Società Sportiva Dilettantistica Acqua e Sapone Calcio a 5 is a futsal club based in Montesilvano, Abruzzo, Italy.

History

In 2000 Pescheto C/5 was founded, an amateur futsal sports association. It was the brainchild of six friends returning from a holiday in Brazil that gave life to a dream they had to bring a team to Città Sant'Angelo.[1] In 2007 this team would merge with City Marina S. Angelo to create ASD Acqua e Sapone Marina CSA.

The team had quick successes from 2002 to 2005 with winning promotion from Serie D, Serie C2, and Serie C1. In 2005/06, their first season in Serie B, the team finished second in their group and missed being promoted through the playoff by not getting past the quarterfinals. In 2006/07 they finished in fourth place and missed out on the playoffs. After the merger in 2007 Acqua e Sapone finished first in their group and earned automatic promotion to Serie A2.

In the 2009/10 season the team excelled and won direct promotion to Serie A. Acqua e Sapone also made their first appearance in a cup final that season by participating in the Final Eight Serie A2 in which they lost in the final to Gruppo Fassina 2-1.

The team's first silverware from the top level came in 2013/14 when they won the Coppa Italia by beating Lazio 3-1 in the final. The next season they then defeated Luparense 6-1 to win the Supercoppa Italiana.
