"River Plate’s academy, La Escuela de Fútbol River Plate, begins admitting players at the under-7 level with the aim of producing professional footballers for the first team. The football played at River Plate demands its players to combine skill, intelligence, and tactical nous with the tenacity they bring from playing in local sides and in the streets hoping to be spotted. As such, the footballing curriculum is structured around competencies that translate directly to game play.

The first step for a player is building a sound technical foundation. Scouts comb the streets of Buenos Aires before setting out around Argentina, searching for raw talent in direct competition with River Plate’s nearby rivals, Boca Juniors."
