LAST PLACES FOR THE FC BARCELONA SOCCER CAMP

Great success in Livigno for registrations to the Cantera FCBarcelona. Last few places available on ww.fcbcampitalia.com.

In Livigno, that is the only stage in 2016 in Lombardy and Northern Italy of the official FC Barcelona camp in Italy,  it’s already blaugrana fever! The Camp, which is aimed at boys and girls from 6 to 16 years old and is organized by Macsy Srl as FCBEscola official licensee, is almost sold out. Form June 26 to July 1, 2016 Livigno hosts this important sporting event, involving young people from all over Italy, but also from abroad. There are few places available for those interested in letting the dreams of their children become true.

 

Remo Galli, councilor for sports of Livigno Municipality said:  “With over 70 boys enrolled in FCBEscola Camp in a few days, we broke all records; they come from all over Italy and abroad! We reached an important results, I’m really satisfied. I thank everyone, in particular Macsy s.r.l., for giving us this opportunity, and Marco Faccinelli  who is coordinating the event. It was an expected success with an un expected wide appeal. I think I can safely say that the combination FC Barcelona / Livigno has already won. That’s good for our town that is developing more and more even in the summer tourism. I hope that many of our children will attend the camp to understand the sport values and to know the importance of a proper nutrition, led by real professionals from all over the world. So full speed ahead! and thanks to the start of work on the athletics track and the new football field foreseen in 2016 in the coming years we may try to bring in Livigno also professional football teams. We also hope to continue working with brands such as FC Barcelona organizing specific camp for our kids and residents. This year, the risk of losing the Camp FCBEscola because of the small size of the sports field Santa Maria was concrete, but the great attention paid by Macsy srl to our town has not allowed this to happen. Now we all are looking forward to the arrival Cantera in Livigno ".

 

So concludes Symon Buda, CEO of Macsy srl: “We are very happy and also genuinely surprised. We did not except such an immediate and positive result. More than five months before the event and the places are almost sold out. There are only very few places available. I invite those who are still interested in registration to do it now, because soon we will close the Camp. The response was strong from local families, a sign that football and Barcelona represent a strong and real passion also in other regions of Italy, that means that Livigno is an important brand. Soccer and tourism are a winning combination. The chance to learn play football with FC Barcelona in Livigno represents also for Macsy, an extraordinary opportunity and a bigger sport field would give all of us even better prospects for the future.”

The trainings are led by the Cantera FCBEscola coaches, who will pay a lot of attention to the technical part of the training and will try to find the way to teach children the values, that are important for FC Barcelona in Cantera, as altruism and the desire to stay together. Some of the Camp participants will have the chance to be selected for the "Team Italy FCBEscola", which will take part in Easter week 2017 at the international tournament of all FCBEscola teams in Barcelona. In addition to this, other Camp participants will have the opportunity to be invited to Barcelona to train for a week at the FCBEscola together with the equal Blaugrana category.
