History

In 2020, Ternana established its own women's football team, starting in the Eccellenza championship and subsequently being reinstated in the Serie C championship to complete its roster for the 2020-2021 season. [1]

Ahead of the 2022-2023 season, Ternana officially acquired the sporting title of Pink Sport Time, a team based in Bari, for participation in the Serie B championship. One of the key figures of the Apulian team's staff, Isabella Cardone, joined the Umbrian club as head of the women's sector, while Lorenzo Vergani was appointed head of the Rossoverde women's youth system. [2] Finally, Fabio Melillo was appointed as the team's new coach, [2] remaining with him for two seasons and coming close to promotion to Serie A, until his sudden death on 6 July 2024. [3]

For the 2024-2025 season, the team was entrusted to the new coach Antonio Cincotta, [4] who in his first year with the Fere led the team to victory in the Serie B championship with four days to spare, and therefore to the first promotion to the top flight in the club's history. [5] [6]
