MILAN – FC Internazionale Milano and SoccerDream announce that they are partnering to give players joining Inter Academies around the world, access to the first Virtual Reality Soccer Training platform that will help players improve and bring them the opportunity to feel closer to the Academy based in Milan.

SoccerDream VR training software was tested in the Inter Elite Academy Argentina to test the improvement of U13 elite players from a cognitive standpoint, in particular their ability to better position on the field while attacking to support the teammate in possession of the ball. While training on the VR environment with virtualized training drills, the software has been providing them real time feedback to guide players’ thinking and guarantee they improve how to move without the ball. After 3 months program where the participants have been training with SoccerDream VR combined with their regular Elite Academy training, coaches have provided an outstanding feedback on the improvements they have seen on the real football field, decided to continue using SoccerDream, plus the players highlighted that they love and enjoy using it.

After the positive output of the test, Inter and SoccerDream are announcing their partnership to work together in helping more and more young players around the world, extending the use of SoccerDream VR training platform to more academies and through several other channels overtime, in continuous evolution.
