US Catanzaro 1929 is a football club based in Catanzaro, Calabria, currently competing in Serie B, Italy's second division. Their home is the Stadio Nicola Ceravolo. Founded in 1929, the club's colors are red and yellow, earning them the nickname *Aquile del Sud* (Eagles of the South). Catanzaro's history is marked by a long pursuit of top-flight football, which they achieved in the 1970s and 80s. Their golden era was undoubtedly the late 70s/early 80s, when, led by players like Claudio Ranieri (as a defender), they not only reached Serie A but also finished a historic 7th in 1981, qualifying for the UEFA Cup—a monumental achievement for a southern club. The modern era has seen the club languish in the lower professional leagues until a recent resurgence, culminating in promotion to Serie B in 2023. The current team, built on a solid defensive foundation and attacking flair, aims to consolidate its place in the second tier and dream of a return to Serie A. The passionate fan base fills the Ceravolo, creating a vibrant and noisy support that drives the team forward. Catanzaro is a symbol of Calabrian pride and footballing ambition.
