Blue Roller left the UISP national championships with gold and bronze and a burst of emotion that matched the scale of the result. The medals came at UISP Skating Fest 2026, a national event that stretched from 19 June to 16 July across Bologna, Calderara di Reno, Camerano and Massa, with Blue Roller’s podium finishes standing out in a field built for multiple disciplines and multiple days of racing.

The club’s double-medal haul reflected more than one strong skate. UISP split the artistic program across key sites and categories, with obbligatori in Bologna at PalaPilastro, Category and Solo Dance at Centro Sportivo Pederzini in Calderara di Reno, and Formula events in Massa. That structure placed Blue Roller in the kind of championship environment where depth matters as much as one clean run, and the gold-and-bronze finish suggested a program that had athletes ready for more than a single peak performance.

The championship itself was run with the kind of detail that marks a large national meet. UISP said entries had to go through its new portal, late registrations were not accepted, and music files had to be uploaded by 23:59 on 1 June 2026. Solo Dance element forms were due through the same system, and coaches had to sign in and confirm athletes’ presence before competition. That level of administration underlined how tightly the festival was controlled, with no room for last-minute improvisation once the entry window closed.

UISP also kept the track schedule moving as the championship unfolded, publishing updated Calderara track-entry information on 23 June 2026. With Bologna and Calderara serving as major artistic venues and the championship spread across several Italian locations, Blue Roller’s finish landed inside a national program that demanded preparation across disciplines, paperwork and timing. The medals gave the club a result worth celebrating, but the bigger signal was the range behind them: a roster and coaching setup that could reach the podium in more than one way.
