LEHIGH VALLEY, PA. – (MARCH 28, 2023) – Voon Sports announces an agreement with the Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) Academy Pennsylvania in partnership with the European Football Group and its Performance Division, European Football Performance (EFP). The Paris Saint-Germain Academy Pennsylvania headquarters, located in Lehigh Valley, PA, is known for its superior training of youth athletes in its region and beyond. This agreement combines Voon Sports’ expertise in the latest generation of sports training technology with PSG Academy’s reputation for excellence and European Football Performance’s know-how in developing young player talent.         

PSG Academy players will be able to experience the same technology available to La Liga clubs including Real Sociedad, Valencia CF, RC Celta de Vigo and Leeds United in the Premier League, to mention a few. This will allow emerging youth soccer athletes the opportunity to train like professionals and improve their performance within the Academy’s facilities. 

The PSG Academy in Lehigh Valley, PA, will be the first youth soccer academy in North America to have integrated professional-level technology training, setting the highest standard for innovation and better development of youth players. The available capabilities through Voon’s technology and the entire European Football Performance ecosystem are driven by artificial intelligence. The ecosystem permits the detailed analyze of each player on: speed, power, accuracy, cognitive and sensory skills. This helps them to adjust specific parameters of their training in order to better improve their training and development on the field.        

This agreement will allow Voon Sports to take another step forward in its internationalization strategy and, in this case, a key market like the United States where the sport is growing in popularity. Voon’s objective is to expand its technology throughout North America with the help of the European Football Group.
