Futbol Club Barcelona Femení B is a Spanish football team based in Barcelona, in the autonomous community of Catalonia.
Founded in 2000, it is the reserve team of FC Barcelona Femení, and currently plays in Primera Federación, playing their home matches at the Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gamper.
Reserve teams in Spain play in the same league system as the senior team, rather than in a reserve team league. They must play at least one level below their main side, and thus Barcelona Femení B are ineligible for promotion to Primera División and cannot play in the Copa de la Reina.
The first Barcelona women's second team existed by 1978, as Peña Femenina Barcelona Atlético. In the 1978–79 Catalan Cup competition, P.F. Barcelona Atlético finished as runners-up after losing the final on penalties. Their coach was Ramón Llach. Both of the Barcelona teams in 1979 were able to train and play at FC Barcelona's facilities, due to support under new club president Josep Lluís Núñez.
A "B" team was created in November 1988, after the 1988–89 season's Catalan Cup but before the start of the leagues. The club Gracia Cal Majó merged with Club Femení Barcelona to become the subsidiary team, then known as Barcelona Atlètic. This team competed in the Lliga catalana that season (with Barcelona in the Liga Nacional), but had also advanced to the next round of the Catalan Cup along with Barcelona. They competed again the following season.
Barcelona Femeni B had to withdraw from Primera Nacional Femenina during 2007–2008 season because of the relegation of the first team, but they returned in the next season after Barcelona Femení was promoted back to the Superliga Femenina. In 2016 they became the champions in the group III of Segunda División for the first time in the history of the club. In September 2016 a record seven players from Barcelona B were called up to play for Spain's national youth team for the 2016 FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup.
On 30 April 2023, they won the second division on the same day as the first team won the first division. On 27 April 2024, the team won the second division title for the second consecutive season after they defeated Athletic Bilbao B 2–0 in the final day of the season.
