Besaid Aurochs
From Final Fantasy Wiki
The Besaid Aurochs are a blitzball team in Final Fantasy X that represent the island of Besaid. They were largely considered the worst team in Spira, and were mostly concerned with doing their best as opposed to winning.
When Tidus, a champion blitzer in Zanarkand, was transported to modern-day Spira, he joined the Aurochs and led them to the tournament finals against the best team in the league, the Luca Goers. It is not canonically known if the Aurochs won or lost that game, as that is decided by the player via winning or losing against the Goers during the tournament final in Luca. No matter the end result however, it doesn't effect the overall story of the game very much at all.
