Chi è Niccolo Badocchi
Description
I started playing in Rugby Badia in 1996 until 2001, the year in which I participated in the FIRA world championships in Chile with the U.19 national team and made my debut in Serie B.
In the summer of 2001 I moved to Rovigo, where, since 2002, I have played more than 100 first-team games between league and cups, winning the U.21 championship in 2004 and reaching, with the first team, an Italian Cup final (2006) and 2 Super 10 semifinals (2009 and 2010).
In January 2011 I moved to CUS Verona rugby where I played until 2017 captaining the team in 2 semifinals for the promotion to Excellence. Here I specialize in the management and preparation of the touche
.In the 2017-2018 season I became assistant coach of the first Verona rugby team with the role of “skills & lineouts coach”, and I obtained the promotion to Excellence.
From 2017 to today, I have established a personal collaborative relationship with Marco Bortolami, attending various training sessions at Benetton Treviso aimed at specific training for the lineup.
With this in mind, in 2021 I participate in 2 international webinars on the lineup held by Geoff Parling (Melbourne Rebels forward coach) and Dewal Senekal (Stade Francais forwards coach).He moved to Rugby Badia in the summer of 2018 as head of the first team's forwards, for two seasons.
In March 2019, I joined the Rovigo Delta Rugby staff as coach of the lineup, and of the forwards, reaching the championship final in 2019, winning the Italian Cup in 2020 and the Championship in 2021.
Since March 2022 I have been responsible for the lineup of the first Verona rugby team and I work with Accademia u.19 always as coach of the touche.
