The world boccia rankings changed after the competition held in Montreal, and FC Porto’s athletes once again stood out among the sport’s international elite.
In the BC2 class, David Araújo dropped one place in the world rankings and now sits in 7th position. The FC Porto athlete did not take part in the event held in Canada, but in June, in Astana, he will already have a new opportunity to return to the top places in the standings.
In BC3, Diogo Castro continues to show signs of his international progress. After finishing 4th in Montreal, the blue-and-white athlete rose to 6th place in the world rankings, moving even closer to the leaders.
The biggest highlight, however, belongs to Carla Oliveira. The two-time European champion in the BC4 class, who is still celebrating her recent World Cup victory in Montreal, Canada, climbed to first place in the world rankings, officially becoming the world number one in her class.
This is a historic achievement, reinforcing the FC Porto athlete’s status as one of the sport’s leading international figures and placing her among the top favourites for the World Championship, scheduled for August in South Korea.
