Barça Basketball Marks 100 Years

Next Monday marks exactly 100 years since the FC Barcelona board meeting that established the club's basketball section. According to historian Francesc Fernández, author of books on Barça basketball history, this moment was initially considered insignificant at the time.

Fernández, who is currently working on the third volume of his series on the section's history, emphasized the importance of celebrating this centennial. In his first book, he revealed that players in the original team were famously compensated with tortillas, highlighting the humble beginnings of what would become a legendary basketball program. sport-tr.bet
