Marta Maggetti, gold medalist in windsurfing in Paris, lived in Maracalagonis from the age of one until 2020, before moving to Cagliari.
The mayor Francesca Fadda proudly claims this, announcing on social media that « Marta, now resident in Cagliari, lived in Maracalagonis from the age of one, until 2020, with her parents. She has always been active in sport, encouraged by her father Sandro, coach of Mara 2000 Basket in the Chicca Corona basketball school. Marta has therefore breathed the sporting air in her family since she was a child and then reached the finish line of the Guardia di Finanza, subsequently in the sports section and decided to move to Cagliari precisely to live near the gym that trained her successfully to be able to achieve this brilliant result."
Mayor Fadda adds: « Mom Betty and dad Sandro are very excited and are returning from Paris and given Marta's dedication to Gigi Riva, I could only officially invite her as godmother of a sporting event being organized in the square dedicated to Gigi Riva, in our sports area."
