Once again for the 22-23 season, Palermo is renewing its commitment to developing a circuit of football schools affiliated with the rosanero club, this year also extending the borders to the other Sicilian provinces, in the name of sharing good sporting practices and rooting in the territory.
Active in Palermo, Agrigento, Siracusa, Messina and Trapani, there are 14 sports associations that this year make up the network of Palermo FC Official Schools, under the supervision of the Palermo Youth Sector, led by Fabrizio Giambona.
These are:
ASD VIS PALERMO (PA)
SSD ACADEMY RIBOLLA (PA)
ASD BUON PASTORE (PA)
Polisportiva CALCIO SICILIA (PA)
Polisportiva MUFARA POLIZZI ASD (PA)
AS Città di PETRALIA SOPRANA (PA)
Polisportiva Dilettantistica Città di PETRALIA SOTTANA (PA)
ASD POLISPORTIVA CASTELLANA (PA)
ASD ORATORIO SS. CIRO E GIORGIO (PA)
ASD CASTELVETRANO-SELINUNTE (TP)
ASD Scuola Calcio SANGIOVANNESE (AG)
ASD SC COSTA GAIA ADELKAM (TP)
ASCD NUOVA RINASCITA (Patti-ME)
ASD BLUE LAND (SR)
The collaboration has the aim of developing synergies capable of giving greater impetus and effectiveness to the respective projects to enhance the youth sectors, to create excellent football schools in which to nurture local talent.
Each affiliated company will have the students enrolled in the "Palermo FC Official School" wear exclusively clothing distinguished by the traditional pink/black colors and the "Palermo FC Official School" logo. Palermo FC will guarantee the affiliated company supervision and technical-organizational support in the management of the "Palermo FC Official School" through the scheduling of periodic meetings and other activities, making the professionalism of its collaborators available to help improve and make the functioning of the “Palermo Official School” more efficient.
At the end of the sporting season, Palermo FC will have the right to enroll the athletes who will be deemed most deserving in their youth formations, exercising a pre-emption and thus guaranteeing the enhancement of talents in the area.
Furthermore, thanks to the agreement, the staff and young athletes of the affiliated schools will be guests of Palermo FC in the home matches of the rosanero at the Barbera.
