  • I Ragazzi Guardano Le Stelle Ping-Pong
    I ragazzi guardano le Stelle Ping-Pong di Enzo Pettinelli con la consulenza di Nicola Falappa Senigallia, Giugno 2011 I ragazzi guardano le Stelle Tutti i diritti letterari di quest’opera sono di esclusiva proprietà dell’autore. 3 Enzo Pettinelli Presentazione Presentare una nuova fatica letteraria di Enzo Pettinelli è per me sempre un grande onore, sia dal punto di vista personale che istituzionale. Il nuovo lavoro, dal titolo “I ragazzi guardano le stelle”, che avrà diffusione esclusivamente per via informatica, coniuga perfettamente due aspetti fondamentali del tennistavolo che Enzo Pettinelli, dall’alto della sua esperienza, ben conosce. Il coniugare infatti il grande mondo dei campioni, che hanno timbrato con la loro presenza e le loro prestazioni indimenticabili, le più importanti manifestazioni mondiali, con il mondo dei ragazzi che nel tennistavolo vedono anche un modo per giocare, divertirsi e sognare, mi sembra veramente una mirabile intuizione che certamente sarà da tutti apprezzata. Il lavoro di Enzo, con cui l’autore vuole anche celebrare a suo modo il 150° dell’Unità d’Italia, si colloca come importante progetto culturale, all’interno della rafforzata collaborazione in atto tra la nostra federazione, il TT Senigallia ed il Centro Federale della città marchigiana. Passione ed emozioni da una parte, tecnologia ed innovazione dell’altra sono le componenti fondamentali di un’idea cui auguro tutto il successo che merita anche nell’interesse del nostro amore comune per il tennistavolo. Franco Sciannimanico Presidente Fitet 4 I ragazzi guardano le Stelle Note dell’autore Non è solo ping-pong o tennistavolo. È un’avventura vissuta dai bambini, attraverso il loro modo d’essere.
