Francis Pala with the Lombarda representative shirt
Francis Pala from Ciniselle was also among the great protagonists of the national youth relay teams that took to the track at the Roma Sprint Festival at the Stadio dei Marmi last weekend.
Pala was competing for the 4×100 together with Francesco Pagliarini, Daniele Orlando and Leo Domenis: the blue quartet recorded the Best Italian U18 Performance for a national team, with a time of 40.90. «A natural talent that of Francis Pala, athlete of the historic Cinisellese club Cba – declared the mayor of Cinisello Balsamo Giacomo Ghilardi -. Student at Falk in via di Vittorio, born in 2007, at the championships in Rome, a few days ago, he qualified for the under 18 European athletics championships, scheduled in Slovakia from 18 to 21 July. Beyond his physique which seems made for running and achieving great results, Francis is a golden boy in life too, involved in daily training and in the oratory as a volunteer for summer camps. Francis is young but already has an Italian record in the men’s under 18 4×100 relay category. A record that our country hasn’t won for a long time and which arrived from Cinisello Balsamo with a truly remarkable time.”
