History
The Five-a-Side Football teams started in 1994 in the heart of the Barcelona Fan Club of Santa Susanna. The chair fell on the person of Josep Ribot, and as the trainer, Toni Sangerman led the team from the 3rd Division B group 2 and which finished the season in fifth place.

In the second season (1995/96) the team finished sixth.

In the third season (1996-97) the team broke away from the Penya Barcelonista (Barcelona Fan Club) and a new board of directors was formed by Josep Solà, Emili Garcia and Xavier Monreal. A new time had begun for a very young team with little experience and an entity starting from scratch. Therefore, tenth place seemed to them a very hopeful start.

In the 1997-98 season, new players were signed to strengthen the squad. The team was promoted to 2nd division B, group 3, of Barcelona. For the first time, F.S. Santa Susanna had to move to play a game in the facilities of the Quatre Camins prison in la Roca del Vallès. The interest was double. On the one hand, they would be playing against a team following them in the classification and, on the other, they would visit the penitentiary centre. The players from Sta Susana won by a difference of three goals, 4-7.

The team was going well in the 1998-99 season, but some members left it to form their own team in Malgrat. They lost what was still the most outstanding game (3-2 to Quatre Camins), but ended up in twelfth place in the league.

For reasons of economy and travel, during the 1999-00 season they had to change category and province. They joined the province of Gerona to play in the Provincial Division of Honour and the experienced Juan Rodríguez Flores was the trainer who ran the new team. The results came fast: they ended up seventh and played very well.

In the 2000-01 season, they managed to gain promotion after ending up second in the league, and the team also won the Copa Diputació, organised by the Gerona Federation, and did so without losing a single game, only conceding two goals.

They were fourth in the 2001-02 season.

A new stage started in the 2002-03 season. The majority of players had been signed by the higher divisions and they signed players from F.S. Pineda, which had also played in the higher leagues. The aim was to get to an interprovincial category and be able to travel around Catalonia. They were in the Barcelona division of honour and ended up in the lower half of the table, but without any danger of relegation.

In the following season, 2003-2004, they were sixth. This season the club broke up, not because of the entity, but rather because of the players, who did not want to get involved with the team.

After a year without Sta. Susanna, Salvador del Valle and Carles Civit decided to create it once more in 2005. The board is made up of young people involved in the sport and they have the unconditional support of the Town Hall. The category they chose to start this new project was the Barcelona third division. The team has a very strongly bound changing room, with people of all ages. The team has managed to reach sixth place and has a chance of getting among the first three at the end of the season.
