Who we
are?

Futbol First is a global youth soccer community for players and families who love the game and everything that comes with it.

It’s a space where the real journey of youth soccer – camps, academy life, international experiences, opportunities, setbacks, dreams, and sacrifices – is shared, embraced, and championed.

By bringing players and families together, Futbol First provides guidance, educational tools, and meaningful programming to support young players through their development, on and off the field.

Mision

To support young soccer players and their families through our community by providing guidance, education, and a values-driven focus on well-being and long-term development.

We help youth navigate the soccer journey with clarity, confidence, and balance, on and off the field.

Vision

To be the world’s most trusted community for youth soccer, where the journey is shared, honesty and guidance are central, and soccer helps kids grow as players and as people, both on and beyond the field.

A community where players feel understood, families feel supported, and success is defined not only by performance, but by the lessons learned and who they become through the game.

Who is behind
Futbol First?

Marc Segarra and Alex Isern, the founders of Futbol First, have experienced firsthand the deep bonds and lasting impact of the soccer journey.

Their story began in Barcelona, playing in the youth system of CE Europa, where they built a lifelong friendship. Driven by their passion for the game, they continued their journey together in the United States, earning the opportunity to play Division I soccer at Winthrop University.

“Futbol First is built on a simple belief: the journey is bigger than the outcome.”

Those years shaped not only their understanding of the game, also highlighted what is often missing in today’s youth soccer environment. Having seen the flaws within the system firsthand, they built Futbol First to be a different kind of home: one that prioritizes holistic growth and restores the essential values that every young player deserves to experience.

While they did not go on to become professional players, their journey through soccer led them to build successful careers beyond the pitch. After their playing years, they founded ISL Agency, which has grown into a global soccer powerhouse working with some of the best teams and players in the world.
