Hence the choice of our name which recalls the famous archaeological area of via Prenestina. It came completely natural, therefore, to ask Municipality VI to be able to use the Gabino logo and make it an integral part of our playing shirts to feel, even on the pitch, part of an inclusive reality that brings together the values of sport and the sense of belonging to a wonderful territory that needs to be valorised”.
