Corinthians players plan visit to centre for the visually impaired | OneFootball

On the afternoon of next Thursday (6), at 2 p.m. (Brasília time), the athletes of Corinthians’ women’s team will take part in an initiative connected to social inclusion through sport. They will visit Laramara (Brazilian Association for Assistance to People with Visual Impairments), where they will participate in an activity with children, teenagers, and adults supported by the institution.

The initiative aims to promote integration between the Brabas and Laramara’s members, highlighting sport as a tool for inclusion, social transformation, and coexistence. The visit also represents a continuation of the partnership between Corinthians and the institution. Previously, people assisted by the organization were able to tour Timão’s training center and closely follow the women’s team’s daily routine.

During the visit to the institution, the players from the club in Parque São Jorge will take part in a discussion circle with the members, where they will talk about their experiences in women’s football and in their careers in general. Afterwards, they will take part in a practical activity with a bell ball, equipment used in football by people with visual impairments, encouraging the inclusion of the participants.

In material sent to Meu Timão, Silverley Silvestre, Laramara’s orientation and mobility teacher, emphasized the importance of the joint initiative with the Corinthians players: “Welcoming the Brabas to Laramara represents another step in building a partnership that values inclusion and diversity. We believe that meetings like this strengthen bonds and show how sport can transform realities,” he said.

During July of this year, Corinthians welcomed the project’s children to Parque São Jorge for a visit to the club’s social headquarters. On that occasion, the activity was organized to ensure accessibility for those present, promoting a detailed description of the spaces, with adapted routes and multisensory experiences.
