The club is currently part of the regionally organized amateur Eccellenza league, following two disbandments that led Atletico Catania down to the bottom ranks of national football.

Atletico Catania went on sliding further down, and was again cancelled in 2005, when a group of supporters led by Santino Crisafi founded a new club with the current denomination and registered it to Terza Categoria, the lowest division in Italian football, for the 2005–06 season.

However, little before the beginning of season 2006–07, Atletico Catania won the title of the Sant'Agata li Battiati making them applicable to play in the Prima Categoria.

They completed their first Promozione season in eighth place, playing their home games in the neighbouring town of Aci Bonaccorsi.

They have moved back to Catania for the 2009–10 season, playing at the Campo Comunale "Zia Lisa".
