Promoting Italian sport, its athletes, its values and the meaning of the Italian jersey as a symbol of the Olympic culture is the objective of the Parliamentary Intergroup "Friends of the Values of Sport and the Italian Jersey", which continues its work, also promoted in this legislature by Congressman Roberto Pella and Senator Daniela Sbrollini, gathering the support and enthusiasm of many adherents. After the Olympic successes in Tokyo, which helped to defend and honor the colors and values of the Italian jersey at the Olympics and Paralympics, but also in many other subsequent European and international competitions, some also hosted by our country, the Parliamentary Intergroup will turn its gaze to the next events, such as the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milan and Cortina, with awareness-raising initiatives. It is the intention of the Parliamentary Intergroup to promote a series of institutional activities to support athletes and the Italian jersey, starting the right synergies with the Government and the Department of Sport, the Italian National Olympic Committee (CONI), the Italian Paralympic Committee (CIP), Sport and Health SpA, together with the entire sports world in Italy to relaunch the Italian sports sector at all levels. "We are confident that our Intergroup will be able to play a fundamental role in promoting the national values of sport and practice, and in supporting the Italian athletes and teams that will represent our country in national and international competitive contexts in the months to come," said Intergroup co-chairs Daniela Sbrollini and Roberto Pella in the note.
