Arco World Cup, non-stop Azzurri: after the European Championships there is Paris.  Frangilli is back

The blue arrows are back on the road for the third international stage. A total of 16 are called up. Paralympic champion Elisabetta Mijno confirmed

It won’t be easy but they will try. In the four international away games faced so far in the summer season, the Azzurri archers have always climbed the podium, always playing more than one final. We are talking about the European Grand Prix, the world cup stages of Antalya and Gwangju and, last week, the European Championship in Munich which brought a gold, a silver, a bronze and a fourth place as a dowry. The goal is to follow this path, to confirm itself at the top also in the next engagements. The most imminent is the third stage of the cup, scheduled in Paris from 20 to 27 June. The Azzurri will be called up in total, with the men’s team that after two silvers in a row obtained in the first two phases of the world cup circuit, will try to earn other points for the world ranking, also useful in view of the Olympic qualifiers.

Frangilli is back

With respect to the European Championships, the technical director Giorgio Botto has called four athletes for the men’s Olympic and four for the women’s; same speech by the director of the compound Flavio Valesella. To underline the confirmation in the recurvo of the Paralympic champion Elisabetta Mijno, who will wear the jersey of the “normo” national team for the second time in a row and the return to an international trip of the Olympian Michele Frangilli, hero of London 2012, author of the decisive 10 at the last arrow that made the Italian success at Lord’s Cricket Ground go down in history.

The summoned

In the recurvo, in addition to Frangilli, the three Azzurri who have just won the European team title return to the field: Mauro Nespoli (Aeronautica Militare), Federico Musolesi (Aeronautica Militare) and Alessandro Paoli (Fiamme Azzurre). Also in the women’s Olympic arc confirmed the trio from Munich: Tatiana Andreoli (Fiamme Oro), Lucilla Boari (Fiamme Oro) and Elisabetta Mijno (Fiamme Azzurre), with the Tokyo 2020 owner Chiara Rebagliati (Fiamme Oro) completing the training. Numerous changes were made in the compound selections: Marco Bruno (Arcieri Iuvenilia), Leonardo Costantino (Arcieri Delle Alpi), Elia Fregnan (Arcieri Del Torrazzo) and Sergio Pagni (Arcieri Città di Pescia) were called up for the men. In the women they find the blue jersey Anastasia Anastasio (Marina Militare) after pregnancy and the junior Elisa Bazzichetto (Arcieri del Torresin), while Elisa Roner (Kosmos Rovereto) and Marcella Tonioli (Arcieri Montalcino) have been confirmed who won silver in teams at the European Championships last weekend with Sara Ret. Due to a very dense international calendar, which still pays for the delays and postponements due to covid-19, the trip to French soil will be a particular one, considering that part of the Olympic selection will start directly from Paris to reach Oran, in Algeria, where the Mediterranean Games will be played. But that will already be another story …
