Unione Polisportiva Comunale Tavagnacco, also known as Graphistudio Tavagnacco for sponsorship reasons, is an Italian women's football club from Tavagnacco, Friuli-Venezia Giulia.

History

Founded in 1989, UPC Tavagnacco reached in 2001 the Serie A, where it has played since.[1] After struggling to avoid relegation in its first years in Serie A, the club has joined the championship's elite in recent years, ranking between the 2nd and 4th positions since 2007. In 2011 Tavagnacco was the league's runner up and it also reached the national cup's final, which was lost 0–3 to Torres Calcio. It consequently qualified for the first time for the UEFA Champions League,[2] where it was defeated in the Round of 32 by Swedish champion LdB Malmö.[3]
