Barcelona Ohio Soccer Club brings an exceptional, professionally run youth soccer program to Pickerington and Central Ohio.
We offer programs year round and for all ages and skill levels - select soccer, an alternative to high school soccer program, our Barcelona Ohio Juniors program for children ages U7/U8, a recreational program, and summer, winter, and pre-season training.
In April 2011 the Barcelona Ohio Board of Directors entered into an agreement to collaborate with Barcelona USA (B-USA), the youth soccer branch of Penya Barcelonista California #1437, an official affiliate of FCBarcelona, based in Los Angeles, CA. B-USA (a DBA) is a youth soccer development organization that since 1999 has studied and adopted the methodologies and player development concepts of "total futbol" as they relate to the system of "tiki-taka" soccer.
Disclaimer: Barcelona USA IS NOT an official FC Barcelona Academy. However, (as a DBA) it is the soccer arm of the official Barca Penya in California. Barcelona OH is an official partner of Barcelona USA, representing the state of Ohio, within the Total Futbol Collaboration Program.
Barcelona Ohio is the only soccer club authorized to represent the state of Ohio in the TOTAL FUTBOL ACADEMY Collaboration Program.
We are committed to providing an unparalleled experience for all who have an interest in the sport of soccer. We promote the spirit of sportsmanship, the electricity of competition and the importance of pure enjoyment. We provide the opportunity to play developmental and competitive soccer, and specialized training programs to all who participate.
All players will learn and have an understanding that they all play an important and vital role in the success of their fellow players, teammates and club in which they represent.
