The fifth edition of the Real Betis Balompié digital publication TRECE BARRAS is now available for the Betis members. The June edition features Alexis, the Club's technical secretary, on the front cover. The technician from the Canary Islands details the Betis team he is constructing based on two basic premises that failed in the last season recently concluded: demand and commitment. We review the career of this green-and-white number seven back in the glory days.

We present a dossier of the new facilities at the Luis del Sol Training Centre. A complex that will be the new place of work for the first team with the best facilities for professional players, and for the supporters who come to watch the Betis B games. A qualitative leap in terms of facilities to improve our players' performance. 

The section ‘The photographs of…’ recovers the best photographs by Cañas. The team captain in 2005 opens up his albums revealing the best pictures of his time as a green-and-white player. We review the season's performance by the champion teams at the Heliopolis Academy as well as the three ladies teams, who have ever more supporters amongst the Betis fans. Macron describes the process of making the new club strip right from the initial design stages on the drawing board through to them being worn by the Betis fans.

TRECE BARRAS announces the publication of ‘The History of Real Betis as told by Manuel Simó’. This is the transcript of a long interview by Radio Sevilla with a man who dedicated 47 years of his life working for Real Betis Balompié. His grandson, Ricardo Hurtado Simó, has been responsible for publishing this key element in the history of Real Betis.

This anthology of texts about Real Betis Balompié is dedicated this month to Manuel Ramírez Fernández de Córdoba, a complete Betis supporter and fantastic journalist who gave us beautiful articles such as ‘From father to son, grandfather to grandson, a passion that is called Betis’, which recalls the team's rise in 94. One of the heirs of this green-and-white reporting tradition is Julio Muñoz Gijón, author of the Rancid Sevillian trilogy and editor of @Sefutbol, by the RFEF (Spanish Football Association). He reminds us of his grandfather's Renault 14 parked in front of the Grasa Institute. Juan Cruz Sol, former international player and director of Valencia CF, tells us of the opinions about Betis from the city that straddles the River Turia. The Material History centres on the 7,32 x 2,44 metres of the South Goal.
