The annual Marelba sports initiative on Elba Island features a dedicated open day for archery and baseball on Sept. 7, offering free public tryouts and community demonstrations at the local sports grounds, according to local event coverage.
Organized locally by the sports association Gli Archi del Grande Falco A.S.D., the open day runs from 09:00 to 20:00 local time (UTC+2) at the association’s shooting field located in the Literno area of Procchio, as reported by Tirreno Elba News. Visitors of all ages can test equipment and receive basic instruction in both disciplines throughout the day.
The event forms part of the broader Marelba sports project. Association representatives publicly thanked Alessandro Davini, the creator and driving force behind Marelba, alongside his operational staff and the Municipality of Marciana for coordinating community sports opportunities across the island.
Event Details and Schedule
The open day schedule spans eleven continuous hours to accommodate families, tourists, and local residents interested in trying non-traditional sports on Elba. According to event organizers, participants can access training equipment and receive guidance from experienced club members at no cost.
