Sports club youth campus
The Stiftung Nachwuchs Campus Basel, in English foundation Youth Campus Basel, was established by Gigi Oeri in 2010. It was designed to foster the continuous development of FC Basel’s youth division. The foundation is officially registered with the Swiss company register. The foundation constructed and currently manages the campus facilities, oversees the renovation and operations of "Wohnhuus", and provides support in the administration of the youth department. Its primary objective is to facilitate the comprehensive training and advancement of young football talents.
FC Basel's youth department has garnered acclaim for its success. Since the club's relocation to the newly constructed St. Jakob-Park in 2001, more than 40 youth players have progressed to the first team. Many of these players have subsequently transferred to prominent European clubs, exemplified by individuals such as Marco Streller, Philipp and David Degen, Ivan Rakitic, Xherdan Shaqiri, Granit Xhaka, Breel Embolo and Yann Sommer. Additionally, numerous current first-team members of FCB have emerged from Basel's youth teams, including Fabian Frei, Valentin Stocker, Eray Cömert, Raoul Petretta, Samuele Campo, Taulant Xhaka, Afimico Pululu, Jozef Pukaj, Tician Tushi, Felix Gebhardt, Orges Bunjaku and Albian Hajdari.
FC Basel's youth department comprises the following sections:

The foundation’s aim.
The Foundation Youth Campus Basel was established in 2010 by the former FCB chairwoman, Gigi Oeri, with the objective of fostering sustainable youth football development in Basel. The foundation operates independently of party politics or ideology and maintains a charitable character, prioritizing non-profit goals. Its mission is to provide comprehensive training and advancement opportunities for young football talents, encompassing football skills, education, and personal development. To support the development of FCB's youth players, the foundation implements a dual training system, enabling players to pursue academic or vocational qualifications alongside their athletic training, thereby ensuring a holistic approach to their development.
