On day 5 the wind was lighter than in the previous days and so the best conditions for scheduling Trofeo Citta di Palau, a contest dedicated to young people of the host town of Worlds. Since two years the Mucipality of Palau has made a big investment on the project "Vivere il mare - To live the sea", a rare engagement of a local authority in Italy toward a sustenable way of living the nature.
"To live the sea" is a project involving primary and junior high schools of Palau in order to support the knowledge by young people of the natural resource of Sardinia worldwide appreciated: the sea.
Within this project windsurfing, a young oriented sport respectful of landscape and environment, plays a big role, thanking to the cooperation between local authorities and windsurf schools. With the collaboration of the Worlds hosting club, Sporting Club Sardinia in Porto Pollo, since more than 25 years one of the symbols of windsurfing world in Italy and Europe too, fifteen boys and girls from eight to fourteen years old, took the fascinating experience of watching a World competition, contacting every day their more experienced friends and taking the occasion for racing in front of people, often for the first time in their life.
Contest winner has been one of the guests, Palermo-born Alice Cappuzzo from Sicily. Second place for a local "adopted" Lucrezia Genazzani, followed by Francesca Mendola.
