Ceccarelli wanted to take money from the federation and train daughter in her team. The federation didn`t want to agree to this, because we are talking about a 16-year-old girl at the time. Private teams have stars with recognized achievements, e.g. Brignone or Goggia (they also trained in junior teams at the age of 16). In my opinion, Ceccarelli could have collected money from private funds, after all, with such successes of her daughter it wouldn`t be a problem. Tina Maze also separated from Slovenia at some point and created her own team. In a situation in which Colturi would start to achieve successes, then the federation should start to finance her team more + private sponsors. For me it`s simple.

 

Ok, so I guess federation didn't want to create special rules for a single athlete no matter how promising she is but overall they have mismanaged it more IMO. It's rather obvious any parent will always support their child first. I'm sure there could have been an agreement to return some loans in the future especially that those "private" contracts like Red Bull were always more probable to happen plus the entire exposure hype with the next WOG in Italy.

Yes, you are right. The fault lies on both sides in my opinion.

Seems to be quite common - like Estelle Alphond for :SWE because her father fell out with :FRA
