The fourteenth edition of the Football Campus 'Antonio López' will be held in Benidorm from July 7 to 13 with the participation of more than 200 athletes of whom at least 9 will be girls, since this campus is male and female. This has been announced this morning by Antonio López himself, who accompanied the mayor of Benidorm, Toni Pérez, and the councillor of Sports, Arturo Cabrillo, at a press conference.

The mayor has indicated that "this edition will keep the two venues, the football fields 'Antonio López' in Rincón de Loix and the facilities of Ciudad Deportiva 'Guillermo Amor'". Toni Pérez stressed that "it is a very important sporting attraction for children between 5 and 15 years old, a sport that the majority of children in Benidorm plays", and added that "it also becomes a way of join tourism and sports, because, in addition to children, there are many relatives who come with them and take the opportunity to spend a week of holidays in Benidorm in July.

Antonio López recalled the importance of "having a working group made up of qualified technicians, with experience in the best clubs in the national field." The training sessions will be morning and afternoon, prepared to enjoy the sport of football and promote values ​​such as sportsmanship, respect, companionship, responsibility and friendship. López thanked the support of the City Council and recalled that "more than 130 children have already registered", so one more edition will exceed 200 entries to a maximum of 220.

Children from different parts of Spain will come to the campus, among which are Bilbao, Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Pontevedra or Albacete. Antonio López thanked "the support that the City Council has always given us to consolidate this campus year after year" and has also put the accent on "the evolution of women's sport, also in football, something that is especially important to me!" .
