Barra Futebol Clube, usually known as Barra or Barra-SC, is a Brazilian football club from Balneário Camboriú, Santa Catarina.

The club was initially notable due to holding the federative rights of some players, like Yann Rolim, Guilherme Biteco and deceased Matheus Biteco.

History

Founded in 2013 by a number of businessmen, Barra played in the Campeonato Catarinense Série C in their first three seasons, achieving promotion in 2015. In the 2021 Campeonato Catarinense Série B, the club achieved a first-ever promotion to the Campeonato Catarinense as champions with an unbeaten status.[1]

In their campaign in the first division, Barra managed to avoid relegation, and finished fourth in the 2023 edition, qualifying to the 2024 Série D for the first time ever.

In 2025, after another fourth place in the previous year's Catarinense, Barra inaugurated a stadium (Arena Barra FC) and a training ground.[2] Despite only finishing ninth in the state league, the club achieved promotion to the Série C on 6 September, after defeating Cianorte in the quarterfinals.[3]

On 4 October 2025, Barra became champions of the Série D after a 2–1 aggregate win over Santa Cruz; with 12 years of existence, the club became the second-youngest to win the fourth division, only behind Retrô.[4]
