One exemplary history

Of Pascquale Tina

But also of lottatori. Also and above all on the tata one to me. Above all in Campania. You do not believe to us? Then we give the numbers: the of campania regional committee of the Fijlkam boasts altogether beyond 7300 tesserati, that is many more than how much of it they do not number some Federations in national field. Limiting us to the judo we have 2480 practicing male ones, 312 feminine ones, 65 societies with ballot right, 348 leaders, 42 teaching officials of contest and 139.
- Merit of the job of group of many volenterosi, between which it appeals to to us to remember Luigi Nasti, one that has always fought. On the tata one to me and in the life. Because the judo it is philosophy, but also a baggage stracolmo of education and formation that helps to exceed the difficult moments. "In our sport there is a simple rule: when it falls, you must be raised ".
- Luigi has made it and continues to make it, with extraordinary enthusiasm. Although its disease. Renal dysfunction, dialysis three times to the week the monday, the Wednesday and the friday. "this problem in 1989 has diagnosed Me, the doctors has not known to explain the reason to me. In 2000 me they are subordinate to a transplant, but the operation has not gone well, hour is newly in wait list ".
- Luigi - Gino for the friends - it has tightened the teeth. And it has gone ahead. "For same me - the quarantasettenne explains Neapolitan - but also for my family. They are married from 25 years with Luisa Maria and I have three splendid sons: the last one, Francisco, have seven years and are a gift of the Getlteman. You cannot let go ". - Also thanks to one incrollabile faith... "E' the light of my existence".
-... with to the judo... "it has taught to Me to resist. Making one step at a time. Without to lose the confidence. When I fought and the encounter was to the sgoccioli, I have always held hard. 30"ends, I have them always considers you 30 times a second, otherwise was difficult to arrive until in bottom. With the dialysis it is the same thing, not task never to the entire cycle of cures, I concentrate myself on the single day ".
- Because the life goes fully enjoyed. "Setting up it on the quality. My disease me door via much time. Every single moment is precious ". - and Luigi not if of it it loses one. Teaching ("physical Education to the Vico grammar school, here to Naples, my day begins soon, to the 6,30"), husband ("Luisa Maria is fantastic, our understanding is perfect, me always sopportato also when I remained until the dawn in arena"), affectionate papà ("When you have three children, are unavoidablly always with you, then when six solos lack to you naturally") and judoka. Because the first love not scorda never. "I have begun prestissimo. I had four years hardly. My Aldo father (master, international arbitrator, currently president of the of campania regional committee of the Fijlkam, Luigi is its vice ones, ndr) began to carry to me in arena, the point of reference always has been the Necklace, where still standard my brother Claudius. To the beginning it was nearly a necessity, after the birth of the third son, my mother protested. In house - sorride - we were too many ".
- Better, therefore, to dedicate to the sport a lot loved. "In 1961, our discipline still did not exist to juvenile level. I was the smallest and therefore mascotte of the group. I lost nearly always ".
- the time passes in a hurry and Luigi the shoulders to the tata one has given to me less and less. "a flashing passion, from more I have then not stopped". - Much mean it: "I have competed in the 70 and the 78 chili. They are black belt sixth dan. I entered to make part of the Yellow flames and could only think next to the training ". With a fixed presence in the olympic center of the Eur, the papà of the splendid constructed system to Wafer (puts into effect it them house of our blueta). "In 1977, we were in little. Ours was one fantastic square ". With a totally new approach regarding the predecessori: "it was not enough to participate to us to the contests, we wanted also to gain them in order to conquer one medal".
- the talent - of the rest - peculiarity of that generation was one. "I prepared myself with for Ezio Leg, Happy Mariani and Sandro Rosati, solo in order to cite of some". People that if she meant some and if of she still means: "Mariani has conquered the first olympic medal (bronze to Montreal 1976), Leg the first gold".
- To Moscow, in 1980. The regret of Luigi. "there was the boycotting after the invasion of Russia in Afghanistan. The United States the disertarono ones in block; in Italy the athletes were free to choose, but for military we the road was crossed. Ezio Leg succeeded to dismiss itself in time and that Giochi gained them, Happy Mariani, instead, was forced to renounce. And to think that he was veteran from three consecutive successes to the Europeans (from 1978 to 1980). I was still in Finance, therefore not there was null to make ".
- the maledizione to five circles hit Luigi also four later years, before Los Angeles ' 84. "I had a accident to the left shoulder, a trauma that that splendid adventure cost me". - Gino abandons single the agonistica activity to 27 years. "I would have had to face an other four-year term and me I did not feel. My career, however, has been of all respect: I have conquered silver to the World-wide soldiers in 1982 and to Giochi of the Mediterranean in 1983, the bronze to the Europeans to squares in 1979. Without to omit - obviously
- the titles Italian them. Altogether I must have some gained one ten, considering also the categories juniores and the absolute ones dedicate you to we of the Armed Forces. I could continue, but ce I did not make it, therefore I left also the Yellow flames ". - Luigi recommences daccapo. "and it is not easy because you must every day accustom you to the life. When I was an agonist I had the freedom to only concentrate to me on the judo, when lathes to house are various. You must invertarti also a trade ". - Nasti chooses the instruction. "my authentic passion. I had attended the Isef and in 1986 I gained the competition to chairs. Initially I wanted to turn Italy and to become a judoka itinerante, but the responsibilities and desire to construct a family with Luisa Maria have made me to desistere from my purpose and therefore are remained to Naples ". - Better for all. "In the 1989 they have entered to make part of the of campania committee like technical officer of the judo". - It begins, insomma, one new challenge. "we have obtained good turns out to you. And the merit is of the coordination between technical we. I have worked with Maddaloni father, Piccirillo, Vastarella, Of Isanto, all people of value. There is still large feeling and a same passion ".
- the continuous flame to divampare. "I have always lived therefore, is what I love. Every man has need of its gratification, to feel realized in what ago. For me the judo it is this and he will be always therefore ".
- Nearly a creature to coccolare, insomma, above all now that it is number two of the of campania committee. "our movement is much bond. We are to you concern to us in Italy after the Lazio, to the levels of Lombardy and Sicily ".
- the strategy is simple, but effective. "a recruitment certosino in the arenas and the schools. We must continue to approach the boys our sport. Here in Campania, the territory is fertile: we are of the great workers, on condition that there are strong stimuli ".
- Those of Luigi have one extraordinary intensity. It turns out to you confirm. "We must continue to grow. The agonistico speech comes in according to moment, before must think next to the formation of the young people ".
- Nearly one mission for Gino Nasti. To realize in first person. "I have a my center for the boys. I have opened in the 1989 and continuous one to carry it ahead ".
- the Nagar arena, for being precise. "we dedicate ourselves obviously to the martial limbs, but also to other asset, like the calcetto". - With a very precise idea. "the formation of the children. We support of the recovery programs in order to resolve the problems of minorile deviance. We have an agreement with the Saint church Maria of the patience, that it is just beside we. There are of the special conventions for the children of the parish, that we approach the several disciplines free of charge. E' a plan which I hold a lot, nearly entire autofinanziato. We want to have an important role in the social one ".
- Just like Gianni Maddaloni. "E' a friend, in the periphery is making great things between thousand difficulties. Also for me it is not easy. We must represent a point of reference ". With a secret small: not to never let go. On the tata one to me, but above all in the life. Just like Luigi Nasti.
