Last week, from Wednesday (10) to Saturday (13), the NBA Americas Team Camp took place at the National Center for the Development of Sports Talent and High Performance, in Mexico City. Among those selected as the 40 best young players born between 1999 and 2000 from Argentina, Brazil, Canada and Mexico was the red-black Kayo Gonçalves, who was trained by Flamengo's under-15 coach, Fernando Pereira, Fernandinho, invited to command the Brazilian team.
"It was five wonderful days with these sensational athletes. They behaved worthy of great people, always with great responsibility and commitment. They trained with great attention, discipline, and intensity. They played with great commitment and always as a team. Now it's time for them to return to their clubs and continue working hard, as they will certainly have a bright future on and off the court. I'm incredibly proud to work with each of them," Fernandinho declared on his social media.
The coach was undefeated Rio de Janeiro champion with the under-17s in 2015 and this year took over the under-15s. Kayo Gonçalves is one of the standouts of the under-17 team, a pivot, and already measures 2,01'XNUMX".
The youth basketball teams of Clube de Regatas do Flamengo rely on resources from their sponsors – CSN (Companhia Siderúrgica Nacional), Banco Bonsucesso and Brasil Brokers – via the Federal Incentive Law/Ministry of Sports (IR), in addition to support from the Brazilian Confederation of Clubs (CBC) resulting from the decentralization of resources originating from the Pelé Law.
