American football growth in Brazil
According to a recent study, Brazil ranked second among the largest NFL markets outside the United States. With an expressive audience, Brazil has become one of the main commercial focuses of the NFL as of this year. Therefore, the BFA can be considered one of the gateways to the North American league in the country.
In addition, a survey carried out by the Federal Government pointed out that American football is in the Top 10 of the most watched and bet sports in Brazil. Such interest from the audience was one of the factors that caught the attention of Rivalo, which is also willing to collaborate with the process of expanding the sport in the country.
It should be noted that since 2019, women’s football has been part of the BFA. The Brasil Bowl Feminino was broadcast on ESPN, showing the strength of the sport in the country. This year, the competition will have the same dispute model and more participating teams. The decision, once again, will be shown on ESPN channels.
For Eduardo Ferreira, commercial director of BFA, the partnership with Rivalo is a reason for satisfaction for American Football in Brazil.
“Having Rivalo as an official partner of the BFA is something really unprecedented in Brazil. Being alongside a company that is a world reference in betting, puts us on a much higher level, giving credibility to our League”, he said.
The sports bookmaker’s pioneering spirit was also highlighted by the director:
“Rivalo will provide growth, professionalism and innovation to Brazilian football, becoming a pioneer in this modality. The trust that Rivalo places in BFA will certainly be a link of relevance, gratitude and reciprocity”, he added.
