She switched to Beach Volleyball in July 2001, but returned to the indoor courts in 2003 in a bid to make the Brazilian National team for the Athens 2004 Olympic Games. Leila has ranked among the top indoor players in Brazil. . Known and very admired in Asia, Leila played on the Brazilian National team from 1991 through the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games.
