About Spezia

Spezia Calcio is a professional football club based in La Spezia, Liguria, Italy. Spezia Calcio was founded in 1906 by Swiss banker Hermann Hurni (or Hurny in some documents), who played for Crystal Palace’s first amateur teams in London during his time there as a student. He played for Crystal Palace again in 1909.

Spezia’s first game kit, light blue and white, was a second-hand Crystal Palace amateur kit donated to Hurny when he returned to La Spezia. In 1911, following the decision by Alberto Picco and others to honor Pro Vercelli as an example of a small team capable of beating the big ones, a plain white jersey with black shorts and black socks was adopted, which is still worn today.

Spezia Home Stadium

The club hosts its matches at the 10,336-capacity Stadio Alberto Picco, which has been the club’s home stadium since 1919. For the 2020–21 season, Spezia was forced to play many of its home matches at the Stadio Cesena’s Dino Manuzzi, which has a capacity of just under 24,000, because his home stadium failed to meet Serie A requirements.

Spezia Kit

The official colors of the Spezia club are black and white. The home kit traditionally consists of a plain white jersey with black trim, black shorts, and black socks. White shorts and socks are also commonly worn in case of team matches with opponents. Away kits usually feature an all-black design for the shirts, shorts, and socks, or the reverse of the home kit, but can also feature a variety of different colors, often changing each season. The club’s nickname is Gli Aquilotti (The Eagles).
