Società Sportiva Dilettantistica Chieti Calcio Football Club 1922, commonly known as Chieti, is an Italian association football club, based in Chieti, Abruzzo. It competes in the Serie D, the fourth tier of Italian football.
History
Foundation
Chieti was founded in 1922 as Calcio Chieti, with capital of 50 cents.[citation needed] The idea originated from Nicola De Cesare and friends in Villa Comunale. The team started by playing teams in the central Civitella military.[citation needed] Existing club Sport Club Chieti was inactive for long periods, leading to the decision to start Chieti at meeting between the RISS, Novell, and Sport Cub Chieti. The first president was Carlo Massangioli.[citation needed]

The team's colours are green and black.
The choice of black and green Theatines dates to 1919, when the first soccer team representing the City had neither uniforms nor the money to buy them. Instead they found some in a crate from Venice. The pennant team was tweaked over the years.[citation needed] The club was once identified by a crest in the style of AC Milan, then under the leadership of President Antonio Buccilli. They then adopted a pennant depicting two strips (one black and one green) crossing the words "DC 1922" i.e. Chieti Calcio 1922.[citation needed] In 2006, their rudimentary style was reinvented as AS Roma.[vague][citation needed] The last change was made in the summer of 2008 when the previous emblem was added to one side of Achilles horse, the symbol of the city of Chieti.[clarification needed][citation needed]
