A delegation of fifteen of the best players from the PUMA partner clubs in the USA have visited Dortmund and they experienced the full BVB programme.

BVB had the fifteen best young football talents of the American clubs Cincinatti United, La Roca and the Gwinnett Soccer Association as guests at the beginning of November. The exciting and eventful days for the US boys in Dortmund started first of all with a training session at the Academy of the BVB Evonik Football School.

On the next day the American delegation had the opportunity to see the Footbonaut and of course try it out for themselves. The boys were very excited and had lots of fun. After that the next surprise followed: Christian Pulisic, the American U19 player under contract with BVB made himself available to his young fans to answer questions and he gave them an insight into the every day activities within the Youth Academy of Borussia Dortmund. Before they continued with their tour of the training ground, the boys were able to get some good tips from Chrsitian Pulisic about what it takes to develop from a Youth Academy player to a professional football player. In the evening the whole delegation went to see the Europa League game against Gabala FC and they experienced the unique atmosphere in the Signal Iduna Park.

The following day started with a tour of the most beautiful stadium in the world and to have a good look behind the Black Yellow scenes. In the evening there was then the match against a team of the Evonik Football School, where the US boys managed to be successful and win on goals.
