I hadn't heard this. But it's not surprising. They've been in business for several years at this point and appear to have failed to produce a competitive program even at the mid level.

They have increased the number of teams every year. Teams full of paying players. I don't about you but that would be a successful growing business. How much the teams win is secondary.

Sure Jan. That’s why their 05 and 06 girls are about to disappear (we left last week due to unpromised claims like “having a full competitive team”)

So this is clearly a very objective post then.

Like any club they have good teams and bad teams.

This area has a very weird obsession with wanting to see new clubs fail.

What is considered Barca's best team(s)?

2003 boys blue aren't bad
2004 boys yellow is good
2006 boys yellow is good
2010 boys blue isn't bad
2011 boys garnet isn't bad

2004 girls blue isn't bad

2008 boys yellow is good

It's definitely a different story with boys teams. There are 3 boys teams at nearly every age group, with the top team being pretty competitive. I'd call that a success for a new club.

Girls side is not so successful. At most 1 team per age group. Some girls age groups have no teams and some teams are combined ages 2010 & 11s, 2009 & 08s. The 2004 girls team is the only one that's been able to keep a full roster and be competitive. It's hard to see how Barca can keep the girls program going without combining with another club that already has some girls teams.

Barca is a boys club that appeals to boys. They will not merge with another club.

They have to create winning teams at some point or the marketing will stop working. People go there because "Barcelona" name and they expect the kids to be getting a different level of coaching in order to justify the extra cost. If that doesn't become apparent at some point, then why would you keep paying more for something you can get elsewhere for 65% of the price?

Do the colors correspond to first/second/third teams - in which case, which is which? Or are they randomly assigned?

They’re contract isnt getting renewed with Revolution Sportsplex. Are all those boys going to LSC? DS team has several boys who left that club in the first place. I have a hard time believing they’re going back.

D) were you dropped at birth or do you practice this overwhelming display of intelligence?

As much shade you wanna throw at them they still don’t steal from you and ask you to call it a donation. Try not to laugh tho.

Throw shade? That is what I heard from someone a few years ago. I don't remember if it was travel team or a camp, but do remember they said it was thousands of dollars.

This is true, of course at thr time Barcelona was winning their domestic title and going to see practices most certainly meant a photo op with Messi. I think it was a camp.
