About Us
Our Story
The objective of the Valderrama Foundation is to support the local community by giving children and young people the opportunity to benefit from the academic, professional and sporting ecosystem developed in Sotogrande, which would otherwise be beyond their reach.
Why we exist
A legacy that opens doors
Valderrama is one of the great names in world golf. In 2025, the Real Club Valderrama community resolved that this legacy should open doors far beyond its fairways — for the young people of the Campo de Gibraltar and the surrounding areas, one of the areas of Spain where opportunity is hardest to come by. The Valderrama Foundation was created to build a lasting bridge between local talent and the extraordinary educational and sporting ecosystem of Sotogrande.
