[edit] History

The club Modica Calcio was founded in 1932 and has a long history in Italian non-league football. Modica played in Serie C2/C during the 2005-06, but was immediately relegated after playoffs, and then cancelled because of financial irregularities. Successively, a new property bought Eccellenza club A.S.D. Pol. Libertas Acate from the neighbouring city of Acate; the new club, commonly referred to as Libertas Acate-Modica, won the Round B of Eccellenza Sicily league being therefore promoted to Serie D. The club was expected to reassume the original denomination from the following season, but this change has yet to be effective.
