Established in 1899 by Joan Gamper and a group of Swiss, British and Catalan players, the FC Barcelona is more than a football club. Several other sports teams play under the blue and maroon banner, including basketball, roller-hockey, handball and amateur women's basketball and football. Anyone who has watched a Barça team play may have noted something peculiar about their uniforms - the absence of sponsorship advertising. The blue and maroon uniforms bear the Nike swoosh – the company produces their kits – and a small logo for the Catalan television channel TV3. The team colours are considered a symbol of Catalonia, and club officials deem sponsorship logos as interfering with this long-standing tradition.
