Abstract
In January 1982, “Calciopiù: il settimanale sportivo della Toscana” was born in Florence. Its pages, initially dedicated to AC Fiorentina and other sports, soon became the most accurate analysis of all amateur and youth football in the region, with hundreds of tables, articles and comments every Tuesday. It is one of the first newspapers in Italy to dedicate itself exclusively to this sector, a privileged observation point not only on “minor” football but also on the social transformations connected to it. The article intends to outline the profile of this particular relationship between “minor” football and the media, which has lasted for over forty years.
