Next Saturday (15), the Clube de Regatas do Flamengo will be the headquarters of artistic swimming in Rio. The Mais Querido pool will host the II FARJ Figures Tournament, the Aquatic Federation of the State of Rio de Janeiro, and will feature the participation of Flamengo, Fluminense and Guanabara, who will compete in the competition with their teams in the Infantil, Juvenile, Junior and Senior categories of the sport.

Roberta Perillier, the coach of the red-and-black artistic swimming team, commented on the expectations of hosting the second stage of the competition.

"We'll have a very significant turnout; we'll be competing with our entire team, including our students from the Flamengo Sports School in the beginner category. Ultimately, I hope it's a really cool and enjoyable event for the teams coming from abroad, as we're doing everything we can to welcome them in the best possible way. Besides, it's great to compete on home soil," said the Flamengo fan.

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.
