🤝 Leipzig and Bragantino reopen pitch for social projects in Brazil | OneFootball

RB Leipzig and Red Bull Bragantino reopened a football court last week, dedicated to the local community in Bragança Paulista.

The renovation of the space was announced in May, during the German club’s tour of São Paulo, which included a friendly match against Santos in Bragança Paulista.

Six months later, the work at the site was completed, and the court will be used for social projects aimed at children and young people in the region.

The CEOs of RB Leipzig and Red Bull Bragantino attended the reopening event in the interior of São Paulo, which also included the presence of 50 children.

“We want to have a lasting impact in this area. We are excited to make another small contribution to this country that is passionate about football,” emphasized Johann Plenge, CEO of RB Leipzig.

The renovation of the court included replacing the flooring, as well as installing new goalposts and nets.

“Our fantastic partnership with RB Leipzig reflects what we believe as a club: using football and sport as a tool for social change and to help in the development of the community,” pointed out André Rocha, CEO of Red Bull Bragantino.
