i wouldn't be surprised though
It should be the rink in San Donato Milanese (a small town close to Milano). It is run by Accademia del Ghiaccio. It closed down last September because they couldn't afford the increasing costs.Did Gabriele change coaches? He posted on insta from a rink apparently in Milano with the caption "First week in my new home"?
Or did Magri go to Milano and he went with him?
Rossi's coaching situation is up in the air now, after the Young Goose Academy recently relocated.
"The academy has moved from Egna to Milan," Rossi noted. "Some skaters are following them and some are changing. It is pretty complicated now. Everyone is trying to figure out what to do. I don't even know what I am going to do. That is why I came here, to participate in some of the other camps and see which place is meant to be."
Yep, Luc (Giorgia), Tobia and Eva Martinek (and possibly even more Austrians)Wow, thanks for sharing. I wonder how this will play out. YGA has quite the collection of skaters, some are bound to end up with other teams now.
Especially curious what Luc Maierhofer will do, but that's a discussion for another thread.
Martinek is not listed on YGA coaching team on their website anymore.Yep, Luc (Giorgia), Tobia and Eva Martinek (and possibly even more Austrians)
interesting, interesting. I hope she can put full force into her country now would be awesomeMartinek is not listed on YGA coaching team on their website anymore.
Does anyone know if this affects the YGA ice dancers (Zanni et al.)?So, accidentially found out about YGA in this article:
[ICE TIME] Talented Skater Naoki Rossi Inspired by Visit to His Ancestral Homeland | SportsLook
Teenager Naoki Rossi talks about the challenges of becoming an elite skater, his skating inspiration, his bicultural upbringing and much more.featured.japan-forward.com
I guess he could have been the driving force behind the relocation? As Magri "avoided" the move?Does anyone know if this affects the YGA ice dancers (Zanni et al.)?
irThere is a public tender open right now for the recruitment of 28 athletes to be assigned to the "State Police - Fiamme Oro" sports groups who will be classified in the role of agents and assistants of the State Police. It includes:
1 spot Figure Skating - Pairs, female athlete
1 spot Figure Skating - Pairs, male athlete
1 spot Figure Skating - Single, male athlete
So it should be be Conti, Macii and Memola.
Ghilardi and Ambrosini are already prison police officers. Guarise is already a police agent and Beccari is a prison police officer.
Rizzo is a prison police officer and Grassl and Frangipani are police agents.
if they want to (clearly it would be just office job), but in reality it's just about fundingHow does all that work? Do they have to work in the field after their skating careers end?

From what I know of Italians in other sports, those that get on the Police Sports Programme do light duties during the off season. Such as acting as traffic wardens.
oh don't worry, i got mineThank goodness for that. I dread to think what would happen if one of your kids left handcuffs lying about the house, and you got your hands on them...

She also discusses Cimlova/Cirisano and their visit to I.AM's training centre. It seems that, for now, they have chosen to base themselves with Barbara and her team, but the ins and outs of the arrangement are very interesting.We have almost finished the free dance – and I’m thrilled with how it’s turning out. We chose the music together, and I can see how much Charlene and Marco enjoy what they skate to....
In the upcoming season, they will present something different again – we decided not to repeat ourselves. And believe me, it will be something incredible! We will start working on the rhythm dance in the next few days, so we’re immersing ourselves in the music of the 80s.
Thanks! I always wondered how this worked. I know several of the gymnasts on the national team joined the army or police. Appreciate the detailed explanation.When they are enrolled in an armed forces/military group, they receive the monthly salary corresponding to the level of the position they are (they can raise within the ranks during their active careers as promotions are usually done based on number of years of "service").
Then when they retire, it is up to them. They can resign or stay in the forces. If they stay, some switch to active duties, others stay in the sport group (to do administrative stuffs or as parts of coaching/management teams).
They can end up in out of office duties too, especially those in the police (I mean, stopping cars and checking documents, patrolling public spaces, etc).
I think in the off season, they usually do the specific training required (polygons, etc) to keep the qualifications. They have some camps.
any hint on what they may pick as R&D? no eh?I figured this was probably the best place for most of this interview (although I'm cross-posting in the I.AM dominance thread, as it's also relevant)
