BFA TIPS BY RIVALO (March to December)

Weekly on the BFA Youtube channel, the presenter will receive guests from all teams to analyze the week’s games, and act as ‘Tipsters’, giving betting tips at Rivalo. The intention is to approach other sports with odds on Rivalo’s own platform. Each guest (Tipster) will promote their respective team’s ‘RIVALO BOWL’ campaign.

American football growth in Brazil

According to a recent study, Brazil ranked second among the largest NFL markets outside the United States. With an expressive audience, Brazil has become one of the main commercial focuses of the NFL as of this year. Therefore, the BFA can be considered one of the gateways to the North American league in the country.

In addition, a survey carried out by the Federal Government pointed out that American football is in the Top 10 of the most watched and bet sports in Brazil. Such interest from the audience was one of the factors that caught the attention of Rivalo, which is also willing to collaborate with the process of expanding the sport in the country.

It should be noted that since 2019, women’s football has been part of the BFA. The Brasil Bowl Feminino was broadcast on ESPN, showing the strength of the sport in the country. This year, the competition will have the same dispute model and more participating teams. The decision, once again, will be shown on ESPN channels.

For Eduardo Ferreira, commercial director of BFA, the partnership with Rivalo is a reason for satisfaction for American Football in Brazil.

“Having Rivalo as an official partner of the BFA is something really unprecedented in Brazil. Being alongside a company that is a world reference in betting, puts us on a much higher level, giving credibility to our League”, he said.

The sports bookmaker’s pioneering spirit was also highlighted by the director:

“Rivalo will provide growth, professionalism and innovation to Brazilian football, becoming a pioneer in this modality. The trust that Rivalo places in BFA will certainly be a link of relevance, gratitude and reciprocity”, he added.

Arizona Department of Gaming and Arizona Lottery Announce Proclamation Recognizing September 2025 as Responsible Gaming Education Month

Published

on

January Sports Betting Figures

 

State agencies join forces to raise awareness, promote prevention, and provide tools for safe and responsible play.

The Arizona Department of Gaming (ADG) and the Arizona Lottery are proud to announce a joint effort in support of a new Proclamation recognizing September 2025 as Responsible Gaming Education Month in Arizona.

Responsible gaming is about ensuring that individuals who choose to play have the tools, resources, and knowledge they need to make informed decisions and enjoy gaming as a form of entertainment. While problem gambling initiatives focus on helping those already experiencing harm from gambling, responsible gaming emphasizes prevention by encouraging healthy play behaviors before they reach a critical point.

Throughout September, and continuing in the months ahead, the ADG and Arizona Lottery will work together to strengthen education and awareness initiatives. The goal is to equip players with strategies and resources that help them keep gaming fun and safe, while helping reduce the risks associated with problem gambling.

“For over 30 years, the Arizona Department of Gaming has safeguarded the integrity of gaming through strong consumer protections, enforcement against illegal operators, and support services for those impacted by problem gambling,” said Jackie Johnson, Arizona Department of Gaming Agency Director. “During Responsible Gaming Education Month, we remind everyone that part of playing responsibly is being informed—always double-check before you place your bet to ensure you are using a legal, regulated operator at gaming.az.gov/checkyourbet.”

The Arizona Lottery also remains steadfast in its commitment to responsible play and has a Level 2 certification with the World Lottery Association for responsible gaming. Lottery games benefit the people of Arizona by generating critical revenue that funds education, healthcare, environmental conservation, and economic development. At the same time, the Lottery prioritizes the well-being of its players. Each ticket includes clear odds of winning, vending machines display game odds, and the 1-800-NEXT-STEP helpline is featured across Lottery products and advertising.

“We are proud to deliver entertainment that benefits communities across our state, while recognizing our responsibility to promote safe play,” said Alec Thomson, Arizona Lottery Executive Director. “Through transparency and awareness, we want every player to have the tools they need to make informed decisions and enjoy the Lottery responsibly.”

As Arizona observes Responsible Gaming Education Month, ADG and the Arizona Lottery encourage all players to stay informed, know their limits, and seek help if needed. Together, we can ensure that gaming remains a source of entertainment that strengthens, rather than harms, Arizona communities.

For more information and resources, visit gaming.az.gov/ResponsibleGaming or ArizonaLottery.com/ResponsibleGaming. If you or someone you know may be struggling with problem gambling, call or text 1-800-NEXT-STEP for confidential support available 24/7.
