Biography
For Tammaro Cassandro, skeet shooting is a family tradition. Growing up in Capua, he began shooting under the guidance of his uncle Ennio Falco, an Olympic gold medallist at Atlanta 1996, and with the support of his father Franco and mother Ivana, a physical education teacher. His accolades include two silver medals, one at the World Championship and another at the European Championship, both secured in 2019 on the home turf of Lonato del Garda. With a law degree to his name, Tammaro balances his sporting career with a deep commitment to his family and his wife, Samara. His life philosophy, "Fight to win," has been his guiding principle. At Paris 2024, his goal is to honour his family, his hometown, and all of Italy. His ultimate dream is to clinch his first Olympic medal, narrowly missed during his debut at Tokyo 2020.
