PARENTS


At BVB International Academy, we believe that a strong support system off the field is just as important as great coaching on it. That’s why we see our parents as essential partners in every player’s journey.


Whether you're cheering from the sidelines, helping manage schedules, or simply encouraging your child after a tough game, your involvement matters — and we’re here to guide you every step of the way. From clear communication and structured development plans to parent education resources and community events, we’re committed to making the experience as meaningful for you as it is for your player.
