First female trio in Serie A, Robert Gionelli (Coni): “Good news, the movement is growing in Piacenza too.”
You never forget the first time, especially if it is a turning point for the entire sporting movement. The Serie A match between Inter and Turin went down in history for having been directed, it had never happened before, by an all-female refereeing team. Even the well-known Inter striker Lautaro Martinez complimented the trio.
“It’s also a wonderful sign for the Piacenza movement – comments Robert Gionelli Provincial Delegate of the CONI – LThe Hague section of our territory, directed very well by Domenico Gresia, is also growing in terms of the number of girls. This is because you have worked very well with the world of schools, organizing courses for referees and gathering various support from women too. A few years ago during a Grand Gala of Piacenza sport, we awarded a girl from the Aia section of Piacenza”.
The news of the first female trio could give a further boost
“I think so. An inspiration not only for football but also for other sporting activities. Above all it will help even more to break down some mental barriers. In fact, only about ten years ago no one would have ever thought of seeing an all-female Serie A match”.
