0Just over six thousand Flamengo members will choose the new president for the 2025-2027 three-year period on December 9th. The electoral college will be the smallest since the 2012 election, when Eduardo Bandeira de Mello beat Patrícia Amorim, who was seeking re-election.
The club's first list showed that 6.2 thousand voters are eligible to vote in the Gávea, marking the second consecutive drop in the electoral college since 2018, when Rodolfo Landim defeated Ricardo Lomba, the candidate supported by Bandeira. In that election, 8,061 members were eligible, and the turnout rate was approximately 37%. (The complete numbers are below).
In Landim's reelection, the impact of the pandemic was visible, with a reduction in both the number of voters and participation on election day: 6,898 voters were registered, but only 2,011 attended (29% participation).
The deadline for challenges and changes to the voter list is October 10.
The election, which will define the president for the three-year term 2025/2026/2027, is scheduled for December 9th, a Monday, from 8am to 9pm.
Plates can be registered between September 10th and 30th. A new feature this year is that, for the first time, the plates will be identified by numbers and not by colors. In addition, candidates for the Deliberative and Administration Councils must give express authorization for their registration on the lists.

In a statement sent to members, Flamengo detailed the categories of members who will be able to vote in the election on December 9, 2024. They are:

The sponsorship will yield a fixed R$12 million to the red-black team

0The Deliberative Council of Flamengo voted and approved, this Tuesday, Shopee's new sponsorship. The Singaporean brand will print the sleeves of the shirts of the men's and women's football teams, as well as the basketball team. The sponsorship will yield R$ 12 million fixed to Flamengo. Payment will be made in three installments of R$4 million (February, April and July). There is still a variable value. That's 5% of sales in the Shopee affiliate program.
Thebrand will be on the sleeves of the game, training and warm-up shirt of the men's and women's football teams. In basketball, it is in front of the game, training and warm-up shorts. In terms of comparison, Kwai paid R$10 million for the same space in the 2024 season. The contract with Shopee will be until December 31, 2025.
On the back, Flamengo will not immediately fill the gap left by Mercado Livre. A test will be carried out with the FlaBet exhibition for a period of three months. The idea is to leverage the number of bets and earn more royalties, as you receive 1% of the gross value of bets.
Flamengo reaches four approved sponsorships in 2025
In addition to shopee, Rubro-Negro approved three sponsorships before. The brands involved are Texaco, ABC da Construção and In Drive. In total, Flamengo should receive more than R$20 million. Check the details of each brand:
Texaco: number of the men's first team shirts and a small shield on the training and warm-up shirts of the main team and the under-20 team. Two-year contract, R$4.2 million in the first and R$4.8 in the second, totaling R$9 million.
ABC of Construction: back part of both legs in the shorts of professional teams (men's and women's), men's under-20s and men's professional basketball. One-year contract, with R$5.5 million in cash and R$2 million in exchange (it is worth remembering that the club is building a mini-stadium in Ninho do Urubu), totaling R$7.5 million.
In Drive: microphone at press conferences for the men's team and on the back of the shirt for the women's team. One-year contract for around R$7 million.
