All 48 participating clubs

Official first-round names from the FIR calendar, grouped by competition. Each side has 11 opponents, played home and away.

Promotion to Serie A Elite and relegation

The path to the title is different from Serie A Elite: merit-based and territorial qualifiers meet in the final phase.

Territorial play-off

The leading four clubs across the territorial group rankings enter one-leg semifinals on 9 May 2027. The winners contest the territorial final on 16 May.

Promotion semifinals

On 30 May 2027, Girone 1’s first-placed side meets the territorial play-off winner. Girone 1’s second and third-placed clubs meet in the other semifinal.

Final and division changes

The promotion final is scheduled for 6 June 2027; the winner enters Serie A Elite. Two teams move from the territorial group tier into Girone 1; the two bottom sides in each territorial group are relegated to Serie B (six total).

FIR ↗

How the 2026/27 competition works

Four parallel round-robin groups feed into one promotion route.

Clubs

Each group contains 12 clubs. Teams face their 11 group rivals twice for 22 matches per club.

Groups

Different groups are not one 48-team league table. Girone 1 and the territorial groups have separate tables and sporting consequences.

Group rounds

All 22 rounds and 132 matches per group are now available in the Match Centre. Select a round or a club; FIR remains the primary reference for fixture amendments.

Serie A Maschile: common questions

Is Serie A Maschile the same as Serie A Elite?

No. Serie A Maschile is below Serie A Elite. Its promotion final winner earns entry to Serie A Elite in the following season.

How many teams and groups are there?

There are 48 clubs in four groups of 12: one merit-based and three territorial.

How many matches does a club play?

Each club has 22 regular-season fixtures, one home and one away against each of its 11 group rivals.

Why are the standings blank?

The competition has not started as of 13 October 2026. Club lists are alphabetical and must not be mistaken for ranking predictions.

Where can I find all fixtures?

All 528 fixtures across the four groups appear in the Match Centre. Select a group, round or club to browse; the original FIR PDF is also linked for confirmation.
