Baylor School: Spain’s Sporting Home in Chattanooga

Spain has found the ideal setting at Baylor School in Chattanooga, Tennessee, to establish its training base during the group stage of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, where the national team will face Cape Verde, Saudi Arabia and Uruguay.

The facilities are located less than ten minutes from the Embassy Suites by Hilton Chattanooga Downtown, the team's headquarters throughout its stay.

Set in a privileged location and boasting a strong sporting tradition, Baylor School offers Spain first-class facilities, including two natural-grass football pitches, changing rooms, swimming pools, a fully equipped gymnasium, meeting and work rooms, and a large multi-purpose area featuring a giant screen. The complex also includes a spacious Media Centre designed to support the daily work of journalists, photographers and broadcast crews covering the national team throughout the tournament.

All facilities are located within the same site, allowing for a more efficient and comfortable operation for players, coaching staff and federation personnel.

Preparations at the complex began several weeks before the team's arrival. The RFEF's Production and Procurement Department, working in coordination with various federation areas, travelled to Chattanooga to oversee all logistical arrangements and customise the different spaces. From the training grounds to the working and communal areas, every part of the facility has been branded with the identity of the Spanish National Team.

The objective has been clear: to ensure that from day one, the players are welcomed into an environment that is familiar, comfortable and fully tailored to the needs of a team preparing to compete on football's biggest stage.
