Della Casa elected European Cycling Union President Saturday, 6 March 2021 Italy’s Enrico Della Casa has been elected European Cycling Union (UEC) President at the organisation’s virtual Congress. Della Casa was the sole candidate for the Presidency after incumbent Rocco Cattaneo of Switzerland opting not to seek a second term after four years in the role. He will serve a four-year term until 2025. "Leading a Continental Confederation as important as the UEC in such unprecedented times is a challenge which requires commitment and awareness," Della Casa said. "Over the last eight years as general secretary, thanks to the former Presidents, David Lappartient and Rocco Cattaneo and their respective Management Committees, we initiated a major development plan giving the UEC a new, modern and organised image making it today one of the most important and recognised organisations in European sport.
