Carpi F.C. 1909


Carpi Football Club 1909 are an Italian football club located in Carpi, Emilia-Romagna. They currently play in Lega Pro Seconda Divisione. Their colours are white and red.

The club was founded in the summer of 1909 by local student Adolfo Fanconi as Jucunditas (Latin for "gaiety"), and changed their denomination to Associazione Calcio Carpi a few years later. Starting from the 1930s, they mostly played between Serie C and Serie D. Carpi achieved their best result in 1997, a third place under coach Luigi De Canio which allowed them to play the Serie B promotion playoffs then lost to Monza. The club was cancelled in 2000 following relegation to Serie D and subsequent bankruptcy; a new club, named Calcio Carpi, was therefore admitted to Eccellenza. The club assumed the current denomination in 2002, following promotion to Serie D.
