[:es]Los Juegos Universitarios Brasileños (JUBs) se celebraron con total éxito en Maringá, conocida turísticamente como la “Ciudad Canción” por su gran Festival de Música, con la participación de más de 3.300 personas. El evento, entre los días 4 y 11 de noviembre, ocupó 18 hoteles al 100 por ciento, y generó un movimiento económico de alrededor de los 10 millones de reales (2.6 millones de dólares).

Además de este impacto, los JUBs también promovieron el nombre de Maringá para un público estimado en 30 millones de personas. Esto porque, además de conquistar una gran cobertura espontánea de los medios de comunicación, la CBDU realizó cuatro streamings simultáneos, diariamente, por Facebook. Las transmisiones sumaron 13 millones de espectadores.

Para el presidente de la Confederación Brasileña de Deporte Universitario (CBDU), Luciano Cabral, Maringá cumplió con todas las exigencias del evento y, además de conquistar el respeto de las entidades deportivas universitarias, ganó el cariño de los participantes de los JUB. “Esa 66ª edición entra a la historia de la CBDU como una de las mejor organizadas y evaluadas por las federaciones de los 27 Estados”, subraya.

“Maringá tiene una estructura deportiva superior a la existente en muchas capitales brasileñas, un trazado urbano que facilitó el traslado de los atletas y, sobre todo, equipos de los sectores público y privado que se empeñan en hacer lo mejor todo el tiempo. Un honor estar aquí y, a partir de aquí, por un año más, concientizar a nuestro país de que la Educación y el deporte de alto rendimiento son absolutamente conciliables. Brasil será bien representado en las competiciones olímpicas.

En total, 15 modalidades fueron disputadas en los JUBs, entre ellos juegos electrónicos y académicos, y la inclusión del skate teniendo en cuenta que el deporte entró en el programa olímpico y se disputará en Tokio en 2020.
