Andrea “Lucky” Lucchetta

FILA Museum Foundation is thrilled to announce Andrea Lucchetta as a main ambassador, Lucchetta is a true volleyball hero who personifies the core values of sports; loyalty, inclusion, play as a tool for growth, and, above all, the firm belief that sports should be within everyone’s reach.

In addition to his illustrious sporting career, Andrea Lucchetta is known for his social commitment. In close collaboration with the Foundation, he is actively involved in initiatives and competitions throughout the year, with a particular focus on sensitive issues such as ludomania. At a time when unsupervised use of tablets and smartphones is increasingly prevalent, the Foundation and its Ambassador are working to address the growing phenomenon of children at risk of game addiction.

The signs that indicate the possible onset of ludomania in children and adolescents are well researched, but often overlooked. Andrea Lucchetta has created informative videos that guide parents and educators in identifying these. These valuable tools offer an informative and sensitive perspective on ludomania and promote greater awareness and prevention.

In parallel, FILA Foundation Museum has expressed its intent to actively participate in the popularization of spikeball, the ‘smashing’ ball game. An offshoot of volleyball, it’s a didactic and engaging sport, Spikeball has created a new game plan that places vigorous volleyball gestures and attacking opponents at the heart of its strategy. It’s an extraordinary educational journey that transforms the sport from ‘individual’ to ‘team’.

With this initiative FILA Foundation Museum strengthens its commitment to promoting a clean, inclusive sport suitable for all, and thus contributing to the well-being of our society, both present and future.
