Personal life

[edit]

Piredda was born on September 28, 2002.[1]

She currently studies at the University of Verona.[2]

Career

[edit]

Early years

[edit]

Piredda began learning to skate in 2006.[1] She was initially interested in pursuing ice hockey and would ultimately decide to switch to figure skating after being inspired by watching Italian figure skater, Paolo Bacchini, train at her skating rink.[3] Joanna Szczypa would become her coach when she was about five years old.[4]

Making her junior international debut, Piredda won silver at the Cup of Tyrol in February 2017. Continuing in the junior ranks, she took gold at the Dragon Trophy in February 2018 and Egna Trophy in April that same year.[5]

2018–2019 season: Junior Grand Prix and World Championship debut

[edit]

In September, Piredda debuted on the ISU Junior Grand Prix series, placing thirteenth 2018 JGP Canada. She then went on to take gold on the junior level at the 2018 Halloween Cup and silver on the junior level at the 2018 Prague Cup. In December, she won the junior ladies title at the 2019 Italian Championships.[5]

Piredda's senior international debut came in January at the 2019 Toruń Cup. She would then medal at two other senior events, taking bronze at the 2019 Dragon Trophy and the 2019 Cup of Tyrol. She was ultimately selected to represent Italy at the 2019 World Championships in Saitama, Japan. Piredea would place twenty-seventh in the short program, failing to advance to the free skate segment of the competition.[5] She followed this event by winning bronze at the 2019 Egna Spring Trophy.[5]

Piredda was later invited to compete for Team Italy at the 2019 World Team Trophy. At the event, Piredda would score personal bests in all competition segments, finishing seventh in the women's individual event and Team Italy would place sixth overall.[5][6]

2019–2020 & 2020–21 seasons: Injury

[edit]

Due to a foot injury that required surgery during the summer off-season, Piredda was only able to resume training in the fall.[3] Her first competitions of the season were at the 2019 CS Ice Star and the 2019 CS Warsaw Cup, where she placed seventh and eighteenth, respectively. In December, she competed at the 2020 Italian Championships, where she would win the silver medal.[5]

Shortly following the national championships, Piredda would reinjure her foot due to tissues having not fully healed from her previous surgery. As a result, Piredda was forced to stop training, thus ending her season. She would also miss the entire 2020–21 figure skating season to fully recover from this injury.[3]

2021–2022: Return to Competition

[edit]

Piredda made her return to competition in December 2021 at the 2022 Italian Championships, where she captured the bronze medal. She was ultimately selected to compete at the 2022 European Championships in Tallinn, Estonia. At that event, Piredda would skate a solid short program, placing fourteenth in that segment and qualifying for the free skate. However, she would be forced to withdraw before the free program due to testing positive for COVID-19.[5][7]

She would eventually close her season with a fourth-place finish at the 2022 Egna Spring Trophy.[5]

2022–2023 season

[edit]

Piredda started the season by finishing fourth at the 2023 Italian Championships. Selected to compete at the 2023 Winter World University Games, Piredda finished seventh at the event. She subsequently competed at the 2023 Dragon Trophy where she placed fifth before closing her season by winning gold at the 2023 Maria Olszewska Memorial.[5]

2023–2024 season

[edit]

Piredda opened the season by winning gold at the 2023 EduSport Trophy. Going on to compete at the 2024 Italian Championships, Piredda would finish fourth. She subsequently placed seventh at the 2024 Bavarian Open and won bronze at the 2024 Merano Cup.[5]

She would then finish the season by winning gold at the 2024 Maria Olszewska Memorial and the 2024 Triglav Trophy.[5]

2024–2025 season

[edit]

Piredda began the season by competing on the 2024–25 ISU Challenger Series, finishing fifth at the 2024 CS Trophée Métropole Nice Côte d'Azur. One month later, she competed at the 2024 CS Warsaw Cup, where she won the bronze medal.[5]
