BACK TO ITALY CLUBS

Hi, I’m Carlos! A coach, sports enthusiast, and the founder of FCScout.com.

I fell in love with the game at a very young age like many of you. I’ve been following and playing soccer for many years.

Throughout my career, I always enjoyed helping soccer players chase their dreams, which is why I started this website. I wanted to reach a larger audience outside of my local area and fcscout.com was born.

This website is a platform I will be using to update club pages on any tryouts, stadiums, players, tech, and more from clubs around the world. I also create free recruitment profiles for players looking to have that extra competitive edge when reaching out to clubs.

That’s it. That’s my pitch for you to stick around (or browse the site as you please).

This is already too much text for a “see more” drop-down button thing. If you want to reach out to me, head on over to my contact page 🙂

Genoa Soccer – Italia

The Genoa Soccer Academy is an initiative conceived in 2009 (name acquired from the 2019-2020 sports season formerly Genoa Future Football) as an affiliation project aimed at the youth sectors of non-professional clubs at national level, with the aim of promoting football practice and spread the values ​​of sport.

The work carried out by managers and instructors of the Soccer School has raised the standards and achieved the result of increasing the number of adhesions, together with the approval for an initiative functional to create a network of relationships with football academies rooted in the territory.

Since 2015, the Genoa Soccer Academy has forged the link with the affiliated clubs with some significant innovations, starting with widespread technical support and an enhancement of visual recognition.

The new model of the GSA is based on a systematic activity in monitoring and supporting affiliates, with the introduction of specific dedicated figures in the technical staff of the youth sector, committed to favoring exchanges and meeting the updates and needs of partners.

A further upgrade is represented by the opportunity for the companies to acquire the new Kappa Sport with the official brand.

Genoa Values ​​Cup

The Genoa Values ​​Cup is an event strongly desired by the Genoa Cricket and Football Club born in 2009, with the aim of entering the Genoese school fabric through multiple activities of different character, creating opportunities for meeting and study, education and fun, in the name of sport and in compliance with the values ​​that regulate it.

The innovative concept of this project is the desire to prepare young people for sporting activity by sharing with them values ​​that will help them grow, first as an individual and then as an athlete and sportsman, taking inspiration from the fundamental principles issued by UEFA.

The Genoa Values ​​Cup represents a training and value reinterpretation of the classic school tournaments for classes; the participating classes of primary and lower secondary schools, public and private, are involved in the months preceding the tournament in training activities that are inspired by the Club’s Value Card. These tests are evaluated by the Organizing Commission, which determines a value ranking by category where the best placed will gain an important advantage during the elimination group stage of the tournament.

Through sporting, individual but above all as a team, children learn to value and accept any diversity, of gender, culture or religion. By acting on all these fronts, it will be easier to educate the adults of tomorrow in values ​​that can strengthen feelings such as brotherhood, loyalty, collaboration, respect for oneself and for others.

The training activities carried out by the young people in recent years have focused on themes and topics that are always current such as: anti-racism, integration, aggregation, fair play, healthy eating, importance of the territory, bullying, doping and disability.

The Ministry of Education, the FIGC, the Provincial School Management, CONI, the Liguria Region and the Municipality of Genoa have sponsored the project in recent years.

Recently the Genoa Values ​​Cup was awarded by the FIGC as the best initiative on the theme “Football and Lesson Hours”.

Genoa Summer Camps

They offer the opportunity for boys and girls to be part of a team, to discover and share the values ​​of the oldest club in Italy.

Sea, hills, mountains, there are many and different solutions to choose from.

Genoa C.F.C. History

Genoa has an extensive history, and they have won the Italian Championship nine times over that history. The first championship was held in 1898, while the most recent one was in 1923–24. Genoa won their first title at that competition. Additionally, they have one victory in the Coppa Italia under their belt. Genoa are the fourth most successful Italian club in terms of the number of championships they have won over the course of their history.

Despite the fact that he was not born in the region of Genoa where the team is based, Gianni Brera (1919–92), who is considered to be the godfather of Italian sports journalism, has always stated that he is a supporter of the team. It is possible that this string of early successes was the impetus for his love that he professed for the team.

Brera even went so far as to give Genoa the nickname of Vecchio Balordo, which translates to “Old Fool” or “Cranky Old One.” Throughout the majority of its post-war existence, Genoa has spent the majority of its time bouncing between Serie A and Serie B, with two brief stints in Serie C along the way.

Stadium

Since 1911, the club’s games have been played in the 36,536-person capacity Stadio Luigi Ferraris for all of their home matches. Since 1946, neighboring rivals Sampdoria have used the stadium at the same time as Juventus.
