The sporting Facilities
The National Sports Center (NSC), located at 1700 105th Ave NE in Blaine, Minnesota, is the largest amateur sports complex in the world, covering more than 600 acres.
Opened in 1990, it features over 50 soccer fields, a golf course, a convention center, an eight-sheet ice arena called the Super Rink, and a soccer stadium with seating for 5,500 spectators. Each year, the NSC hosts major events such as the USA Cup — the largest soccer tournament in the Western Hemisphere — attracting more than 1,100 teams from 19 countries. In addition to soccer, the complex includes facilities for hockey, figure skating, speed skating, rugby, ultimate frisbee, and lacrosse.
The NSC is operated by the National Sports Center Foundation, a non-profit organization, and receives over 3.8 million visitors annually, making it the most visited sports facility in Minnesota. Its dedication to the development of amateur sports makes it a must-visit destination for athletes of all ages and levels.
Catering and food
Each day, a lunch break is scheduled between 11:45 am and 12:30 pm to give children time to rest and refuel. It is recommended to pack a balanced lunch and a water bottle to help them stay properly hydrated.
The camp is structured to respect the natural rhythm of the children, with regular breaks throughout the day. This gives them the chance to rest, hydrate, and enjoy a small snack provided by FC Barcelona. The goal: to combine effort, fun, and well-being in a supportive, healthy, and positive environment.
Safety and security
From the moment they arrive, children are welcomed into a warm and safe environment where everything is designed to make them feel heard, respected, and truly at home. The spirit of the camp is based on a kind and attentive presence that celebrates each child’s uniqueness.
The coaching staff works to provide a personalised space for growth, where each child moves forward at their own pace, in line with their needs and strengths. The goal is not just to develop soccer players, but to help children grow as individuals — in an atmosphere of trust, respect, and steady progress.

Training
The FC Barcelona camp offers much more than just a week of soccer — it’s a full immersion into the world and values of an extraordinary club. Inspired by the methods that shaped iconic players like Messi, Xavi, and Iniesta, this program encourages children to approach soccer with discipline, intelligence, and creativity.
Each day blends technical drills, tactical awareness, mental development, and the teaching of core values such as respect, humility, and cooperation. The aim is not only to improve on the ball but also to grow as individuals.
With coaches certified by Barça, children train in a structured, supportive, and motivating environment where team spirit and self-confidence are cultivated. A meaningful experience — both athletic and personal.
Coaches and coaching method
Camps organized by FC Barcelona are far more than just athletic activities — they are true educational journeys designed to help every child grow, both individually and as part of a team. From the very first moment, everything is structured to provide a safe, supportive, and stimulating environment, true to the rigorous teaching philosophy of the Barça Academy, recognised worldwide for its excellence.
Here, certified coaches do more than teach technique — they are true mentors, listening to each child, understanding their needs, and adjusting their guidance to help every participant flourish. Every drill becomes an opportunity for growth — on the field and in life.
This camp is about more than just soccer: it’s about teaching respect, teamwork, discipline, and humility. The ball becomes a tool for learning and self-discovery, in a setting that is challenging, caring, and deeply human.
