History

After starting its activity at youth levels, the team was granted the access to play the women's Eccellenza (fourth tier of Italian women's football). In their first season, Sampdoria were in the second position and lost the final of the promotion-play offs.[1] The club was established on 15 June 2021 by acquiring the sports title of a San Gimignano-based team Florentia San Gimignano S.S.D. playing in Serie A.[2][3] On 7 July 2021, Antonio Cincotta was hired as team coach.[4] Sampdoria's first Serie A match was on 29 August when they won 2–1 against Lazio, Ana Lucía Martínez e Yoreli Rincón were the first two goalscorer of Sampdoria's history.[5] The first Sampdoria president was Massimo Ferrero. However, after his arrest in December 2021, Marco Lanna became the new president of the company.[6]
