Feedback In the past, from 1904 since 1912, had been the 2nd level of Italian local regional tournaments in which main teams used to field apprentices and reserves.
This new rule was set during the July 1912 federal annual meeting so that this category changed name into Promozione because winning teams were awarded "promotion" to upper level.
This category name too was given to the second level of youth tournaments in 1919 when created by a new local and independent federation called U.L.I.C.
