EZRA IN SPAIN!

We are incredibly proud of former BUSC player Ezra VanCleave and his continued success on the field!



Ezra’s journey has been nothing short of inspiring. At just 12 years old, he was signed to the San Jose Earthquakes Developmental Academy. Now, he’s taking his talent to an even bigger stage—joining Barca Residency Academy and training with Barcelona’s renowned Youth Academy at the prestigious La Masia!

Ezra and his family have shared how much he is learning and growing at Barca, both as a player and as a person. He is deeply grateful for this incredible opportunity.


"We're grateful as a family for the foundation Ballistic laid for him in this beautiful game." – Matt VanCleave


We can’t wait to see where this journey takes him next. Keep shining, Ezra—we're cheering you on every step of the way!
