More medals for Mengão! Last Saturday (27), the red-black artistic swimming teams competed in the Figures Tournament of the modality, held in the pools of Tijuca Tênis Clube. In total, Mais Querido won five medals, three gold, one silver and one bronze, taking first place in the Children's, Junior Women's and Senior Men's categories.
The three gold medals came in the Children's Level A category, won by Giovana Faria; Junior Women's category, won by Jaddy Portela; and Senior Men's category, won by Renan Alcântara. The silver and bronze medals were won by Giovana Stephan and Lorena Molinos, respectively, in the Senior Women's category.
Now, the red-and-black athletes return to training with a view to participating in the 4th São Paulo Open Artistic Swimming Championship, which will be held from June 28th to 30th at Clube Paineiras do Morumby in São Paulo. It's worth noting that this is the sport's main event in the first half of the year.
The artistic swimming teams of Clube de Regatas do Flamengo rely on resources from their sponsors – Banco Bonsucesso, Furnas, Estácio, LafargeHolcim/Cimento Mauá, EY – 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.
