Unime entrusts its tennis sector to the national coach Nunzio Di Pietro. In recent days he signed the contract as the new manager, which from now on will also see him involved in the Cittadella Sportivo. Di Pietro, 49 years old, current president of the Messina Tennis Academy (which currently manages the student school at the Messina Tennis Club), is an established professional and particularly respected in the environment; He has a career full of experiences behind him in the most important local clubs and beyond. An enviable path, both from a competitive point of view (in ’99 he was among the top 800 in the ATP world rankings and number 39 in Italy), and in the field of teaching and preparing young people towards competitive sports, where he achieved important results, contributing to the growth of numerous players.
Among the goals achieved and recognized by Fitp we include the latest recognition that comes from the Rocco Polimeni club of Reggio Calabria (where Di Pietro has worked for the last 10 years), obtaining first national “Super school” place in 2024 and 2025, among over 2,000 schools throughout Italy.
