Youth and community

Our heritage creates opportunities.

Passing on a story also means giving the next generation the tools to write their own.

THE NEXT GENERATION

Learning through football. Growing together.

A vision that brings together quality education and coaching, care for each individual and access to opportunities. These are the foundations of a team.

Growing through football

A place to match their ambitions.

We envisage a programme with qualified coaches, well-kept facilities and an educational programme developed with families. Training means learning to work together, respect others and stay committed.

Beyond the pitch

Developing minds. Nurturing futures.

Learning, meeting people and exchanging ideas with those who have been part of Catania’s football history. We want to create learning opportunities where football helps young people discover their abilities and choose their own path.

  • Education
  • Schools
  • Bringing generations together

A pitch of their own

Room to play. Space to grow.

We want to create a football pitch dedicated to the next generation, with a small stand where families and the community can support them as they grow. A place to train, meet and learn to work and grow together, giving our educational vision a physical home. The project is still to be developed, with the resources and partnerships needed to bring it to life.

  • Families and community
  • A project in development

Talent needs opportunity.

The Catania Heritage Foundation Project combines the preservation of football heritage with a vision for sport and education. We want to create opportunities where sport, culture and a sense of belonging help young people grow, with families and the local community in mind.

01

Sport and education

Our vision brings together football, education and personal development. We aim to develop activities with qualified coaches that put each individual first, with an emphasis on respect, learning and growing together.

02

Bringing generations together

We want to bring younger generations into contact with those who have first-hand experience of the game. Meeting people from Catania’s football history, hearing their stories and talking with them can make shared memories a source of learning.

03

Reducing barriers

Bursaries for sporting activities, transport support and shared equipment are among the measures the project aims to develop to make sport more accessible. These programmes will require dedicated resources and clear participation criteria.

04

Schools, neighbourhoods and community

Working with schools, associations and sports organisations is the starting point for educational and cultural initiatives. We want to bring people together to discover their city, take part in its life and feel included.
