History
Foundation
The club was founded in 1921.[1]
Serie D
In the season 2012-13 the team was promoted for the first time, from Eccellenza Marche to Serie D.
In the 2019–20 season, Matelica was promoted to Serie C for the first time in the club's history.
Serie C, merger with Anconitana and restart from amateur leagues
In June 2021, Matelica owner Mauro Canil and Anconitana announced their intention to move towards a merger between the two clubs, the resulting entity being based in Ancona under the temporary denomination of "Ancona-Matelica", with the aim to have it changed to "Ancona" by 2022, pending approval by the Italian Football Federation.[2]
In July 2021, the club was merged with Ancona-Matelica. As part of the merger, all logos and naming rights of Matelica were given away to Prima Categoria club G.S. Corrado Fabiani Matelica, chaired by Sabrina Orlandi, Mauro Canil's wife.[3][4]
