The club was founded in 1926 and plays its home games at the Stadio Valentino Mazzola , which can seat 2,100 spectators. Santarcangelo Calcio has never played first or second class and is currently in Serie D , the fourth highest division in Italy .
history
Santarcangelo Calcio srl was founded in 1926 under its current name. The association is based in Santarcangelo di Romagna , a town with around 22,000 inhabitants in the province of Rimini in the northern Italian region of Emilia-Romagna . With regard to the first decades of its existence up to 1959, it is not entirely clear in which leagues the club played football. It was not until 1959 that it became clear that Emilia-Romagna was operating on a regional level. This did not change at first. Including occasional promotions and relegations within the regional and lower-class leagues, Santarcangelo Calcio played in the leagues of the region up to and including 1982.
In 1982 he was promoted to the Campionato Interregional, today's Serie D for the first time . Santarcangelo was able to hold himself there for a few years and even approached a possible promotion to the third division during this time. In 1983/84 they finished third, 1984/85 second and 1982/83 and 1985/86 fourth in the respective group of the Campeonato Interregional. In 1990 Santarcangelo Calcio rose again from the fourth division and disappeared for a few years in regional football in Emilia-Romagna.
Since 1999/2000 Santarcangelo Calcio has played uninterruptedly at least in Serie D, which during this time was partly fourth and partly fifth. Two name changes also occurred during this period. So they called themselves from 2004 Associazione Sportiva Santarcangelo , from 2006 Associazione Sportiva Dilettantistica Santarcangelo and finally from 2011 again Santarcangelo Calcio . Overall, Santarcangelo acted in the first few years after returning to Serie D rather in a relegation battle. In the 2010/11 season they finished the Girone F of Serie D as the first before Teramo Calcio and rose to the Lega Pro Seconda Divisione , at that time Italy's fourth-highest division. There Santarcangelo Calcio managed to establish himself. By a fifth in the 2013/14 season, the club reached the qualification for the merger of Lega Pro Prima Divisione newly established and Lega Pro Seconda Divisione Lega Pro , in the club since first playing mediocre. 2017/18 Santarcangelo Calcio is already in his fourth third division season. However, this one ended only in seventeenth place in the table and then missed relegation after losing playout games against Vicenza Calcio , so that Santarcangelo has been back in fourth class since 2018.
Stadion
Santarcangelo Calcio plays its home games at the Stadio Valentino Mazzola in Santarcangelo di Romagna. The sports facility was built in the early 1970s and now offers space for 2,064 spectators.
The stadium is named after Valentino Mazzola , the captain of the so-called Grande Torino , the successful team of the then AC Turin , which won the Italian championship five times in a row between 1942 and 1949, only with an interruption due to the Second World War . On May 4, 1949 almost the entire team of AC Turin was killed in the Superga plane crash . Valentino Mazzola was also among the victims of the crash. Even though Mazzola had no ties to Santarcangelo di Romagna, the municipal football stadium still bears his name.
