Male volleyball was the hardest to lose, because the br team has won almost all the competitions in the past 8 years or so (and it's said that brazilians "reinvented" volleyball, adding intelligence to a game of strength and height). And female soccer keeps losing in the end, to different teams - like Kiln People, it's a persistent second place, to different winners.
