Villa will be attending his “Meet and Play” youth camps with DV7 soccer, a training school and academy for players aged 6 to 13.

The camps focus on developing technical and individual skills of young players, creating smarter players through better game understanding and decision making, and sharing Villa’s personal style of play to help develop them further.
