The champion is back!

The Inspiradoras are back on the pitch! On Friday, July 25, at Benfica Campus, Sport Lisboa e Benfica's women's football team held their first training session of the 2025/26 preseason. This was also the first time that Ivan Baptista, the new coach of the five-time national champions, led a training session as coach of the Eagles. Notably, the integration of several young players from the B team into the senior squad was particularly noteworthy.

Barrenechea and Richard Ríos, players from Sport Lisboa e Benfica's professional football team, took part in the official photo shoot for the 2025/26 season on Friday, July 25, at Benfica Campus. See images of the moment.

It was with a thrilling  3-4 victory over Sporting in Game 5 of the Liga Placard play-off final that Benfica won back the competition on Sunday, June 29, at the João Rocha Pavilion - after also winning Game 1 (4-4; 3-4 ap) and Game 4 (7-5 aet) of the competition. Take a look at the best images from the glorious night when the 9th National Championship was lifted. And the champions were welcomed in an atmosphere of enormous celebration at the Pavilhão Fidelidade...

More than a victory (0-2) was celebrated at the Pavuilhão do HC Turquel: an era was celebrated. Benfica won their twelfth women's roller hockey championship with the class and confidence of those who know the way. That's 12 consecutive national titles confirming the hegemony of a team that plays with heart and soul. A generation that is already a legend!
