The Torcida Jovem (Portuguese pronunciation: [toʁˈsidɐ ˈʒɔvẽ]) are a torcida organizada, or supporters' group, for Santos Futebol Clube, a Brazilian professional football club based in Santos, Brazil.[2] Founded in 1969 by a group of fans from São Paulo, the group set out to make it a goal in attending every match that the club played in the capital of São Paulo.[3] With over 30,000 members, it is one of the largest supporting groups in Brazil.[4] The current president is Marcos Gordinho.[1]

History

During the late 1960s when Santos' fan base did not extend beyond the limits of the city of Santos, a group of men made a point to attend every game the team played in São Paulo.[3] After a few matches, the group began to arrange together trips to any state venue to popularize the idea o support the club, and negate the provocations of other rival fans.[3] The habit of attending the club's matches en masse became so common that in 1969 they decided to give birth to a uniformed, official supporters group that attended every game the team disputes.[3] Thirteen individuals were the driving force behind the creation of Torcida Jovem, with Cosmo Damiano, German, toboggan, Menezes, Celso Jatene and Ze Miguel being the principal de-facto leaders.[3] On September 26, 1969, when the club returned from another successful tour, unbeaten in a series of seven matches in Europe, the group gathered in an old house in the traditional bairro of Brás in São Paulo.[3] It was decided to name the group Torcida Jovem since the founders were no older than 21 years of age. Cosmo's house became the first official seat of the first organized supporters group for Santos.[3] The firm's first witness of the club's success came on November 19 of that same year in Rio de Janeiro.[3] In a match against Vasco da Gama, Pelé, named the "Athlete of the Century" by the International Olympic Committee,[5] and widely regarded among football historians, former players and fans to be one of the best and most accomplished footballers in the game's history.[6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] scored his 1,000th goal in the Maracanã. The following year, the Torcida Jovem made themselves present during Brazil's victorious campaign during the 1970 FIFA World Cup.[16][17][18][19][3]
