ABOUT THE DIRECTOR
Born and raised in Madrid, Spain, Carlos Tello grew up with a passion for the game from a young age. Following in the footsteps of his father (also a professional goalkeeper), Carlos developed an early talent in the net. After seven years playing with Real Madrid's prestigious Academy teams and then another ten years playing for the likes of professional Spanish teams such as Sa
n Sebastián de los Reyes, Alcorcon, Alcalá de Henares and Móstoles C.D., Carlos decided to move to the United States in 2007. HOW IT ALL STARTED
In 2013 and after six years coaching at the university, high school and youth levels in Atlanta, GA, Carlos decided to combine his love of Spain with his passion for soccer by bringing the first youth team to Madrid. Having long-standing professional relationships with the coaching and directive staff of the Spanish Federation as well as those of some of Madrid's world-renowned teams, Carlos thought "I have the contacts in my hometown, and the kids who have the motivation to travel... So, why shouldn't I organize a trip that combines my passion for the game with my love of Spanish culture?"
