Our Story
Founded in 2019 in Dubai, ABC Sport Academy was born from a passion to empower youth through football. With decades of elite football experience, our founder Abdolali Changiz — a former Iran national team player and head coach of Al Ain Youth — envisioned a space where young athletes could thrive both on and off the pitch.
From the very beginning, we’ve focused not only on technical excellence but also on building character, leadership, and confidence in every player. What started as a single training program has grown into a respected academy known for discipline, integrity, and results.
