FROM THE DIRECTOR'S OFFICE

A handshake in Barcelona.
A standard in Houston.

Official partnership
Signed off. Then shipped to Texas.

Every season the academy direction is reviewed face-to-face with the club. Nothing about RCDE Houston is a copy — it's the real methodology.

"We're not licensing a logo. We're carrying the same methodology, the same standard and the same crest from Cornellà-El Prat to Richmond, Texas."

Same handshake. Same standard. Houston.

OFF THE PITCH

The badge travels.
So do we.

Road trips, team dinners, post-match hot chicken. The strongest squads aren't built on the field — they're built around the table afterwards.

Three points, two thumbs up, one extra sauce.

Win or lose, the squad ends up at the same table. The parents come too — that's how the team becomes a family.
