In the summer of 2021, the MOJO team traveled to Spain to get to the heart of how the youth coaches of FC Barcelona help boys and girls learn the Barça Way.

What was once — and, in many ways, still is — the privilege of the select few who are welcomed into the Barça Academy, is now available for parents and players everywhere, through the MOJO app. 

And now, for the first time, MOJO is showcasing a plan for parents and players to grow and develop together.

Parents who enroll in the 4-week course will receive training activities to try with their player, each one progressively more challenging than the last. Each email helps you, as the parent, understand the why and how of each activity — and how to make it work for your player.

Through accessible parent education, and time-tested drills filmed with Barça Academy coaches and players, every player who commits to playing these seemingly simple games will — over time, with practice — completely transform the way they play the beautiful game.

Dribble with control. Pass with purpose. Shoot with confidence. Juggle with flair. Train at home the Barça way — only on MOJO.

Week 1: Dribble with control.

Dribbling is the first and most fundamental soccer skill. When dribbling the Barça Way, the focus is on control and keeping the ball close. 

Week 2: Pass with purpose.

Johan Cruyff, the inimitable FC Barcelona coach, once said, “Technique is passing the ball with one touch, with the right speed, at the right time, to the correct foot of your teammate.” Here is where you start that process.

Week 3: Shoot with confidence.

Every player loves to shoot on goal. But developing the kind of control, strength and precision to score takes time and — you guessed it — practice.

Week 4: Juggle with flair.

Players don’t just juggle for bragging rights. Juggling translates into increased focus, increased confidence and increased ball control.
