«It will be a very exciting day for us, we will present the new athletes and those who are fifty-odd years old today– so master Ferrigno -. We are a small container with athletes who put a lot of desire and passion into us, which is why the day will be focused on everyone and not just on “prominent” judokas. We look at the last as if they were the first, we want them to grow together with others and be passionate about it. The competitive activity will be seen later, if they want and manage to participate in these races.”
«I remember it, they were two guys in two garages with an infinite passion when they started– said the sports councilor Giancarlo Ceresola –. What they have given to the territory is more than a competitive result, but it is a culture of respect for rules and people, training, sacrifice and all the traditional values of sport. And this is why they have many members, more than gyms in big cities”
