Jader Souza

Samstag, 13. März 1982

Jader José da Silva Souza (born March 13, 1982 in Macapá) is a Brazilian swimmer. He started swimming at age 6, when he asked his mother to enter in a swimming school. Away from the major centers of the national sport, Jader has always struggled to participate in competitions and consequently improve their performance. In 2002, discouraged with the situation in his hometown, dropped everything to pursue a dream in Brasilia. But then he began to reap the rewards of their dedication. After the Olympics, he lost his sponsorship and stopped swimming. However, he returned in 2005.
