(ANSA) - Salerno, August 4 - CONI Salerno provincial delegate
Paola Berardino told ANSA that now that the 2019 Summer
Universiade, which took place in Naples and Campania July 3-14,
is over, the biggest challenge will be maintaining the newly
restored sporting facilities.
"The Universiade was an unrepeatable event, a great
opportunity also from the point of view of sporting facilities,
which are always suffering," Berardino said.
"Thanks to the Universiade there was development in some of
the facilities, which are now in ideal condition to host even
international events. The entire region participated
enthusiastically in this event, which brought many important
sporting results to our country," she said.
"I hope that the structures can remain the jewels that they
are, that they can be taken care of, because it's not often that
such favourable occasions happen for facilities. The hope, in
addition, is that the structures can host other events, because
the organisational component also worked at its best," she said.
