Spain, World Champions.
The best football on earth has a method — and it's taught here, in Madrid, by TSG's UEFA-licensed coaches.
The principles of the Spanish method
The Spanish football method is a possession-based, positional style that trains players to keep the ball, create space and make faster decisions than the opponent. In 2026 it produced world champions — and it is the same methodology TSG delivers every week in Madrid, through UEFA-licensed coaches, to clubs, academies and players from across the world.

Spain, 2026 World Champions
In 2026 Spain were crowned world champions, confirming what the football world had watched build for a decade: a national style that wins by controlling the ball and the space around it. That success is not an accident of talent — it is the product of a methodology taught the same way from grassroots to the elite.

What makes the Spanish method different
Where many footballing cultures start with athleticism, the Spanish model starts with the ball. Players are taught to think in positions and passing lines, to keep possession under pressure, and to solve each moment of the game with the best decision rather than the most physical one. Repetition through rondos and positional games builds the technical base and game intelligence that define the style.
