Treviso F.C. 1993)
Treviso Foot-Ball Club 1993 is a football club based in Treviso, Italy. The club was formed in 1909, and refounded in 1993, and currently plays in Italian Serie B division.
Treviso official colours are light blue and white.
Before 2005, Treviso FBC never played on the top flight of Italian football, always taking part to the national lower division, from Serie B to Serie D, with a sixth place in the 1950-1951 Serie B table, under head coach Nereo Rocco, as its best result. In 1993 the club was cancelled because of financial troubles but admitted to Serie D. The club experienced a remarkable line of three consecutive promotions from 1994 to 1997 under coach Giuseppe Pillon which brought Treviso back to Serie B, over 40 years after its last appearance in the second-highest Italian league. Treviso relegated to Serie C1 in 2001, but returned to Serie B in 2003. In 2005, Pillon returned to Treviso and the team gained a respectful fifth place and a spot in the promotion playoff, then lost to Perugia. However, in August 2005, after both Genoa and Torino were relegated out of Serie A, respectively for fraud and financial troubles, Treviso and Ascoli were arbitrarily promoted in Serie A as a replacement.
In 2005-2006, Treviso played in Italian Serie A for the first and, as of today, only time since its foundation. The team was coached by Ezio Rossi, then replaced by Alberto Cavasin. For the first Serie A appearance of Treviso, the team was initially forced play their home games at the Stadio Euganeo, in the close city of Padua, because of the inadequacy of its home stadium, considered inadequate to Serie A matches for both security and capacity by the FIGC. However, a special amendment was approved by the Italian parliament for allowing Treviso to play at its home.
Unfortunately, Treviso's Serie A stay was short-lived. Last-place dwellers for nearly the entire 2005-06 season, they were officially relegated to Serie B for the '06-'07 campaign following a 3-1 loss to Messina on April 9, 2006. It appeared that Treviso would avoid relegation despite finishing 20th as a result of the Serie A match-fixing scandal, however, they were eventually placed back in Serie B on July 25, 2006 when SS Lazio and ACF Fiorentina's penalties were reduced by the Italian appeals court and the teams were placed back in Serie A.
