Julia Calliari nominated for the “European Youth Olympic Trials” in Baku

The Italian squad for the “European Youth Olympic Trials” in the capital of Azerbaijan has been announced. 39 “Azzurri” (18 boys and 21 girls) will take part in the European qualifying competitions for the Summer Youth Olympic Games from Friday, March 30th to Sunday, June 1st. The “Youth Olympic Games”, however, will be held in Nanjing (China) from August 16th to 28th.

South Tyrolean Julia Viktoria Calliari is also part of the Italian national team's 39-strong squad for the qualifying competitions in Baku. She will compete in the 100 m. Two weeks ago, the 17-year-old sprinter from the Bozen Running Club set a new U100 national record over 12.02 m in 18 seconds, improving the old record set by Karmen Baumgartner from Bruneck in 1978 by four hundredths (12.06 seconds). This meant she achieved the second best Italian time so far this season. Only Alessia Pavese, who ran the 100 m in 12.01 seconds in Lodi last Saturday, has been better this year. Last year, Julia Calliari reached the semi-finals at the U18 World Cup in Donetsk (Ukraine).
