Brazil is known as
Soccer Kingdom
The reasons for this are as follows:
The reason is that Brazil is a strong soccer player and has never missed a World Cup tournament, and has won the most World Cups in the history of the country. Secondly, Brazilians love soccer, from the path next to the house to the big stadium, you can see people playing soccer everywhere. Therefore, Brazil is universally recognized and deservedly called the "Kingdom of Football".
Brazil also produces soccer stars, has a perfect soccer legal system and talent training mechanism, and has formed a large-scale soccer sports culture industry. Famous players include Pele, Garrincha, Carreca, Socrates, Falcao, Zico, Dunga and so on.
Brazil's well-developed soccer legal system and talent training mechanisms
Soccer has been integrated into the lives of Brazilians in all aspects, and has become a national brand and cultural symbol of Brazil. Brazil has sound soccer laws, a national soccer league, several soccer club teams in each state and city, and a large-scale soccer-related cultural industry. In addition, Brazil also has an advanced mechanism for discovering and cultivating soccer talents.
Brazilian soccer schools are located all over the country, focusing on training 12-13 year olds, with excellent coaches instilling them with advanced soccer concepts and basic skills; Brazilian soccer clubs all over the country employ a group of experienced and keen scouts, who are always "active" in the various soccer schools and competition venues, to discover outstanding talents in a timely manner.
Soccer is a staple of Brazilian cultural life. For Brazilians, soccer is a sport, but it is also a culture. Whenever the league or major domestic and international matches are played, Brazilians often go to the game with their families, and the whole city is full of people, while the stadium is crowded. Almost everyone in Brazil is a fan, and Brazilians laughingly say that "a person who does not know soccer and does not understand soccer will not be able to become the President of Brazil, and will not get a high approval rate". Brazilians believe that Brazilian soccer is rightfully among the world's cultural heritage. Brazilians call soccer "the sport of the masses," and it is played on beaches and in the streets of cities. Even in the favelas, children from poor families play with bare feet and socks stuffed with paper. Many of Brazil's internationally recognized soccer players began their careers here.
Brazil has about 22,000 national soccer players and has two competitions, the National League and the Brazilian Cup. Brazil's soccer talent is abundant, with a steady stream of outstanding players, thanks to its system of discovering and cultivating talents. Brazilian soccer schools are located all over the country, focusing on training children aged 12-13, and excellent coaches instill in them advanced soccer concepts and basic skills. Each Brazilian club employs a group of experienced scouts with a keen sense of smell, who are always "active" in the soccer schools and competition venues, and will inform the clubs of the outstanding talents they have found in time. The clubs decide whether or not to select them after medical examinations, tests and field observations.
The Brazilian national team selects its players not only on the basis of the athletes' skills, but also on the basis of their discipline, team spirit and good character. In order to gain the support of the audience in Brazil, and to stand firmly in the club, an athlete must first have a sense of love for soccer and the audience, and must go all out in every game, playing his own level and style of play, so that the fans who buy tickets to watch the game can get the spiritual enjoyment and satisfaction.
Brazil is a developing country and the standard of living of the people is medium, which determines that the income of the players is also limited. The average salary of a player playing in a first division team in Brazil now is about R$3,000 per month (about US$1,000). Players' salaries are confidential, and there is a large gap between each other, with players just starting out earning only R$1,000 a month, while big-name stars earn about R$30,000 a month, a difference of about 10 times. Regardless of how much money they get, the players train hard, study hard to improve their skills, and never let up. Because they know that if they play well, their salary will naturally go up without them having to fight for it. The team practiced a walking training system, and the players were disciplined to work and rest on time, even the big names. The star Romario, known as the "lone wolf", has been abandoned by the national team in recent years because of his strong personality and poor discipline, despite his top-notch skills.
Brazil is recognized worldwide as a soccer kingdom. The splendor of soccer and the proper functioning of the league relies mainly on the law. Brazilian soccer was professionalized in 1933. At present, the direct leading organization in the management of soccer in Brazil is the Brazilian National Football Confederation (CBF). In addition, there are local soccer associations in each state and city, and the CBF is responsible for the management of the Brazilian national soccer league and national teams at all levels, while the local soccer associations are responsible for the management of the local level leagues. Although the Brazilian Ministry of Sports has the right to guide and advise the CBF, the actual power in the field of soccer is in the hands of the CBF. Brazilian soccer clubs are now taking the path of marketization, transforming into "corporate clubs". Normally, clubs have the right to make decisions on matters such as player management, ticket sales, and finding sponsorships, while they need to negotiate with football associations at all levels on television broadcasts and scheduling of matches. Clubs that own their own stadiums also have the right to manage them. Brazil has a Court of Arbitration for Sports at all levels, which is responsible for making judicial or administrative decisions on various issues and disputes arising in professional leagues. The Court of Arbitration is composed of five senior judges and is legally serious, independent and authoritative.
Over the past 70 years of professionalization, there have been problems in the management of Brazilian domestic soccer, with the main conflicts manifesting themselves in the unregulated marketization of clubs, the thick bureaucracy of football associations at all levels, and the uneasy relationship between the government, clubs and football associations. In addition to a few big-name clubs, most Brazilian clubs are unable to make ends meet, players' wages are low, club facilities are outdated, and a large number of outstanding players have left the country. However, Mr. Niton, Assistant Minister of Sports of Brazil, told reporters that these problems in the development of soccer are gradually being solved under the leadership and supervision of the Ministry of Sports. Hopefully, it will be adopted.
Well, that's the end of the article, I hope this helps.
