Beyond the results themselves, the tournament once again demonstrated the positive momentum of Teqball in Brazil, as national competitions continue to provide valuable opportunities for athletes to compete, develop and strengthen the local Teqball ecosystem.

 

Fabio Menusso, local organizer of the event, highlighted the positive atmosphere and the importance of continued support for the growth of Teqball in Brazil:

 

“It was a fantastic event with a great atmosphere and very competitive matches throughout the day. We are extremely happy to see the Brazilian Teqball community continuing to grow and develop. I would also like to express my sincere gratitude to our sponsors, UNION E-SPORTS and ITAIPU BINACIONAL, whose support made this event possible.”

 

The 2026 Copa do Brasil de Teqball season will continue with two additional stages later this year. The next tournament will take place in July in São José dos Pinhais, Paraná, while the final and biggest stage of the season is scheduled for September 19-20 in the city of Florianópolis, Santa Catarina.

 

With each edition, Brazilian Teqball continues to build a stronger competitive structure and an increasingly active community, contributing to the sport’s ongoing international growth.
