History

edit

The stadium, known today as "Stadio Pasqualino Ferrante", was built sometime during the early 20th century and played host to original tenants Pro Piedimonte (founded in 1928). Murals of past players and staff adorn the exterior walls of the stadium. In addition to championing the club's accomplishments, there is a separate mural dedicated to the country itself, celebrating the nation's footballing achievements at FIFA's 1934 (Italy), 1938 (France), 1982 (Spain), and 2006 (Germany) World Cups.

edit

In 2012, Stadio Comunale was renamed 'Stadio Comunale Pasqualino Ferrante di Piedimonte Matese'; to honour the town's municipal councillor, Pasqualino Ferrante.[2]

The stadium's occupants from 2012 to 2020 were Tre Pini Matese; and F.W.P. Matese from 2013 to 2020. In addition to the men's team, the stadium hosted women's matches for Tre Pini Matese Femminile.
