FCB Escuela de Baloncesto, which also manages FC Barcelona, is the first basketball school we want to talk about. This program is geared towards kids between the ages of four and twelve. Apart from the planned trainings according to the age of the students, there are also internal league games, and students can participate in the tournaments and conferences that take place throughout the course of the athletic program. In order to be on one of these teams, however, students need to pass a series of access tests. All the training groups have a coach that will help your child’s basketball skills soar. All practices and games take place at the Centro Deportivo Municipal Arístides Maillol Les Corts, located at calle Martí i Franqués número 19. Another option is Pau Gasol Academy; if there is one basketball player everyone has heard of in Barcelona, it’s definitely Pau Gasol. A large number of top-level coaches will train your kids and, along with nutrition experts, be in charge of keeping your child in top-notch shape and keeping their basketball skills sharp. While all their trainings and work are personalized, they also work to create a strong teamwork mentality, where players respect both their teammates and their opponents and always give 100 percent. The center also offers screens for free time as well as a pool, so your kids can enjoy their time there to the maximum. The main building is located at CEM Mundet, at calle Olympe de Gouges s/n.
