  • Remo Olímpico
    ORGANIZADORES Abdallah Achour Júnior Antonio Carlos Gomes Marina Bastos Soraya Iida de Carvalho 1ª Edição Rio de Janeiro Comitê Olímpico do Brasil 2019 MENSAGEM DO PRESIDENTE O Comitê Olímpico do Brasil (COB) tem a sociedade esportiva e acadêmica como grande aliada em prol do desenvolvimento do esporte no país. Ao longo dos anos, iniciativas lideradas pelo Instituto Olímpico Brasileiro (IOB) tornaram essa parceria cada vez mais forte. A 1ª edição do Congresso Olímpico Brasileiro é mais um passo nessa direção. O que o COB propõe neste congresso é uma troca de conhecimento, de ideias, de informações. O esporte de alto rendimento, hoje, exige um aperfeiçoamento constante, em todas as áreas da ciência do esporte. Um milésimo de segundo e um pequeno movimento fazem uma enorme diferença e são determinantes para a vitória de um atleta. Por isso, não só queremos compartilhar conhecimentos, mas também aprender com todos que possam contribuir com o esporte brasileiro. O Congresso Olímpico Brasileiro marca a comemoração dos 10 anos do IOB, parte fundamental de nossa instituição. O fato de 79% das medalhas conquistadas pelo Time Brasil nos Jogos Olímpicos Rio 2016 virem justamente de modalidades que receberam grande investimento em capacitação e treinamento do IOB nos deixa muito orgulhosos. Estamos cientes de que este é o caminho certo para o desenvolvimento do esporte olímpico no país. Esperamos que esta edição do Congresso Olímpico Brasileiro seja a primeira de muitas. Troquem ideias, participem, interajam. O COB agradece a presença de todos e torce para que vocês aproveitem ao máximo o nosso evento. Saudações Olímpicas, Paulo Wanderley Presidente do Comitê Olímpico do Brasil 02 2019 | CONGRESSO OLÍMPICO BRASILEIRO CONGRESSO OLÍMPICO BRASILEIRO | 2019 03 CARTA DE BOAS-VINDAS O Comitê Olímpico do Brasil dá as boas-vindas a todos os participantes da 1ª edição do Congresso Olímpico Brasileiro, que tem como tema a Gestão Esportiva de Alto Impacto.

Unsere Elf ist heute mehr als je zuvor in dieser noch jungen Spielzeit gefordert, drei Punkte einzufahren, denn nach einem zufriedenstellenden Saisonstart setzte es zuletzt zwei Niederlagen. War die Leistung im Heimspiel gegen Borussia Dortmund zumindest offensiv über weite Strecken noch recht ansehnlich, können wir mit dem Auftritt der Mannschaft in Bremen überhaupt nicht zufrieden sein. Das war in allen Belangen zu wenig und nicht im Ansatz der VfL Wolfsburg, den wir alle uns wünschen. Heute muss das Team ein anderes Gesicht zeigen, denn es geht nicht nur um Wiedergutmachung vor unseren eigenen Fans, sondern auch darum, wieder schnell in die Erfolgsspur zurückzufinden. Heute können wir nur bestehen, wenn jeder Grün-Weiße, egal ob Spieler, Trainer, Betreuer oder Fan, alles gibt und 90 Minuten Höchstleistungen abruft. Mit dem FSV Mainz 05 kommt eine spielstarke Mannschaft nach Wolfsburg, die uns zuletzt immer wieder das Leben schwer gemacht hat. In den vergangenen drei Partien gelang uns gegen die 05er kein Sieg, es ist also wieder einmal an der Zeit für die Wölfe, drei Punk- te gegen die Rheinland-Pfälzer einzufahren.
