Avaí Futebol Clube, or as we prefer to be called, Leão da Ilha (Lion of the Island), is a professional association football club based in Florianópolis in Santa Catarina, Brazil, established in 1923. We play our Campeonato Brasileiro Série B and Campeonato Catarinense home games proudly wearing the blue and white at the Estádio da Ressacada. Avaí FC won the most Santa Catarina State Championship titles 16 times, which makes us the all-time record state champions. But our goals are higher - an upgrade to the 2009 season: playing in Copa Libertadores!
We plan to build upon this tradition with a clear goal in mind: to return to the Campeonato Brasileiro Série A! Join us in achieving this ambitious plan by participating in the AVAI Token Crowdsale. Let’s go back to the Série A together!
We are announcing a major partnership with SportyCo and Blackbridge Sports: The first Initial Coin Offering (ICO) in the history of football. Fans all over the world will be able to invest in Avaí FC vision and journey. Avaí FC will run a crowdsale campaign with the single goal of combating the financial hurdles, and aiming to become a financially stable and permanent member of Campeonato Brasileiro Série A with the goal to enter the Copa Libertadores.This deal sees Avaí FC become the first team in world football to officially launch a cryptocurrency, bridging the divide between the new blockchain-based industry and sports.
