Associação Nacional de Desporto para Deficientes oversees the national team in Brazil.[1] During the 2000s, the team was one of the top four most dominant teams in the world alongside Russia, Ukraine and Iran.[2] In 2012, the team was coached by Paulo Cruz.[3] In February 2014, a coaching workshop was held in the country to try to further develop the sport. Brazilian and Argentine coaches participated in it.[4]
National team development is supported by an International Federation of Cerebral Palsy Football (IFCPF) recognized national championship. Recognized years for the national IFCPF recognized competition include 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, and 2015.[5]
In 2016, after getting an endorsement by the World AntiDoping Agency (WADA), the IFCPF Anti-Doping Code was formally amended to allow for out of competition testing. This was done through a WADA approved Whereabouts Programme managed through ADAMS. Drawing from players in a Registered Testing Pool, players from this country were included ahead of the 2016 Summer Paralympics in Rio.[6]
