Brazil has two red-and-black representatives at the Artistic Gymnastics World Cup in Osijek, Croatia: gymnast Milena Theodoro, who was reserve in the test event of the sport, when the Brazilian team secured a place for Rio-2016, and the technician Keli Kitaura.

Last Thursday (28), on the first day of qualifying, Milena came in 11th place on the uneven bars, with 12,050 points, and did not qualify for the final, but she performed again on Friday in the balance beam qualifiers and finished in 14th.

The gymnastics teams of Clube de Regatas do Flamengo have support from the Brazilian Club Confederation (CBC) from the decentralization of resources originating from the Pelé Law and with resources from its sponsor – MRS Logística – via the Federal Incentive Law/Ministry of Sport (IR).
