Wikipedia

  1. Torcida organizada

    Torcidas organizadas (Portuguese pronunciation: [toɾ'sidɐs oɾgɐ̃ni'zadɐs]) are formal (or informal) associations of football fans in Brazil in the same vein as barras bravas in the rest of Latin America, hooligan firms in United Kingdom and ultras in the rest of Europe, Asia, Australia and North Africa. The name is based on the Portuguese verb torcer, which means "to wring" or "to twist"; the definition shifted to "to root for" after wringing scarfs became an emotional outlet for female Brazilian spectators attending football matches in the 1930s. The rationale for the fans' behavior is that it can help the team gather strength to beat the opponent. Due the hooliganism and violence associated with the Torcidas organizadas, the Brazilian government created the Estatuto do Torcedor, a law which regulates the Torcidas organizadas, giving them rights and duties.

  1. Torcida organizada

    Torcidas organizadas are formal associations of football fans in Brazil in the same vein as Americas Barra brava and European ultras. The name is based on the verb torcer, which means "to root for" but also "to wring" and "to turn". The supposition is that the behaviour of the fans present at the stadium could help the team gather strength to beat the opponent. In the beginning, and until the 1960s, torcidas organizadas were informal associations of fans who gathered to buy fireworks, cloth for large flags, and other stuff to be used during celebrations. Later, such associations became permanent and were formalised legally as non-profit recreational associations, still with the primary goal of providing a better spectacle at the stadium and surroundings. Some of the noteworthy torcidas organizadas from this time were Torcida Jovem Fla and Raça Rubro-Negra, Gaviões da Fiel, Torcida Independente and Dragões da Real, Mancha Verde, Força Jovem Vasco, Máfia Azul, Galoucura, Torcida Jovem do Santos
