Meet Our Team

A community born from the power of a single football but built on the collective efforts of individuals within it.

From hosting Barcelona’s #first women’s street football tournament in 2021 to organising weekly street football classes with our team of qualified coaches, our community is growing! We recently caught up with our Head Coach, @carolmarin8, to learn more about how she got started in football and what inspired her to join @__almaslibres.

My family has always loved football and encouraged me to pursue it from a young age - not just on the #street with other kids but also on a football team, even though I was the only girl.

I have been working with Almas Libres for over a year now, at Almas Libres, I want the women to enjoy training no matter their skill level, to be excited to come back each week, and to feel fulfilled by doing what they love. I want more women to believe they can do it, to know that football isn’t just for men. In the broader football world, I’ve spent many years in women’s elite #football, and the landscape has changed so much from when I first started. More girls are playing, clubs are committing to women’s sections, conditions are improving, and girls now have female role models. Every weekend, young girls come to watch us, and they want to be like us. That’s the most fulfilling part - leaving an #impact and paving the way.

Almas Libres x Basketball

Over the summer, we met with our team of coaches and community to hear why they chose to be part of @__almaslibres.

Over the last four years, we’ve watched this community grow stronger, together. From the dedicated souls who quietly coordinate behind the scenes to make the classes and events possible, to the passionate coaches who lead every session, it’s always been a team effort. Every success we’ve had is a reflection of the heart, hard work, and shared commitment of everyone involved.
