Are you a gamer? Then you're already ahead!
Quick reactions, strategic thinking, and problem solving — those are exactly the skills you use in AI and coding. Swap the controller for a keyboard, and create something real.
What is Mate Trainee?
Mate Trainee is Happy Mates Academy's trainee track for young people who want to combine physical activity with the technology of the future. Twice a week we meet for padel, AI training, and a good meal — in a safe community where everyone is welcome.
A Typical Day
Every Tuesday & Thursday · 2:00 PM – 6:00 PM
Padel
We kick off with an hour of padel on X-Padel's courts. No experience needed — we teach each other and have fun. Movement gives energy for the rest of the day.
AI Training
Two hours of hands-on training with artificial intelligence, automation, and programming. Learn to build with AI as your partner — from chatbots to automating everyday tasks.
Cooking & Socializing
We finish the day by cooking together and eating. An informal space to talk, network, and unwind after an intense day.
The Program: March – September 2026
