Well... the government doesn't invest in sports so the rich sports (that need infrastructure) is almost reserved to less than 10% of the population.
Eg. I like tennis but I have to pay a lot to reserve a court 1-2 hours per week... there are no public (free) tennis court here.
That's why football (soccer) is so popular here... because it's cheap to play... you play in anywhere (streets) with any kind of ball (even paper)... there are a lot of public football field free for all.
Another exemple... the Cielo (swimmer) don't train in Brazil... he lives and trains in the US due the poor infrastructure here.
We need greater incentives for sports other than football.
