Cagliari Calcio Open: a new identity for the club\u2019s paralympic sports initiatives<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Cagliari Calcio\u2019s journey into the world of paralympic sports is evolving, taking on a new identity: Cagliari Calcio Open. This project builds upon the experience of Casteddu4Special while broadening its horizons\u2014consolidating all of the club\u2019s activities in this field and opening the door to new partnerships, disciplines, and opportunities for participation.<\/p>\n\n

“Open” means being open\u2014to all people, to diverse abilities, and to various ways of experiencing sport and the *rossobl\u00f9* (red-and-blue) community. This approach also extends to the language used: it seeks to highlight athletes through their individual skills, dedication, and contributions to the team, moving beyond the label of “special.” For the 2026\/27 season, the project involves ASD Millesport in Sardinia and Tukiki in Lombardy\u2014organizations that participate in the activities of the FIGC\u2019s Paralympic Football Division. The initiative includes opportunities for shared sporting activities, meetings with various members of the Club, and chances to take part in the life of the *rossobl\u00f9* community.<\/p>\n\n

A first appointment welcomed the Millesport athletes at the Unipol Domus: after the visit to the museum, the team found the Cagliari shirts in the locker room, then worn for the championship match played in recent days. The team was also a guest of the Club on the occasion of Cagliari-Frosinone, greeting the fans with a tour of the pitch during the break.<\/p>\n\n

\u00abWearing the Cagliari shirt is a source of pride and an extra motivation for our athletes\u00bb, the words of Andrea Siddi of Millesport. \u00abThis path allows us to share experiences and build a relationship with the Club that accompanies the team throughout the season. We want to experience it on the field, in training sessions and in meeting opportunities.” The project also consolidates the relationship with Tukiki, continuing a bond that unites Sardinia and Lombardy through football.<\/p>\n\n

\u00abFor our athletes, the relationship with Cagliari represents a belonging that goes beyond geographical distance\u00bb, underlines Camilla Meroni of Tukiki. \u00abThe experiences lived together strengthened the group and created important relationships. With Open we want to continue to cultivate this bond, giving space to the passion for football and the desire to grow as a team.” The new identity will accompany a broader path, in which further Paralympic sport initiatives may find space, in addition to collaborations with the teams of the FIGC Division.<\/p>\n\n

\u00abWith Open we want to give a common home to Cagliari’s paralympic sports activities and create new opportunities for participation\u00bb, explains Elisabetta Scorcu, CSR manager of Cagliari Calcio. \u00abEven the words must be consistent with what we carry forward: we talk about athletes, their abilities and their right to fully experience sport. Our job will be to build continuity, through training, meetings and experiences that make them feel an integral part of the Club.”<\/p>\n\n
