note
Sidão became known as a wall during
the Super League 2005/06, when he
was a champion for Cimed and,
consequently, won a trophy for best
blocker. Afterwards, he was called for
the adult national team for the first
time and later went to Italy where he
played for three years. He began
training volleyball at school in Taubaté
and, at 14, he outstood in trials for the
Banespa team among two thousand
candidates. He enjoys playing
videogames on his free time, especially
football games. His musical taste is
eclectic going from rock to “pagode”.
