Lecce, via its official website, announced the victory by the president Saverio Sticchi Damiani of the Maestrelli Prize. This is the note from the Salento people:
“The awards ceremony (in which the President will not be able to take part personally due to the coincidence with the Lecce – Udinese match) will be held on Monday 13 May 2024 at 6.30 pm at the Teatro Comunale di Latina and will be conducted by RAI Sport journalists Jacopo Volpi and Simona Rolandi.
The award, chaired by Giulio and Massimo Halasz, is now in its sixteenth edition and is annually awarded to fourteen personalities who, in their field, have distinguished themselves not only for the results obtained, but above all for fair play and professionalism. The prize consists of a white ceramic sculpture representing a Nike embracing an “old-fashioned” leather ball, approximately 20 centimeters high.
In addition to our president Sticchi Damiani, among the winners for the other categories of this edition there are also Demetrio Albertini (president of the National Technical Sector), Fabio Pecchia (Parma coach), Alberto Rimedio (Rai journalist), Vito Tisci (president of the Youth and School Sector FIGC), Maria Sole Ferrieri Caputi (CAN A and B referee) and other personalities from the sporting world”.
