, describes himself as a winger with “pace, dynamic and skillful” and has expressed his satisfaction with his first experiences training with his new teammates at the Ciudad Deportiva José Ramón Cisneros Palacios facilities: “It’s been a lot of fun, and I’ve learned a lot in the short time I’ve been here. I’m excited to keep growing, not only as a player but also as a person.”

As for his adaptation, the player notes, “It’s very hot, but it’s also hot where I’m from. It’s beautiful, the country is stunning, and I’d say the food is great too. The first week was tough, I had to adjust, but I think I’ve finally found my rhythm and I’m gaining confidence.”

Webb’s arrival comes within the framework of the creation of Sevilla FC D as the club’s new international team, and the American footballer is very grateful for the opportunity: “I think it’s a great opportunity, and I’m really thankful to be here, playing for a big club with a lot of history and titles.”

Finally, the player shares a message for other players who want to develop in programs like Sevilla FC’s international team: “Work hard every day, even when you don’t feel like going to the gym or working out, you just have to do it. Those are the most important days, and even if you make a mistake, forget it and focus on the next thing.”

Sevilla FC launches NFC season tickets

Sevilla FC, together with LaLiga, has implemented NFC (Near Field Communication) technology in the season tickets for the 2024/25 season. The club, which has already made the season ticket available to subscribers in digital format via a QR code, will now also have a wireless season ticket (NFC), allowing fans to enter the Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán much more fluidly. Thus, by simply bringing the electronic device close to the wireless scanner located at the turnstiles, season ticket holders will be able to enter the Sevilla stadium more easily. All of this is part of a continuous improvement of the club’s services to help spectators.

NFC passes will be available on both iOS devices (the Wallet app on your iPhone or Apple Watch) and Android (the Google Wallet app on your Android phone or Smartwatch). The digital ID cards will also continue to work with the usual QR code on those electronic devices where NFC is not available. It should also be noted that the physical, NFC and QR cards will not be incompatible, highlighting that once the physical season ticket has been scanned, the digital one will no longer allow admission, and vice versa.

Season ticket holders will receive an email from [email protected] through which they will be able to download their season ticket for the 2024/25 season.

The NFC season ticket is an example of the commitment to technology that Sevilla FC has been making over the last three years to facilitate the management of the club in all areas and to continue the success achieved in previous seasons in various innovation and technology projects.
