Founded in 2018 by volleyball coach Alexandre Seixas, the organization focuses on social inclusion through sports. The expansion follows data from the 2025 ‘PIB do Esporte’ study, which indicates that the national sports productive chain in Brazil generates approximately R$ 183.4 billion annually, representing 1.69% of the country's GDP.
