n the shadow of the Neptune fountain, in the magnificent setting of the historic centre of Trento, the champion, Letizia Paternoster introduces the team of the Eletta Trentino Cycling Academy that is about to take part in the 2022 racing season.

The twelve registered athletes, aged between 13 and 15, will take part in the national championships calendar in the women beginners and women students’ categories. The Italian team time trial championship, scheduled for the end of the season, is one of the most eagerly awaited events and an absolute first for the student category.

“To stand out in sport, and in life, you have to grow up in the right environment – says Letizia -. At this age, it is extremely important to learn through different experiences and from people who are capable of transmitting experience and values. I was lucky enough to meet people who have helped me develop as an athlete and as a woman. The purpose of the Eletta Trentino Cycling Academy is to help girls grow up together to become adults”.

“Our mission is to create value in the area by believing and enhancing local resources – confirmed Marco Correale, the Senior Development Manager of Eletta, a leading company in the building redevelopment sector and the title sponsor of the team –. Talent has to be cultivated; it requires determination and perseverance, teamwork and passion for the sport that will make women athletes excel. We believed in the Trentino Cycling Academy project and its patron Letizia Paternoster from the very beginning and the results were seen straight away. Energy is the driver that connects sport and performance to create a unique and redeveloped environment”.
