Società Sportiva Teramo Calcio is an Italian association football club based in Teramo, Abruzzo. Since the 2014–15 season, the club has played in Serie C, the 3rd tier of Italian football.

History

After several seasons in Serie C1, Teramo had a difficult 2006–07 campaign, finishing in 15th place, a position that forced them to play in the relegation playoffs. The club lost by a two-goal margin, 4–2 on aggregate to the 16th-place team, Ancona and was thus relegated to Serie C2.

In the 2007–08 campaign, the team finished 8th in Serie C2/B, but declare bankruptcy at the end of the season and was removed from the professional leagues.

The team was refounded for the 2008–09 season, and won the league of Promozione Abruzzo A, the seventh tier of Italian football. Teramo continued the movement up the Italian football pyramid the following year, winning the Eccellenza Abruzzo and obtaining promotion to Serie D. In its first season in the division Teramo lost the Lega Pro Seconda Divisione playoff to Rimini Calcio, however, earned direct promotion to the then Italian fourth division by winning the league the following year.

In its first season in Lega Pro Seconda Divisione, Teramo Calcio achieved a promotional playoff to Lega Pro Prima Divisione where it lost in a 2-game showdown against L'Aquila Calcio. In the 2013–14 season, Teramo competed once again in the Lega Pro Seconda Divisione and secured the promotion on 6 April 2014, on a home match against Arzanese.

The following season the white and reds won a historic Lega Pro division title and ascended to Serie B for the first time in their 102 years of history, however, the title was subsequently revoked and promotion was denied due to Teramo's part in the 2015 Italian football scandal[1].
