History

edit

After starting its activity at youth levels, the team was granted the access to play the women's Eccellenza [it] (fourth tier of Italian women's football). In their first season, Sampdoria were in the second position and lost the final of the promotion-play offs.[2] The club was established on 15 June 2021 by acquiring the sports title of a San Gimignano-based team Florentia San Gimignano S.S.D. playing in Serie A.[3][4] On 7 July 2021, Antonio Cincotta was hired as team coach.[5] Sampdoria's first Serie A match was on 29 August when they won 2–1 against Lazio, Ana Lucía Martínez e Yoreli Rincón were the first two goalscorer of Sampdoria's history.[6] The first Sampdoria president was Massimo Ferrero. However, after his arrest in December 2021, Marco Lanna became the new president of the company.[7]
