ITALIA La prima società italiana di ginnastica che ha dato i natali allo sport in Italia fu la Reale Società Ginnastica di Torino. Fra le più antiche società sportive del mondo, nacque nel 1844 da un'idea del famoso ginnasta svizzero Rodolfo Obermann, chiamato a Torino sotto il regno di re Carlo Alberto per insegnare l'educazione fisica agli allievi dell'Accademia Militare. Nel 1848 fu concesso da Carlo Alberto quello che sarebbe divenuto il segno distintivo della Società: il sigillo di Amedeo VI di Savoia. Forgiato nel 1373, rappresenta la difesa del bene contro il male, vi è raffigurato il grifone o leone LA “SOCIETA’GINNASTICA FERRARA” sabaudo e in mezzo campeggia il motto "je atans mo anstre" Nell'anno 1879 per volontà di Alfonso (Tendo al mio astro). Tale dono fu attribuito alla Società Manarini si gettarono le basi per la Ginnastica di Torino, elevata al titolo di Reale nel 1933, quale fondazione della società. Da allora sono fregio distintivo per i meriti acquisiti dalla stessa "nel prezioso passati 125 anni e tra alterne fortune la lavoro svolto a favore della gioventù".

Oggi la P.G.F. è l'unica Associazione Sportiva ferrarese affiliata alla Federazione Ginnastica d'Italia che svolge regolarmente attività di ginnastica artistica maschile e femminile,partecipando con i propri atleti alle più importanti competizioni nazionali.

The result we picked up at Carlisle United on Saturday felt like more than just three points due to the manner in which it was achieved and the character shown by the players to come from behind in such dramatic circumstances. As a team, we have developed a habit this season of battling back in games, and for the second successive Saturday, I was incredibly proud of our determination to keep going against strong opposition and produce a hard-earned result. I have said throughout the season that we have a young squad full of potential and our ability to record a win at Carlisle, along with the draw at Tranmere Rovers the previous weekend, shows we are progressing in the right way. Of course, we were all disappointed with the home defeat against Barrow in the middle of those results, but to respond so quickly in a difficult fixture is testament to the players and their hunger to put things right. No-one typifies that mentality more than Carl Piergianni who, despite being limited in his game-time in recent weeks, came off the bench to register an outstanding second-half performance at Brunton Park before scoring the goal that made sure of the win.

  • A Complete History of Southport Football Club
    A COMPLETE HISTORY OF SOUTHPORT FOOTBALL CLUB Compiled By Rob Urwin Southport FC Programme Editor 1 IN THE BEGINNING It was Thursday 12th November 1881 when Southport played its first Association Football match. Although association football had been played in the town's private schools in the late 1870’s the original Southport Football club began as a rugby team. The 'handling code” had been played competitively since 1872 in Southport and there were teams under the titles of Southport Olympic, Southport Wasps, Southport Hornets and The Grasshoppers. Southport Football Club, who had been in existence for some seasons, arranged rugby fixtures for 1881-82. After some heavy defeats, the last recorded being on 15th October when Wavertree prevailed, the club switched to association football. On 12th November, six of that team lined up when Southport played Bootle “second” in their first match under Association Rules. Bootle took the lead but Jackson shot “a capital goal to equalise” The Southport team was S Platt (Goal), B Pidduck, JG Howard (Backs) P.Edwards, F Jackson and TB Burnett(Captain) (Halves), JR Topliss and F Holden (Rights) W Platt (Centre) J Melross and J. Sykes (Lefts). The Southport Visiter commented “that the team will no doubt render a good account of themselves when they get over the difficulty of hands off and forget the rugby rules” The following week Southport lost by “one goal and one disputed goal to nil” at Burscough. Most of the club’s rugby players made the switch to the “round ball game” and Dalby, Irving and Morris were also lured over to soccer from Southport Hornets.

  • Macclesfield Town Football Club Return to the Non-League Scene Chapter Four
    MACCLESFIELD TOWN FOOTBALL CLUB RETURN TO THE NON-LEAGUE SCENE CHAPTER FOUR Season 2015-2016 Win One, Lose One BY GEOFFREY KNIGHTS OVERVIEW A season filled with inconsistency saw the team falling short of their performance during 2014-15 when they played themselves into the play-off positions for much of the time. During the 2015-16 season almost the same number of matches were won as lost with the team in the bottom half of the table until November, but with an improved performance over the following two months, the team worked their way into the top half of the table with a play-off position in reach. However, after the win on 2 January 2016 no further league victories were achieved until 26 March then making it difficult to achieve a play-off place. In the end, a total of 66 points earned the Silkmen 10th position in the Vanarama National League. Additional funding for the playing budget was provided through a generous donation by an anonymous donor, a proportion of which had to be matched by supporter raised funds, which they did successfully. Attendances for home league matches held up averaging 1598 (1613 season 2015-15) although within this figure the number of home supporters in comparison to the previous season reduced by an average of 103 per match. Off the field of play the financial position of the club continued to improve helped by additional financial contributions from the Super Silk Lotto, the Silkmen Supporters’ Trust and local businessmen although there remains some historic debt. OFF-FIELD People There were several changes in the personnel serving the club: Chris Edge – replaced Dave Towns as the Stadium Manager who had stepped down from this position.
