A BBC crew followed Simon to Brazil in 1996 on his journey to discover the roots and history of the game of Futebol de Salão. Simon spent 3 months in Brazil meeting with many of the past greats of Brazilian football. Simon spent time learning from legends such as Zico, Rivelino and Careca as well as studying for his Brazilian Coaching Badges. Whilst in Brazil, Simon met with many officials and administrators of the game including staff at CEPEUSP, Sao Paulo, Botofogo, Palmeiras and Flamengo football clubs. The programme was screened by the BBC initially in early 1997 and has been re-screened several times since.
