The positive collaboration between AU.RA Driving Schools Group and Ravenna Football Club has been ongoing for years. This partnership goes beyond simple sponsorship: it focuses on raising awareness among young people about safe and responsible behavior behind the wheel, regardless of the type of vehicle used.

Thus, after previously focusing on issues related to the use of electric scooters, in spring 2025 AU.RA and Ravenna turned their attention to a broader theme concerning the safe operation of all types of vehicles—from cars to motorcycles, from bicycles to scooters. The program emphasized road safety, taking into account the new regulations of the Highway Code, with particular focus on the risks of inattention, a frequent cause of accidents, and the crucial need to avoid driving (even non-motorized vehicles) under the influence of alcohol.

In recent days, the trainers from AU.RA Gruppo Comunicazione, led by President Yuri Gentilini, conducted several afternoon “lessons” for the young players of the giallorossi club. The sessions took place on three separate occasions, involving the squads of the Under-15, Under-17, and Under-19 teams.

In each session, the meetings—lasting approximately two hours—combined a theoretical segment, during which the main issues related to risky behaviors and lapses in attention on the road were explained, supported by impactful and meaningful videos.

The most engaging part of the session, however, took place on the field at the “Benelli” stadium’s training area: here, the youngsters, in their training gear, experienced using visual sensors that simulate impaired vision from alcohol, with great focus and active participation from all the players.

A night to remember, in true Ravenna FC style. The Partita del Cuore, held on Sunday, June 2 at Stadio Benelli, offered the audience moments of spectacle, sport, and solidarity. The event, strongly promoted by the giallorossi club in support of ADVS Ravenna, drew nearly 1,200 spectators, highlighting the deep connection between the team, the city, and shared values.
On the field, the spotlight was on Ravenna FC’s legendary players, who thrilled fans with nostalgic yet still high-quality play. Among them, Stefan Schwoch stood out with a spectacular brace, including a special volleyed chip assisted by Zauli that earned thunderous applause from the crowd.
The triangular tournament was won by the Tifosi Giallorossi team, who triumphed in both of their matches, including an impressive comeback against the Giallorossi Legends team, igniting the atmosphere in the stands.
Not just football: during the breaks between matches, the audience enjoyed performances by the girls from Lo Zodiaco ASD, whose choreographies inspired by Greek mythology brought elegance and passion to the field, making the evening even more complete and engaging.
The Ravenna FC Youth Sector parade was also met with great applause, a heartfelt moment showcasing the club’s future at its core. During the evening, two young academy players were awarded by Elisa Venturini, assistant director at Mirabilandia, for their dedication and attitude in training, highlighting how commitment and sporting values are recognized and celebrated.
At the conclusion of the event, thanks came from the participating institutions. Monica Dragoni, President of ADVS Ravenna, expressed her gratitude:
“It was a wonderful evening, full of energy and meaning. I sincerely thank Ravenna FC and everyone who contributed to making the event a success. The message about blood donation was delivered loud and clear.”
Also, Ariedo Braida, Vice President of Ravenna FC, highlighted the importance of the initiative:
“We are proud of the public’s response and the participation of so many figures who have written the history of our club. Evenings like this remind us how wonderful and meaningful it is to put football at the service of the community.”
The Partita del Cuore concluded as a resounding success, full of emotion, participation, and shared values. Ravenna FC thanks all the participants and attendees for making this great Giallorossi celebration possible.

“La Partita del Cuore” is approaching, and anticipation is building for the evening of June 2 at Stadio Benelli, where sport, memories, and solidarity will come together in a single major event supporting ADVS Ravenna.

The lineup of participants continues to grow with extraordinary additions. Following the announcements of Dodo Giorgetti, Marino D’Aloisio, Lamberto Zauli, and Beppe Pregnolato, other historic figures of Ravenna football have confirmed their participation: Gianluca Atzori, Krasimir Chomakov, Stefan Schwoch, Riccardo Innocenti, and Stefano Torrisi will don the yellow-and-red colors once again in a festive atmosphere full of shared memories. Joining them will also be the historic Team Manager Emilio Manzani from the Corvetta presidency era, and the esteemed coach Andrea Mandorlini, who will take his place on the bench to coordinate the team.

Alongside them, President Ignazio Cipriani and the members of Ravenna FC’s management will also take to the field, personally joining in to support the cause.

The triangular tournament will feature matches between fans, sponsors, and the club’s staff, while during the intervals there will be a showcase of the Ravenna FC youth sector and spectacular performances by the athletes of Lo Zodiaco ASD, combining rhythmic gymnastics with choreography inspired by Greek mythology.

An evening to be experienced all at once, with hearts on the field and memories firmly rooted in the present. On June 2nd, the Benelli will become the stage for a true giallorossa celebration.

The countdown is on for La Partita del Cuore, the charity event organized by Ravenna FC, scheduled for Monday, June 2, at Stadio Benelli. The triangular match will see Tifosi Giallorossi, Ravenna FC sponsors, and the club staff face off, promising excitement, memorable moments, and strong community participation, with all proceeds donated to ADVS Ravenna.

The stadium gates will open at 7:00 PM, with the first match kick-off scheduled for 8:00 PM.

Adding to the magic of the evening, the Ravenna FC Staff team will feature some true legends of Giallorossi football, heroes of unforgettable chapters in the club’s history: Dodo Giorgetti, Marino D’Aloisio, Lamberto Zauli, and Beppe Pregnolato.
Champions who once made a city dream and who are now donning the Giallorossi colors again for a good cause. And the surprises don’t end there—other great former players may join at the last minute, making the evening even more unforgettable.

