Stadio Carlini-Bollesan

Stadio Carlini-Bollesan, Rugby union stadium in Genoa, Italy.

Stadio Giacomo Carlini – Marco Bollesan is a multi-sport stadium in Genoa with a rectangular 140x60 m synthetic rugby pitch and 5,700 seats. It also holds Liguria's only velodrome, a two-level indoor shooting range with 9 firearm and 9 air-compressed positions, and fencing halls used by local clubs.

Construction began in 1912 with funding from Nafta, the Italian subsidiary of Shell, and the stadium opened on 26 November 1927 as the Stadio della Nafta. It hosted Italy's rugby union match against Catalonia on 25 March 1935, won 5-3, and another against Portugal on 7 May 1967, won 6-3. After the war it became the training ground of the newly formed Sampdoria football club.

The stadium is named after Giacomo Carlini, a Genoese athlete, and Marco Bollesan, a CUS Genova Rugby captain and later national coach who died in 2021. The city council approved the joint naming unanimously on 4 May 2021. The CUS Genova Rugby club has managed the ground since 2014 and plays its home matches there.

The stadium sits on a rectangular 140x60-metre plot and holds 5,700 seats, with access provided for wheelchair users. The press room, with about 50 places, is still in place from the years when major football matches were played here. The fencing halls and the two-level indoor shooting range lie beneath the stands.

The indoor shooting range of the Interforze di Genova occupies two floors beneath the stands, reached by four tunnels, with nine firing positions and nine for compressed air. The fencing halls of Cesare Pompilio and Circolo della Spada Liguria also sit inside the stadium.
