Centro Tecnico Federale di Coverciano, headquarters of the technical sector of the Italian football federation (FIGC)
Centro Tecnico Federale di Coverciano is a training facility for Italy's national football teams located in Florence. It features multiple training pitches, a hotel with fifty-four rooms, a restaurant serving up to one hundred fifty meals, offices for football organizations, and a museum displaying trophies and historical photographs from Italian football history.
The center was officially opened on November 6, 1958 and has served as a training ground for Italy's national football teams ever since. In 2019, the facility underwent modernization to better support the needs of teams and staff.
The center is named after Luigi Ridolfi, a local nobleman and Vice President of the Italian Football Federation who supported the project. It reflects Italy's deep connection to football and draws young players who dream of one day representing the national team.
The center is located in a quiet area outside the busy city and is easily accessible. Visitors can explore the museum, watch training sessions, or view the well-maintained grounds throughout the property.
The center houses offices for Italian football associations and regional football organizations, making it an administrative hub for Italian football. Beyond training facilities, it serves as a venue for seminars and gatherings where experts from Italy and abroad share ideas about tactics and training methods.
