Athletics, Sandro Donati returns to the Federation after 37 years: he will train the Fidal coaches

Il Fidal Federal Council gave the green light to the new technical model for the 2025 season. “We have chosen to strengthen the structure, especially with regards to the connection with the technical activities of the territory – declared the president of Fidal, Stefano Mei – in the last four years we have raised the bar and I am convinced that with this model we will be able to continue to take Italian athletics into the future.”

The new structure

There will be three deputy technical directors who will work in contact with the dt Antonio La Torre: confirmed Roberto Pericoli (absolute national teams, high level development, coordination of sector heads) and Tonino Andreozzi (U23, U20, U18 youth national teams) in office since October 2018, while the new entry is Piero Allegretti, 52 years old, from Puglia, already coordinator of the Talent Development Plan project who will act as deputy DT for evaluation, research, data collection and territorial development. Two consultants to the technical director have been appointed: Stefano Tilli and Claudio Mazzaufo.

The Donati novelty

Return to the Federation Sandro Donati. The historic coach, champion of the fight against doping and former coach of Alex Schwazer, will be the contact person for the training of federal coaches. For the Roman coach, it is a return 37 years later: Donati coached the Italian national team from 1977 to 1987, when he was relieved of his duties for having denounced the fraud of the judges at the last jump of Giovanni Evangelisti at the World Championshipsthe famous “extended” jump at the Olimpico in Rome (8.38, then cancelled).
