During mid-January took place a very important event for the Academy. Barça Residency Academy Arizona invited some of our most talented players to evaluate them. It was an amazing week full of soccer, development, and Barça Methodology. Eight of our Barça Academy players went to tryout in a very competitive environment and enjoyed the whole experience with other talented players from Barça Academies from all around the country. 

It is important to remember that the Barça Residency Academy Arizona has the MLS Next license, being able to compete at the highest national level among the best academies in the country. The residency also offers the possibility to study and to live in a full board experience. This is a clear pathway for our academy players to continue developing their potential on their way to college and professionalism. 

During the tryout, our players had the opportunity to enjoy the outstanding facility in Casa Grande, in a 24/7 experience. They enjoyed all the comforts offered by the residence and lived the experience of feeling like Barça Residency Academy players for a week. 

Hopefully soon we can see some of them in the Barça Residency Academy!!
