FC Barcelona Juniors Lujn Camp Nou

The leap in quality that gave CEFAR in recent times attracted the attention of none other than Barcelona, one of the biggest clubs in the world. Given lainfraestructura first world that has La Candela, in late 2006 chose Barca Training Centre High Performance players to carry out his plan for attracting talent. Jorge Raffo is the sports director and the CEFAR, about 200 boys and part of the Catalan club's quarry.


"There are different objectives. The first is to change the working methods of the teams here. In a land of great talents, if one adds a European methodology, and a European organization, we can achieve much Messi," says Raffo. He adds: "We seek the model of Barcelona youth system, in terms of organization, infrastructure and style of play. So I went there to copy the methodology. The most important thing for Barcelona is to develop a project in Argentina to Argentina. intention is to demonstrate the level can be achieved by uniting the talents of Argentine players and methodology of them. And the first step is to provide players for our country. "

The promises that will arise between clubs from Argentina to strengthen its talent, not to suffer the uprooting early, as happened with Messi. That is, the idea is that a player completes the lower and then try their luck in Europe. "Nobody will go before the 17 years," says Raffo. Another goal is to develop talent to join the U 15 or U 17, and show that they are there for Barca. "We do not we find another goal Messi, but hopefully so! If we are to make important players," adds Coqui.

The progress of the Project was so much in line with the leaders that President Joan Laporta and Txiki Begiristain, technical secretary, visited several times CEFAR to monitor the development of the promises and to underpin the management of Raffo.

"We have players from Catamarca, Formosa, La Pampa, Cutral Co, Chaco, Rosario, Mar del Plata, Entre Rios Coronel Suarez, among other cities. It is an educational, recreational and cultural. Kids get up at six in the morning breakfast and a bus takes them to school Don Bosco Ramos Mejia. At 13 return, lunch and afternoon train. then have school support classes. It is the very structure of La Masia (home of Barcelona in Catalonia) . And they also have recreational activities and living in the pension trustees who care for them always, "says Raffo. And closes: "This project is based on three legs: the development of sports, that of ethical-moral values, solidarity and responsibility, and intelligence. All objectives were met, not just athletic. But in style, coexistence, moral and ethical relationship with the institutions of Argentine football. We want to work with the institutions, giving them new talents. "

We chose Barcelona. We chose one of the largest in the world. Perfect example of sustained growth CEFAR, its infrastructure, teaching staff, and its work culture fall short of the world's most important projects.
