FIGC registration number of the club is 63,519.[4] The club spent entire history in the Piedmont - Aosta Valley divisions of the Lega Nazionale Dilettanti.
History
[edit | edit source]The club was founded in 1975. The club was based in another town, Celle Enomondo, and known as several other names:[5] ILSA C.D.C.,[6] U.S. Cellese,[6] A.S. Celle Vaglierano[6] and A.C. Celle General Cab.[7][nb 2]
The club was promoted to Prima Categoria for the first time in 2009,[5][6] as the winner of Group P of Seconda Categoria Piedmont - Aosta Valley. Group P was composed of clubs entirely from the Province of Asti.[9]
In 2010 the club was promoted to Promozione Piedmont - Aosta Valley division,[6][non-primary source needed] despite finishing fifth in the Prima Categoria Piedmont - Aosta Valley Group F.[10] At the same time the club was renamed to A.S.D. Colline Alfieri Don Bosco,[nb 1] as a collaboration with another sport club A.S.D. Don Bosco Asti.[6][non-primary source needed][nb 3] The club also relocated its registered office to San Damiano d'Asti at the same time.[7]
A.S.D. Colline Alfieri Don Bosco promoted to Eccellenza Piedmont-Aosta Valley from Promozione Piedmont - Aosta Valley in 2016 as a repêchage.[5][12][13] The club also played in the Eccellenza division in the 2013–14 and 2014–15 seasons. The club hired Mario Benzi as head coach in November 2014.[14]
The club was renamed to "A.S.D. Alfieri Asti" in 2017.[15][16] At the same time, the major club of the city, Asti Calcio F.C. (ex-A.C.D. Asti) folded.[17] The club also promoted youth team coach Davide Montanarelli as the head coach of the first team.[18]
The club finished as the joint-runner-up of the Group B of Eccellenza Piedmont - Aosta Valley division in the 2018–19 season.[19] However, the club lost the promotion play-off against the other runner-up, Canelli S.D.S.[20] Both teams also from the province of Asti and that match was the fifth provincial derby of the teams in that season.[21]
In 2019, Alfieri Asti was renamed again, dropping the word "Alfieri".[11][22]

The club also used Campo Sandro Salvadore[nb 4][24][29] as well as Campo Comunale di Celle Enomondo, on 9 Strada Pozzo, Celle Enomondo as football fields.[24][30][31]
