Jady Martins Malavazzi (born 7 September 1994) is a Brazilian para-cyclist. She has represented Brazil in competitions such as the 2011 Parapan American Games, and the 2016, 2020, 2024 Paralympic Games, as well as the Paracycling World Cup among other national and international competitions.

Background

[edit]

Malavazzi is from Jandaia do Sul in Paraná.[1] She became paraplegic at the age of 12 after suffering a serious car accident in 2007. She began her recovery by playing wheelchair basketball and swimming. The Paraná native practiced both sports for two years, until she decided to take up paracycling in 2010.[2]

Career

[edit]

The following year, Malavazzi competed in the 2011 Parapan American Games in Guadalajara, Mexico, and won the silver medal in the 30-kilometre road race, which she completed in 1 hour and 19 minutes. Her hometown did not have good conditions for her to practice her sport, so her family moved to Brasília.[2]

In the 2nd stage of the 2016 Brazilian Paracycling Cup, Malavazzi dominated the endurance and time trial events of the women's H3 handbike and won two gold medals.[3] In the 3rd stage, she again won the time trial and endurance events in the same category.[4] After four stages, the Brazilian Paracycling Cup came to an end in Aracajú, Sergipe. Malavazzi scored 120 points and won the title of the women's H3 handbike category. She finished the competition with six gold medals.[5]

Malavazzi represented Brazil at the 2016 Summer Paralympics in Rio de Janeiro.[6]

In May 2017, Malavazzi won the silver medal in the Maniago (Italy) stage of that year's UCI Paracycling World Cup. The athlete completed the 49.7 km course in 1h39min22, behind only the American Alicia Dana.[7] In the Ostend (Belgium) stage, she covered the 15 km race in 31min34s91 and finished 4th in the time trial.[8] Malavazzi also won bronze in the endurance event, completing the 40 km course in 1:21:38. She was beaten by the Italians Francesca Porcellato (gold) and Rita Cucuro (silver).[9] In the Pietermaritzburg (South Africa) stage, she finished fourth in the time trial and endurance events.[10][11]

In the 2018 Paracycling World Cup, Malavazzi took second place in the Emmen (Netherlands) stage.[12] In August 2018, she won the bronze medal in the time trial at the Para-cycling Road World Championships in Maniago, Italy.[13]