During the intervals between matches, the audience will have the chance to enjoy performances by the athletes of Lo Zodiaco ASD, a historic Ravenna association that for over thirty years has been passionately dedicated to rhythmic gymnastics, from beginner levels to high-level competition.
This year, the club has achieved a milestone by gaining access to Serie B, thanks to the outstanding work of the coaches and the Gold sector. With over 250 members aged 3 to 20, Lo Zodiaco will bring to the Benelli Stadium the Silver group in the Open category, performing two routines inspired by Greek mythology—The Amazons and Prometheus—taken from their latest show at the Teatro Alighieri.
Alongside them, the youngest gymnasts will present two hip-hop routines dedicated to Zeus and Athena, creating a unique fusion of sport, dance, and mythological storytelling.

Admission will be possible with a symbolic ticket priced at 5 euros, available in advance at the ADVS collection point at Ravenna Hospital.

A unique opportunity to support blood donation, experience football in a different way, reconnect with former legends, and celebrate local talent.
The giallorosso heart beats stronger than ever: see you at the Benelli!

An evening full of fun, sporting passion, and above all, solidarity. On Sunday, June 2, Stadio Benelli will host La Partita del Cuore, a charity event organized by Ravenna FC, with all proceeds going entirely to ADVS Ravenna, an organization long committed to promoting blood donation in the area.

Starting at 7:00 PM, three special teams will take the field for a triangular match that promises excitement and smiles: the Tifosi Giallorossi, the Sponsor Giallorossi, and the Ravenna FC staff will compete in a spirit of friendship and involvement, united by a single goal: doing good.

What will make the evening even more special is the parade of Ravenna FC’s Youth Sector, a symbol of the future and of the values the club proudly promotes. Other surprises will also be in store, designed to engage the entire audience in a celebration that aims to highlight sport as a tool for unity and solidarity.

The initiative was addressed by the President of ADVS Ravenna, Monica Dragoni, who stated

“I warmly thank Ravenna FC for embracing this wonderful initiative, which on this very day unites the values of the Republic with solidarity. Sport is a symbol of unity and community, and it embraces the gift of blood, a concrete gesture to save lives.”

The General Manager of Ravenna FC, Paolo Scocco, also shared his thoughts: “Our club aims to be a point of reference not only in sports but also socially for the city. La Partita del Cuore is a concrete opportunity to reaffirm how important it is to strengthen our connection with the community and support organizations like ADVS, which work daily for the common good. Combining sport and solidarity on a symbolic day like June 2 is a source of pride for us.”

Entry to the stadium will be possible with a ticket at a symbolic price of 5 euros, available starting next week at the ADVS blood donation center at Ravenna Hospital.

An unmissable event, offering a unique giallorossi evening, with the heart at the center of the field.

The final act is near. Tomorrow, Sunday, May 25, with kickoff at 8:00 PM, Ravenna FC will take the field at Stadio Bruno Benelli to face Tau Altopascio in the Serie D Group D playoff final. This match represents the culmination of an intense season—marked by consistency, ambition, and identity—which the Giallorossi aim to crown in the best possible way, in front of their home fans.

A crowd that will show up: over 2,500 tickets have already been sold in advance, a clear sign of how much the city has embraced the team and believes in the possibility of writing a new chapter of history together.

Ravenna arrives at the match buoyed by their highest league standing, which grants them the home-field advantage and the possibility of celebrating victory even in the event of a draw after extra time. After deservedly overcoming Pistoiese in the semifinals, coach Marchionni’s team is ready to face the final challenge with determination and unity, even while still missing injured players Lo Bosco, Venturini, and Nappello.

They will face a strong opponent in Tau Altopascio, who have had a remarkable season—starting with great momentum and finishing with a respectable fourth place. The Tuscan team has shown both solidity and character, overturning the semifinals against Lentigione on the road, and now arrive at Benelli with a full squad and the determination to complete their campaign.

Beyond sporting prestige, winning the playoffs would also represent a crucial strategic step: it would secure Ravenna a top spot in the ranking for potential repechages into Serie C. This is far from a minor detail, given the uncertainties surrounding the registration of several clubs for the next Lega Pro season.

It will be a true, intense battle between two of the most solid and consistent teams in the group. Ravenna’s task is to bring to the field what they have shown all season: quality, focus, and team spirit. The fans’ role is to turn Benelli into a giallorossi wave, ready to push the team to the very last goal.

The waiting is over: on Sunday, May 19, at 7:00 PM, Ravenna FC will take the field at Bruno Benelli to face Pistoiese in the Serie D Group D playoff semifinal. This is a clash between two of the most prestigious clubs in the division, competing for a spot in the final in a one-off match with a special significance.

Thanks to their higher league standing, the Giallorossi will enjoy home-field advantage and the possibility of advancing even in the event of a draw after 120 minutes. A detail far from negligible in a matchup that promises to be balanced and full of tension.

Ravenna arrives at this fixture after two harmless defeats in the final days of the regular season, but with the determination to turn the page immediately and return to the solidity and brilliance that have characterized the entire season. Coach Marchionni will be without Venturini, Lo Bosco, and Nappello, but he can rely on a motivated, united, and determined squad ready to play all their cards to secure a place in the final. The goal is clear: to win these playoffs and keep alive the hope of a Serie C repechage, a realistic prospect given the exceptional points average this season and the victory in the division’s Coppa Italia.

They will face a Pistoiese side that struggled in the final part of the season but remains a formidable and talented team. The Tuscan side will be without two key players, Maldonado and Mazzei, both suspended, but they welcome back former Giallorossi player Polvani, ready to lead the defensive line.

A night of great football is expected at Benelli, with a crowd ready for a special occasion. Advance ticket sales have already surpassed 1,100, and the box office will open at 5:30 PM for those wishing to join the event at the last minute.

Everything is ready for a match to be lived down to the last second. Ravenna is determined to write a new chapter of its season.
