Ghiardello missed the Italian trials in 1928 due to appendicitis and could therefore not qualify for the 1928 Summer Olympics. In 1932 he won the bronze medal as member of the Italian boat in the coxless four competition. Four years later he finished fourth as part of the Italian boat in the coxless four event.[2]
