Teenager Skateboarder Struck by Concrete Vehicle
In a heartbreaking turn of events, the figure skating community in Italy and beyond is mourning the loss of 15-year-old Matilda Ferrari. Matilda, a member of the Sporting Ghiaccio Artistico Pinzolo club, passed away on Monday following an unfortunate incident near her home in Giustino, a village in the Rendena Valley, Trentino, northern Italy.
Matilda's love for skating was evident in her daily presence on the ice and in the locker room. Despite her young age, she had big dreams and ambitions, including participating in the Winter Olympic Games. Her dedication to her craft was unwavering, as she trained hard every day with tenacity and never lost her smile or the desire to improve.
Last year, Matilda became part of the Ice Secret Team and met the ice artists Arianna Avenali, Livia Magro, and Anna Visani during her time at the Sporting Ghiaccio Artistico Pinzolo Club. Her impact extended beyond skating, inspiring others with her willpower and determination.
Tragically, Matilda was struck by a cement mixer while crossing the road to catch her school bus. The exact circumstances of the accident are being investigated by the Carabinieri.
Despite immediate medical intervention, Matilda could not be saved. The news of her passing has sent shockwaves through the skating community, who will remember Matilda for her passion, energy, and dedication to the sport.
Matilda was a sweet, happy, and determined girl, serving as a role model for younger athletes, particularly her little sister Greta. Her dream of participating in the Winter Olympic Games may have been cut short, but her spirit and legacy will live on in the hearts of those she inspired.
Our thoughts are with Matilda's family, friends, and the skating community during this difficult time.
