Italy national football C team

Italy national football C teams (Italian: Squadre Rappresentative della Lega Italiana Calcio Professionistico) are the Italy national football team representative teams of Serie C (in the past Lega Pro Prima Divisione and Seconda Divisione). They are controlled by the Lega Italiana Calcio Professionistico and consist of U19, U20 and U21 teams.

The under-20 team is the B team of the Italy national under-20 football team and the U21 team is the C team of the Italy national under-21 football team; they also serve as feeder teams of the main team in the youth teams pyramid.

Some players also capped for the main team after played for the Lega Pro team and some players are called up to the Lega Pro team after appearing for Italy national under-19 football team.

The team also compete against representative teams of Group A, B and C of Seconda Divisione in annual Lega Pro Quadrangular Tournament, however it was cancelled in 2011–12 season, as there are only 4 groups from the two divisions of Lega Pro.

Recently, the regulation defined the team to be exclusive to Serie C owned players; players on loan from Serie A and B were excluded.[1][2]
