And Lignano Sabbiadoro will be the stage for an event of international value capable of bringing over several hundred athletes from five continents to Italy. With the voice of Roberta Ammendola, journalist and Rai presenter, it was presented at the Bella Italia Village, on the occasion of “talentopInnato” (an event that recorded the presence in the water of many students of the University of Udine and of the High Schools of Lignano Sabbiadoro and San Vito al Tagliamento).

And Carlo Allegrini, President of the Fipsas Underwater Activities and Finswimming Sector, was clear: «The collaboration with Cusi will be essential to organize a memorable edition of the World Cup. The declared goal is to show off our discipline, to make its beauty “explode” with the sinuosity of our athletes, the fastest ever in the water. Lignano Sabbiadoro will be the starting point to land towards the Universiade: a goal that fin swimming is largely able to achieve thanks to the close collaboration with the Fisu (International University Sports Federation) “.
