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:
“All history attests that man has subjected woman to his will, used her as a means to promote his selfish gratification, to minister to his sensual pleasures, to be instrumental in promoting his comfort; but never has he desired to elevate her to that rank she was created to fill. He has done all he could to debase and enslave her mind; and now he looks triumphantly on the ruin he has wrought, and say, the being he has thus deeply injured is his inferior.”
—Sarah M. Grimke (1792–1873)
“Social history might be defined negatively as the history of a people with the politics left out.”
—G.M. (George Macaulay)
“Let it suffice that in the light of these two facts, namely, that the mind is One, and that nature is its correlative, history is to be read and written.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
