Naples. Tomorrow, Tuesday 14 September, three Italian swimmers, Scozzoli, Ciampi and Di Liddo they will be at thePausilipon Hospital together with the Isl CEO Andrea DiNino and to the gm of Aqua Centurions Domenico Fioravanti for donate blood for children hospitalized in the facility in order to encourage this positive practice unfortunately abandoned in the times of Covid19.
Also tomorrow at 11.00 the Circolo Canottieri will award Lenny Krayzelburg (3 gold medals at the Sydney 2000 Olympics in the 100 m and 200 m backstroke, as well as in the 4x100 m medley relay) Maxime Rooney and Ingrid Wilm, respectively GM and swimmers of LA Current.
Wednesday 15 September Lorenzo Zazzeri, silver in Tokyo in the 4×100m freestyle relay and painter, will meet the master Lello Esposito, one of the most celebrated artists on the Italian and international scene (https://lelloesposito.com/), at his Atelier in Piazza San Domenico Maggiore. At 14 pm the Energy Standard team will visit, at the invitation of the Campania Region, the MANN, the largest archaeological museum in the world, where ten works have been matched with as many teams taking part in theInternational Swimming League.
Medals meet medals and so does the visit of Luca Curatoli, silver in the men's sabre team at Tokyo 2020 Federica Pellegrini and to the boys of Aqua Centurions, among which, Alessandro Miressi, Thomas Ceccon, Nicolò Martinenghi, all on the podium in the Japanese competition, made a star-filled evening even brighter, embellished by a swimming pool that is always selling out at weekends.
Yesterday I cheered like a stadium for Alessandro Miressi in Skin Race but all the results of the Aqua Centurions were characterized by the encouragement of the Neapolitan public.
And so, at the end of the sixth match of the International Swimming League of Naples, the Italian fencer met Federica Pellegrini “that I didn't know personally but the fame, and the victories, those yes”. Could the International Swimming League become a fencing format too? “It's definitely very interesting to see the greatest champions starring at the same time in the same place. It's really cool” added the sabre silver. “It was a nice visit – added Federica Pellegrini – the emotions of Tokyo are always important and reliving them is always a pleasant fact. Then Curatoli and the Italian sabre did really important things”.
Thus ended another week of successes for the International Swimming League which, halfway through its Neapolitan journey, entered into osmosis with the territory, from a competitive, tourist and social point of view.
“We are happy with how the kids are literally immersing themselves in Naples and the Campania Region – the thoughts of the head of the Neapolitan organization Marco Aloi – after all, there are their stories on social media that testify to their attachment to the territory: from the panoramic photos that Federica Pellegrini posts from the top floor of the hotel that hosts her to the videos from Capri, from the Spanish Quarters to Sanità, from the Archaeological Museum to the pizzerias. The 320 swimmers present are demonstrating that they appreciate everything and we receive many requests for advice on what to do and where to go once the training sessions are over”.

For Andrea DiNino, gm of Isl “having the pool full on the day of Napoli-Juventus is confirmation of how great swimming does not fear comparisons despite a major event like the Maradona match.

The format chosen by Isl of continuous show races with many champions in the pool is meeting with success even with a demanding public like the Neapolitan one. Furthermore, we will strengthen the social activity in the territory, which will continue for the entire stay of ISL in the city”.
