Catalunya 2012/13 Astore Home Kit

Administered by the Catalonia Football Federation or Federació Catalana de Futbol, the Catalonia football team represents the Catalonia region of Spain. The team is referred to by several names including Selecció Catalana, Selecció de Barcelona and the Catalan XI.

Catalonia is affiliated with neither FIFA or UEFA and team does not participate in the FIFA World Cup or the European Championship. However, Catalan players such as Carles Puyol, Xavi, Víctor Valdés and Cesc Fabregas are mainstays of the Spanish national team. The Catalan national team is currently coached by FC Barcelona and Dutch legend Johan Cruyff.

On Tuesday Catalunya 2012/13 home kit was presented to the press at the Museu Colet in Barcelona. The outfield play and goalkeeper kits were models by Catalan futsal and youth players Pau Morer (CF Damm), Clàudia Spada (Escola F. Bonaire), Manuel Martín (CE Sabadell), Joanna Vega (Levante Las Planas), Pol Pacheco (FC Barcelona) and Lluc Parera (Marfil Santa Coloma).

The shirt features an artistic motif in the colors of La Senyera (the Catalan flag) inspired by the dragon slain by Saint George (Sant Jordi) from its front to back.

Catalunya doesn’t currently have any matches scheduled this year. However, a friendly may be in the works for late December during the Spanish La Liga winter break. The team’s last match was a 0-0 draw with Tunisia at the end of 2011.
