Gabriele Merello

Activity Leader

Who am I

Born and raised in Camogli. I study mechanical engineering in Genoa. My approach to the world of sport happened relatively late, with the exception of activities such as kayaking and swimming which, living by the sea, I have always considered “normal”… like walking. The first contact with OP happened thanks to my relatives (Angelo, Daniele and Giulia, already members of the team) who were looking for unskilled workers during the organization of the first Blue Mile of Niasca.

It was right at the end of that day that I got involved in the Outoor Portofino kayak polo team. Later I was always available whenever extra help was needed. In 2023, I actually joined the team!
