On Tuesday, October 17, a tragic car accident occurred on the BR-282 highway in Rancho Queimado, Santa Catarina, resulting in the deaths of three members of the same family. They were identified as Jislaine Scheidt, 35, her son Vitor Matheus, 14, and her daughter Lorena Vigo, 8. The family was traveling in a Volkswagen Amarok that collided head-on with a truck at kilometer 65 of the highway. The driver of the vehicle is currently hospitalized in serious condition, raising concerns over road safety in the region.

The three victims were deeply embedded in their community of Lagoa Vermelha, a small town in the northern region of Rio Grande do Sul with a population of about 27,600. Jislaine was notably involved in local volleyball projects, while her daughter Lorena was the daughter of the president of Lagoa Futsal, Edeivison Vigo, and Vitor participated in the youth categories of the same futsal team. Their active participation in community sports highlights the significant impact of their loss on local sports and community activities.

In response to this heartbreaking incident, Lagoa Futsal extended condolences to the victims' family and announced their withdrawal from the Copa Santo Ângelo de Futsal as a sign of mourning. This terrible accident not only leaves a void in the grieving family but also in the local community that relied on their contributions and engagement in sports.
