WE DEVELOP CHAMPIONS.

The ISA International Sports Academy offers all sport-loving students the best of two worlds: a calm environment for a concentrated study – and ideal training conditions that form the basis for a professional career in sport.

Our mission

Our sports director Mehdi Mahdavikia is one of those who knows exactly what is important in top training – the long-time HSV professional and former Iranian international is not only a co-founder of ISA, but has also made a decisive contribution to the development of our philosophy with his know-how. We ensure that this is implemented on a daily basis by highly qualified coaches and teachers who develop individual study and training plans for each individual student. So that children and young people from all over the world feel at home, our boarding and training area in front of the gates of Hamburg has up to 50 comfortable double rooms for up to 100 students in the age groups 8 to 25.

Regardless of whether a graduate later makes the leap to become a professional athlete or simply completes his studies – the values conveyed and the ISA network that has grown over the years remain for a lifetime.
