Brazil has a proud history and tradition at the top level of the game and this partnership will help accentuate the commercial growth of the sport in São Paulo and beyond.”

Enyo Correia, President of Paulista Basketball Federation said “The partnership with Synergy Sports is very important to us due to all the benefits it brings to our competitions from the youth tournaments to our main professional championship. The technology provided by Synergy Sports is a key factor for the development of Paulista basketball and the development of our future players.”

This partnership marks an expansion of Synergy Sports’ existing growth in Brazil, with the company’s announcement earlier this year that it had partnered with the Brasileirão.
