History

The club was founded in 1929 and refounded in 1958.

It was promoted to Serie D from Eccellenza (sixth tier) in 2007–08, and finished its first Serie D campaign with a second place in the Girone I, behind Siracusa. The club then enjoyed a very successful campaign in the subsequent playoff phase, ending as runners-up behind Nocerina and being subsequently picked to fill a vacancy in the fully professional Lega Pro Seconda Divisione.

The club also competed in the 2009–10 Coppa Italia as Serie D playoff runners-up, and surprisingly defeated Lega Pro Prima Divisione side Rimini (who were relegated from Serie B only one month earlier) in a 2–1 away win. Vico Equense were then defeated in the second round to Serie B outfit Lecce in a 4–0 win for the opposite side.

In summer 2010 after the relegation from Lega Pro Seconda Divisione it does not join 2010–11 Serie D and restarded from Prima Categoria Campania getting the immediate promotion to Promozione Campania. In the next season it was admitted to Eccellenza Campania after repechage.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    “America is, therefore the land of the future, where, in the ages that lie before us, the burden of the World’s history shall reveal itself. It is a land of desire for all those who are weary of the historical lumber-room of Old Europe.”
    —Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)

    “In history an additional result is commonly produced by human actions beyond that which they aim at and obtain—that which they immediately recognize and desire. They gratify their own interest; but something further is thereby accomplished, latent in the actions in question, though not present to their consciousness, and not included in their design.”
    —Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)

    “In the history of the United States, there is no continuity at all. You can cut through it anywhere and nothing on this side of the cut has anything to do with anything on the other side.”
    —Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)
