Flamengo Women’s Football Faces a Period of Instability


One day after the exposure of the lack of quality in the women’s football structure at Flamengo, a group of fans decided they will bring improvement proposals to the club’s board. This is because images circulating on social media show unhealthy conditions in the environment.

The goal is for the women’s team to have a more solid space, just like the men’s team. Initially, we created a WhatsApp group, but today we work by connecting people who produce content and developing strategic proposals, said a member of the “Meninas da Gávea em Pauta” initiative, who wished to remain anonymous.

Thus, the representative made the statement to the Lance website and explained that the project currently has about 150 fans from different parts of Brazil. The group was born from the perception of gaps in the team’s management.

What Are the Issues in Flamengo Women’s Football?

Among these gaps is the lack of a complete calendar for youth categories, infrastructure limitations at Gávea, and difficulties for fans to access matches. Supporters also complain about the superficial communication from the women’s football department.

— The departure of Rosana (coach) showed that the club needs more structure and planning. We want to present practical solutions, not just criticize, said the anonymous Flamengo supporter, adding that:

— We are structuring a detailed document, with short, medium, and long-term measures, which will be presented to Flamengo and the women’s caucus (of the board) to formalize the demands and suggest improvements, he highlighted.

What Are the Campaign’s Measures?

Among the proposals and demands for Flamengo women’s football, the group wants:

  • Fan engagement campaigns, with collaborative actions involving both male and female athletes;
  • Solidarity PIX to raise funds for Flamengo women’s football;
  • Creation of a B team to provide a continuous calendar for youth categories and avoid the dispersion of talent;
  • Development of a strategic plan, including finances, performance analysis of athletes and professionals, and policies for talent development and recruitment;
  • Improvement of Gávea’s infrastructure, including bleachers and adequate spaces for training and matches.
