Everton academy coach Neil Dewsnip says their young players benefited enormously from their trip to Brazil.
Everton competed in the 2010 Futures Tournament last month.
Dewsnip told evertonfc.com: "To go to that standard of tournament was incredible.
"If you asked 'who are the best nation in the world?', most people would come up with Brazil. So to take a group of Everton youngsters into Brazil and to be able to not only survive but to flourish was absolutely sensational as an experience."
