TRAVELLING the world for sports:  INLINE SPEED SKATING

Immagine
EUROPEAN CHAMPION in 10,000 m Points Road Race ... ... after devastating fall in the Elimination Track Race just four days earlier...
You start a sport as a child just for fun, to keep fit and socialise.  Then you become good at it and start participating in competitions and suddenly you are competing all over the world.

BEFORE: Devastating fall, 3 stitches on eyebrow, black eye, bruises... ... ... ... AFTER: great collaboration with team mates leading to EUROPEAN CHAMPIONSHIPS GOLD MEDAL 2015 in Innsbruck, Austria !!
Problems?

It's not so much communicating for logistics or with your fellow competitors - what is more important is understanding the rules, which vary from competition to competition and which the organisers seem unable to communicate to the athletes in a comprehensible manner, thus creating great irritation when a competition which could have been won wasn't, due to confusing unclear explanations.

Paolo and Laura train day in and day out as semi-professional inline speed skating athletes parallel to their studies.  It is a gruelling, time and energy consuming effort on their part which yields little more than personal satisfaction yet they are totally addicted to it and the most fun part is taking part in competitions both at home and abroad.  They are the lucky ones who appreciate their language skills on these occasions especially seeing other athletes in trouble understanding what is expected of them.  Another good reason to perfection your languages.
