A new competition begins for Sesc RJ Flamengo this Wednesday (27.03). Leader of the qualifying phase of the Women's Super League, coach Bernardinho's team faces Barueri, at 6:30 pm, away from home, in the first match of the best-of-three quarter-final series. SporTV2 broadcasts live.


The red and black team knows the dangers of their opponent, who gave them trouble in the quarterfinals of the Copa Brasil and in the first round of the Superliga. Therefore, they want to impose an aggressive pace to return to Rio de Janeiro with the advantage in the confrontation.


"It will be a difficult game, because Barueri will play without any responsibility and that is a reason to be very alert. It's a very well-trained team, tall and that plays with a lot of speed, when they have the pass in their hands. We have to impose our serve and put pressure on them in our counterattack. We know that the responsibility is all ours. We fought hard to finish the qualifying phase first and we can't go in with our guard down, especially at their home", analyzed central Valquíria, the third best striker in the Superliga, with 54% efficiency.


The player celebrates her return the consistency of Sesc RJ Flamengo, which comes from four consecutive victories in the competition and arrives with morale in search of another positive result. She remembers that the difference lies in the strength of the team.

"We went through a moment of instability, but we rolled up our sleeves. Teamwork prevails here. We came together and came out more united after two consecutive defeats, for Osasco and Praia Clube, and we adjusted what was necessary. As a result, we played a great game against Minas and achieved a good run to finish the first phase well and start the playoffs", added Valquíria.


The second match of the quarterfinals between Sesc RJ Flamengo and Barueri will be played on Saturday (30.03), at 7pm, at Tijuca Tênis Clube. If necessary, game 3 will take place on April 3, at 6 pm, at Maracanãzinho.

Sesc RJ Flamengo is the biggest champion of the Women's Superliga, with 12 cups. Under Bernardinho's command, the team reached the top of the podium in the national competition in the 1997/1998 and 1999/2000 seasons (both in Curitiba), 2005/2006, 2006/2007, 2007/2008, 2008/2009, 2010/2011 , 2012/2013, 2013/2014, 2014/2015, 2015/2016 and 2016/2017 (in Rio de Janeiro).

Flamengo will be present at the Brazilian Artistic Gymnastics Trophy , which will take place between May 9th and 11th, in Brasília. The competition, one of the main ones on the national calendar, will be contested using apparatus and will serve as an important preparation stage for two of the main promises of the red-black women's team: Júlia Coutinho and Gabriela Bouças.


PREPARATION


The two gymnasts were called up to represent Brazil in the next stage of the World Cup, and the Brazil Trophy will be essential for them to gain rhythm and confidence before the international challenge . “We will focus on the preparation of Júlia Coutinho and Gabriela Bouças, who were called up for the World Cup. This competition will serve as preparation for them, since it will be the first time they will compete in an international event of this level,” explained Georgette Vidor, technical coordinator of Flamengo’s women’s artistic gymnastics team.


In addition to Júlia and Gabriela, Flamengo will have two more representatives in the adult category: Helen and Maria Eduardo Montesino , who are looking to reach the finals on the apparatus and win individual medals. However, the Club will not be at full strength in the competition. “We are going with only four adult athletes. Our Olympic gymnasts will not participate, and Larissa, who is also in the adult category, was injured. That is why we decided not to take the athletes from the youth category,” said Georgette.

TECHNICAL COMMITTEE ALREADY HAS A PLAN


The coaching staff's strategy also takes into account the season's objectives . “Although many clubs treat the Trophy as a priority competition, for us at Flamengo the main focus continues to be the Brazilian Championships by categories. Even so, we want to defend our team titles and seek individual victories”, he highlighted.

The event will have an intense schedule: official training on Thursday (9), qualifying on Friday (10), finalists' training on Saturday (11) and finals on Sunday (12). Gabriela Bouças will compete on the uneven bars and beam in the Trophy and, depending on her performance, may also expand her participation to the floor exercise in the World Cup. Júlia Coutinho has confirmed her participation on the floor exercise and is looking to put on a solid performance.

“This Trophy is a good opportunity for athletes who need more experience in competitions. We will participate to honor the event, although we are not at full strength. This is different from last year, when the competition was in Rio and we took all the athletes, including the Olympic athletes — Lorrane, Jade, Flávia and Rebeca. This year, the context is different. We will be leaner, but with the same spirit of representing the Club well and supporting our gymnasts during this time of preparation ,” concluded Georgette.

The Brazilian Volleyball Confederation confirmed on Monday (28) the call-up of two new athletes to join the Women's National Team training group. The middle blockers Julia Kudiess, from Gerdau Minas, and Diana Duarte, who plays for Türk Hava Yolları, were selected by coach Zé Roberto Guimarães as part of the preparation for the 2025 Nations League. The team's debut will take place on June 4, at Maracanãzinho, against the Czech Republic.


With a history of participation in the national team, Julia Kudiess returns after a long period away due to injury . The center ruptured the anterior cruciate ligament in her right knee in May 2024, during a match against Serbia in the previous edition of the Nations League. After nine months of recovery, she returned to the courts in January and played a relevant role in Minas' campaign in the Superliga , being one of the key players until the team's elimination in the semifinals.


DIANA RECEIVES NEW OPPORTUNITY


Diana, who currently plays in the Turkish league, was also called up for the national team's training. Despite a season with few games for the European club, the center was present in the team's bronze medal win at the Paris Olympic Games , a factor that contributed to her new call-up. The athlete's international experience will be essential to strengthen the national team's defensive system.

WOMEN'S TEAM INCLUDES FLAMENGO PLAYERS


The preliminary list announced by the CBV includes names from different clubs in Brazil and abroad. In addition to the central players called up, the group also includes opposites Jheovanna and Tainara, outside hitter Helena and central players Lorena and Luzia. Libero Laís, from Sesc Flamengo , completes the team so far. The final list will be released after the end of the Superliga and other international competitions.

OPENING MATCH AT MARACANÃZINHO

The National Team's debut in the Nations League will be in front of the Rio de Janeiro crowd, at Maracanãzinho , a traditional venue for Brazilian volleyball. With athletes in the recovery phase and others with Olympic experience, the team will look to start the campaign well. Among the highlights called up are names from Sesc Flamengo, which once again has a significant presence in the composition of the Women's National Team.
