Rebeca Andrade took first place in the overall rankings of the artistic gymnastics friendly in Beekbergen, Netherlands, tied with Dutchwoman Eythora Thorsdottirm, both with 57.250 points. The competition took place last Saturday (9) and included the home team and athletes from Australia and Sweden. Flamengo and Brazilian National Team coach Keli Kitaura accompanied Rebeca.

After the event, the delegation, which also included Daniele Hypolito, Flávia Saraiva, Jade Barbosa, Julie Kim, and Milena Theodoro, returned to Brazil to continue their preparations. The girls will train at the Cláudio Coutinho gymnasium, located at Flamengo's headquarters in Gávea.

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).
