Abstract: the young athletes of the Italian “Azzurro” (light blue) trampoline diving team arrive at the Olympic Village of Munich in Bavaria. The children are feeling sad and confused because of the long distance from home; they start to train in the pool but they cannot concentrate and feel discouraged, feeling the comparison with the athletes of the other teams. The trainer then decides to encourage them by having Barilla pasta cooked for them, and this brings back their enthusiasm and creates a moment of happiness to share with their sports competitors.
