ROMA (ITALPRESS) – affirmed champions and young promises of Italian sport gathered at Caserma Salvo D’Acquisto in Rome. Approximately 350 athletes of the Carabinieri Sports Centre met today the General Commander of the Arma, Salvatore Luongo, at a time dedicated to those who, through sport, carry the colors and values of the Institution. “We wanted to value the figure of the Carabiniere dedicated to sport and its values. They are messengers who project, not only in the Armenian but also in the community, a bag of important values: discipline, dedication, sense of responsibility, passion and many renunciations,” said Luongo, before holding hands to athletes present during the private meeting. “These boys dress our colors and represent an example for the young generations,” added the summit of the Arma, which stressed the commitment “very hard because these young people are trained two or three times a day, from Monday to Saturday. When they have races, then, on Sunday they go to competition. Other times, however, they only have Sunday to rest. So they also represent the spirit of sacrifice with which the Carabiniere fulfils his duties.”.
Many Olympic champions present. Between these two blue shield veterans. Arianna Errigo at age 38 points to her fifth career Olympiad. “It would be a unique satisfaction and I want to enjoy it also because it will probably be my last. I want to have fun. I’m happy to be still on the platform and start a new season. For me it’s always exciting, I’m curious about how it will go. I’m preparing well.” In April 2027 the Olympic qualification will begin.
“It will already enter the climate – said Rossella Fiamingo -. Sometimes the qualification is more difficult than the Olympiad itself because there are so many strong nations and few places. We are Italy and we are very strong, but the competitions to center the Olympics are very delicate. We will do everything to be there,” added the world’s fresh team triumphist.
For now he does not want to think about Los Angeles Vito Dell’Aquila, Tokyo 2020 gold taekwondoka. “It’s too early. I am aware of the sacrifice and the stress period I lived in 2023 when the qualification for Paris was getting out of hand. I don’t want to repeat the same mistake, but think race after race”, said the blue. The next goal is the Grand Prix Final, which in November will award 100 ranking points to the winner. An important event not only in key rankings, but also to give new prestige to Italy and the Carabinieri.
