Futsal: The Brava team already has two pieces of equipment donated by Brava natives living in the USA

This information was advanced by coach Maria Martins, noting that these materials were delivered by the councilor responsible for Sports, but that they were sent by Sarita da Rosa, daughter of a father from Brave, resident in the United States of America and another from Brave, Ernesto Lopez.
