The Italian Archery Federation (FITARCO) hosted a two-day national youth training and monitoring camp across Belforte del Chienti and Caldarola, bringing together emerging archers, personal coaches, and federal staff to advance technical development in the Marche region.
Federal Leadership Directs Technical Evaluation
National Technical Directors Matteo Bisiani and Tiziano Xotti led the multi-day gathering in the Marche, working alongside regional program coordinators Isabella Di Nardo and Marco Feliziani. The initiative relies on close cooperation between the federal technical structure, regional coaches, and the personal trainers who guide athletes daily at their local clubs. This shared framework aims to align methodological approaches and technical targets across Italian archery.
