PUBLIC SPORTS POLICY: THE IMPACT OF THE ATHLETE … Vol. 4 Issue 1: 5 - 19 PUBLIC SPORTS POLICY: THE IMPACT OF THE ATHLETE SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM ON BRAZILIAN MEN’S ARTISTIC GYMNASTICS Mauricio Santos Oliveira1 & Marco Antonio Coelho Bortoleto2 1Physical Education and Sports School, University of São Paulo, Brazil 2Physical Education Faculty, State University of Campinas, Brazil Original research article Abstract The Brazilian government established the Athlete Scholarship Program, by Law no10.891/2004, aiming to contribute for athletes’ economical support, development and permanence in sports and to renew the Brazilian representation in national and international competitive events. This study intends to present the program and to discuss its impact on Brazilian Men’s Artistic Gymnastics (MAG) according to the opinion of Brazilian experts. A bibliographic review has been used as methodological procedure, followed by a field survey consisting of semi-structured interviews applied to Brazilian representatives, coaches, judges and world-class gymnasts. The results revealed the important role of the Athlete Scholarship Program on the gymnasts support, however other actions are necessary to solve structural and financial problems that still affect this sport in Brazil. We suggest some changes in the program in order to increase the number of scholarships offered, to minimize the bureaucracy application and to make clearer the enrollment rules, the accountability and the selection process.

  • El-Bakkali Ends Kenyan Dominance Carey Shines
    ARAB TIMES, TUESDAY, AUGUST 3, 2021 16 Liu Yang, of China, performs on the rings during the artistic gymnastics men’s apparatus fi nal at the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, Japan. (AP) Sports Latest sports scores at — http://sports.arabtimesonline.com INDONESIA UPSET CHINA FOR DOUBLES GOLD; LOPEZ MAKES HISTORY El-Bakkali ends Kenyan dominance Carey shines TOKYO, Aug 2, (AP): Sou- fi ane el-Bakkali of Morocco ended more than 40 years of Kenyan 3,000-meter stee- plechase Olympic domi- nance. El-Bakkali won in 8 minutes, 8.90 seconds on a wet track at the Olympic Stadium in Tokyo. He fi n- ished well clear of Lamecha Girma of Ethiopia, who took the silver. Benjamin Kigen claimed a bronze for Kenya after Ethiopia’s Getnet Wale, who was third heading to the fi nal straight, fell. Wale struggled back to his feet and clung on for fourth. The 25-year-old el-Bakkali was fourth at the last Olympics in Rio de Ja- neiro and on the podium at the last two world championships, but this was his fi rst major title. Kenya had won nine straight Olym- pic golds in the 3,000 steeplechase since 1980. Kenya’s Conseslus Kipruto, the leading star of the steeplechase, didn’t defend his Olympic title in Tokyo after failing to make the Kenyan team at the national trials. Sifan Hassan of the Netherlands started her bid to win three medals at the Tokyo Games by earning gold in the 5,000 meters. Hassan pulled away with about 250 meters to go and cruised to the win in a time of 14 min- utes, 36.79 sec- onds.
