The training academy of FC Krasnodar is called "Chetuk" - this is the name of a small river, near which the base itself was built. Around you can see the picturesque bewitching landscapes. 10 kilometers separate the base from Krasnodar.
History
Sergey Nikolaevich Galitsky – if not for this man, the academy of FC Krasnodar, and indeed the football club itself would not exist. It is he who initiated the creation of all of the above. In 2008, the Krasnodar football club successfully obtained a license, and on February 22 received the right to participate in professional competitions and tournaments of the second division. Therefore, this day is considered the date when FC Krasnodar was born. Then Vladimir Volchek, who came from Moscow, worked with the team. The still very young Krasnodar team scored 30 points and finished the first round of the Russian championship in the “South” zone in fifth place, which is very good for a young club.
Training Conditions
Academy of FC Krasnodar has absolutely all the necessary conditions that are mandatoryfor a complete training session. Teams of high-class masters work at the training base, football players of the youth team, as well as youth teams practice. The players who are part of such a large-scale educational and training facility as the FC Krasnodar football academy have at their disposal full-size grass pitches (five in number), one small pitch, and a full-size pitch with artificial turf and electric lighting. The base also has a sandy field and a grassy area designed for tennisball games.
Recreational conditions
Football Academy of FC Krasnodar also has everything necessary for players and coaches to fully relax after productive training. Comfortable cottages were specially built for them. Each of them freely accommodates about forty people. But in the main building there are other components of the complex. A gymnasium, a swimming pool, a jacuzzi, two saunas, locker rooms, a canteen, a medical and rehabilitation center, and a hall where theoretical classes are held. There is also a summer gym. It is impossible not to mention the presence of car repair shops and, of course, a parking lot that can accommodate 40 cars.
Club infrastructure
FC Krasnodar is a unique club. From the very first day of its foundation, it came to grips with the development of infrastructure. And it was the right decision, because today it is one ofthe most powerful football bases in Russia. Already on May 5, 2008, Krasnodar residents drove into the Chetuk. But only in 2009, the construction and reconstruction work carried out on the territory of the base was completed. The work has been done on a truly massive scale. Today Chetuk is one of the best football training bases in Europe. I must say that Krasnodar did not stop there. In 2008, at the beginning of the summer, a Reserve Training Center was created. At first, the pupils studied on the fields of the Krasnodar base, but in 2010, work began on the construction of a children's football academy complex. In 2011, its construction was completed. And now the football academy of FC Krasnodar is one of the most successful in Russia and Europe.
