Stadio Nicola Ceravolo
Stadio Nicola Ceravolo is a multi-purpose stadium in Catanzaro, Italy. The stadium was built in 1919, and it is one of the oldest in Italy.
It holds 14,650 people, which makes it the third-largest stadium by capacity in Calabria. It is currently the home of US Catanzaro 1929.
In 1989 the stadium was renamed in honour of Nicola Ceravolo, who had died the previous year and was an influential former president of US Catanzaro for twenty years.
The stadium Nicola Ceravolo is set on a plot of land in the locality of Corallo, near the slopes of the mountain Spezzano. Its use dates back to the early decades of the twentieth century, when, coinciding with the beginning of the first world war, it was used as a concentration camp for prisoners of war. At the end of the war the plant, which was known as "Piazza d'Armi", began to be used for training troops stationed in Catanzaro, then the headquarters of the Division Command and the 19th Infantry Regiment.
In the 1920s, the ever-growing interest for sports, particularly for football, determined the adaptation of the structure to the new needs of the citizens. In October 1924, after about seven months of work, the new sports field, named the "Divisional Stadium", was presented with a successful inauguration. Owned by the 21st Division of the Military Division.[citation needed]
Soon after III Congresso Sportivo Calabrese happened here, which ended with the representation of hundreds of athletes divided into various sports disciplines.
A special football tournament was held, called Cup city of Catanzaro and Cosenza, in which three groups took part: Fortitudo Cosenza, the Audace of Catanzaro and the Nuovo Reggio Football Club. It was the Reggina team that won the trophy by beating the Audace in the final by 3–0.[citation needed]
The new "Divisional Stadium", later known as the "Military Stadium", was equipped with a leveled playing field, flanked by a "war path", an elevated runway and graceful wooden benches, well furnished inside. During the twenties, the plant will be used mainly by the military for their operational purposes, but also by sports companies with appropriate authorization.[citation needed]
