History
editFounded in 2012 as Resuttana San Lorenzo to represent the eponymous neighbourhood, part of the sixth municipality of Palermo, the club started from the Terza Categoria division, eventually climbing up all the amateur regional divisions of Sicily and finally reaching Eccellenza in 2022. In 2023, the club was renamed Athletic Club Palermo, with the aim to establish itself as the second-biggest club in the city of Palermo, also using black and pink as their official colours and being therefore nicknamed nerorosa (as opposed to Palermo being nicknamed "rosanero").[1]
Stadium
editThe Athletic Club plays its home matches at the Comunale Salvatore Favazza of Terrasini, in the metropolitan city of Palermo, with approximately 1,500 [2]
