alunos do Jiu-jitsu da <strong>Beija</strong>-<strong>Flor</strong> <strong>de</strong><br />

<strong>Nilópolis</strong>, após conquista <strong>de</strong> medalhas.<br />

E o trabalho <strong>de</strong>senvolvido pela agremiação <strong>de</strong> <strong>Nilópolis</strong><br />

está oferecendo tantos resultados que a equipe<br />

<strong>de</strong> Jiu-Jitsu da <strong>Beija</strong>-<strong>Flor</strong> <strong>de</strong> <strong>Nilópolis</strong> estará organizando,<br />

neste ano, a primeira edição do Campeonato<br />

Brasileiro <strong>de</strong> Projetos Sociais, com a chancela da<br />

Confe<strong>de</strong>ração Brasileira <strong>de</strong> Jiu-Jitsu e o apoio da<br />

“Petrobras, uma importante parceria”, segundo Elan.<br />

TÊNIS DE MESA<br />

Em seu terceiro ano <strong>de</strong> existência, o curso <strong>de</strong> Tênis<br />

<strong>de</strong> Mesa ajuda cerca <strong>de</strong> 80 crianças a conhecer<br />

melhor um dos esportes mais populares do mundo<br />

em termos <strong>de</strong> número <strong>de</strong> jogadores, mas ainda em<br />

<strong>de</strong>senvolvimento no Brasil. Ministrado pelo presi<strong>de</strong>nte<br />

da confe<strong>de</strong>ração da modalida<strong>de</strong> na região<br />

leste, Pablo Ribeiro, a prática <strong>de</strong>sse esporte contribui<br />

para os jovens terem um raciocínio mais rápido<br />

e maior nível <strong>de</strong> concentração. De acordo com Pablo,<br />

“todos os esportes são importantes meios <strong>de</strong><br />

<strong>de</strong>senvolvimento pessoal e social. Quando um aluno<br />

pratica um esporte com <strong>de</strong>dicação, ele conquista<br />

não apenas qualida<strong>de</strong>s <strong>de</strong>ntro do esporte. Por<br />

isso é que consi<strong>de</strong>ro a prática esportiva essencial<br />

Confe<strong>de</strong>ration, playing the sport helps <strong>de</strong>velop faster reasoning<br />

and better concentration. He goes on to say: “All sports<br />

are important means of personal and social <strong>de</strong>velopment.<br />

When stu<strong>de</strong>nts practice a sport with <strong>de</strong>dication, they gain<br />

more than just the qualities offered by that particular sport.<br />

For this reason, I think playing sports is essential in the<br />

formation of good citizens. And what we do at <strong>Beija</strong>-<strong>Flor</strong><br />

is give young people in the region an important instrument<br />

of in<strong>de</strong>pen<strong>de</strong>nce. When we show a path to youths without<br />

bearings, they latch onto it because they see in sports an<br />

opportunity to build a better life. But not everyone who<br />

comes to us is adrift in life. Many un<strong>de</strong>rstand from a young<br />

age how to take advantage of opportunities, often with the<br />

support of their parents. In table tennis these opportunities<br />

start here at <strong>Beija</strong>-<strong>Flor</strong> and open up wi<strong>de</strong>r paths. This year,<br />

for example, our stu<strong>de</strong>nts will compete in the state championships.<br />

As their visibility increases, so do their chances to<br />

improve their lives. Besi<strong>de</strong>s this, table tennis is an Olympic<br />

sport, so it’s natural that many of these young people dream<br />
