Washington DC, the capital of the United States, is much more than a global political hub. It is a vibrant city, rich in history, culture, and diversity. With its iconic landmarks, world-famous museums, and dynamic neighbourhoods, Washington offers a unique and stimulating setting for young people seeking learning and adventure.
Known for its international atmosphere and global outlook, the city hosts major cultural, sporting, and educational events every year. It strikes a perfect balance between urban life, green spaces, and opportunities for personal development.
On the sporting side, Washington DC pulses with the energy of its iconic teams such as the Wizards (NBA), Commanders (NFL), Nationals (MLB), and Capitals (NHL). It’s a city where passion for the game and athletic excellence take centre stage.
In this inspiring context, FC Barcelona has chosen to host its football camp in Washington DC—a city perfectly suited to combine sporting progress, cultural discovery, and unforgettable memories.

The FC Barcelona football camp in Washington DC will take place at the RFK Campus Fields, located at 401 Oklahoma Ave NE.
This flagship sports complex spans over 10.9 hectares and is among the most modern in the region. It includes three next-generation synthetic turf pitches, perfectly suited for high-level football training, along with additional facilities such as rest areas, landscaped paths, a covered pavilion, and well-maintained green spaces.
The RFK Campus regularly hosts major sporting events organised by Events DC and is well-known for its safe environment, high-quality infrastructure, and professional management. The site also features lighting systems for evening sessions, modern restrooms, and a large car park for easy family access.
Situated near the Anacostia River, in a peaceful and natural setting, the RFK Campus offers young footballers optimal conditions to train, develop, and thrive.
It is only natural, then, that FC Barcelona has chosen this venue for its football camp in Washington DC—guaranteeing an immersive, professional, and unforgettable experience worthy of the club’s prestigious reputation.
Catering and food
Each day, a lunch break is scheduled between 11:45 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. It is recommended to bring a balanced meal along with a reusable water bottle to ensure proper hydration throughout the day.
The camp programme is designed to respect the natural rhythm of the children: regular breaks are included during the training sessions, allowing them to rest, stay hydrated, and enjoy a snack provided by FC Barcelona.
Safety and security
Safety, well-being, and the personal development of each participant are our absolute priority. Supervised by trained and caring coaches, children benefit from personalised support that respects their individual pace and encourages steady, confident progress.
But this camp is much more than just a week of football. It’s a rich human experience where children grow, build self-confidence, learn to collaborate, and express themselves through their passion. Football becomes a powerful tool for personal development, in line with FC Barcelona’s core values: respect, humility, teamwork, and the drive to exceed oneself.
All of this takes place in a 100% secure environment, managed with professionalism and care—so that you, the parents, can have complete peace of mind regarding your child’s safety.

Training
The FC Barcelona football camp in Washington D.C. is based on the renowned methodology of the Barça Academy, recognised worldwide for having developed legends such as Messi, Iniesta, Xavi, and Busquets. This unique training model is built on a fundamental principle: to develop complete players—both technically and personally.
The Barça method focuses on four key pillars:
- Technical mastery: developing ball control, precision, and decision-making.
- Tactical understanding: learning to read the game, anticipate situations, and play intelligently as a team.
- Mental preparation: building focus, emotional control, and self-confidence.
- Human values: respect, humility, solidarity, effort, and teamwork.

Children leave the camp more confident, more responsible, and more independent, with a sharper understanding of the game and a positive mindset—on and off the pitch.
It’s an intense, formative, and inspiring week that leaves a lasting mark on each young player’s sporting—and personal—journey.
