    Successfully completed the second edition of the Footy Italian Cup in 2014 .

    Thanks to the group ARL of Milano (www.radiovelisti.it) who organized the event perfectly with Roberto Pedrini (the ARL’s President) and Claudio Felcini and wife who have worked for us for 2 days for the smooth running of the race .

    The wind conditions were not so regular but we have nevertheless played 17 races of 2 laps with 15 competitors in the water in a sigle fleet

    With great pleasure for us, Phil Tyler is arrived from Switzerland with two "Swedish friends" (Jonas and Fredrik) to play with us. The three foreigners were equipped with 3 Slim realized by Phil. We had known Jonas from the Gold Cup in Le Havre, where he had already raced with a boat of Phil.

    The “foreigners” have already “booked” a place for the next races at Genoa where they hope to be able to come ... if it will no for this year, definitely next year we will organize in a wonderful location Genoese an international regatta ... If it will not be called “Gold Cup”, we'll call it "Golden Cup" or "Platinum Cup" ... the name is the last problem, but we have already at least 3 pre-registration

    The competition has been very close with in the head groups of 6-7 boats leading top positions. Very nice and fast the new Engi Boat who won more races than all the others (7). With 6 races won my Urca Footy V3, then 3 first for Gigi’s boat and 1 for the Phil’s Slim .
