BARÇA Academy is the flagship FC Barcelona school aimed at boys and girls between 4 and 18 years of age and its main objective is to provide a comprehensive training environment for their pupils.
The BARÇA Academy works via its own particular model, based on the Barça methodology which includes a creative and attacking brand of football and the promotion of positive values such as respect, effort, ambition, teamwork and humility.
The official BARÇA football academy is a school of life that nurtures young people through football. Its aim is to take the club’s style of play to the world, giving any boy or girl who identifies with our values and who wants to learn to play like BARÇA the opportunity to become a BARÇA player.
The club’s own, unique methodology is designed for sharing the BARÇA system with the world, exporting its style on an international scale through the BARÇA Academies in all five continents. Each of these BARÇA Academies is run by a Project Director trained at BARÇA, who receives specialist assistance from Barcelona and whose role is to implement this successful methodology and to ensure that the training quality and programme are in accordance with FC Barcelona system.
