Santos FC’s goalball team, in partnership with Lar das Moças Cegas, won the Southeast Regional Championship at the end of July after defeating Instituto Athlon 8–4. Leomon scored all 8 of Santos’ goals and finished the competition as the second-leading scorer, with 43 goals.

Led by head coach Danilo and assistant coach César, the championship-winning team featured the following athletes: Leomon, Ivanilton, Denis, Pedrinho, Rafael, and Bruno.

They are now preparing for the Brazilian Championship, which begins on August 26, and Peixe remains one of the favorites for the title, this time aiming for a fourth championship.

“This title sends us the message that we are on the right path. Our goal is to strengthen the strong points we showed in this championship, continuing our preparation the way we have been doing it, both physically and tactically. We want to stay grounded in the Brazilian Championship and give ourselves in the same way we did in the regional tournament, collectively, placing great value on our defense and working well on our attack. We are going in search of repeating our 2021 achievement, when we were last crowned Brazilian champions,” commented Leomon, the team’s standout player.
