History
The club representing the town of Castellammare di Stabia in the Province of Naples can be traced back to 19 March 1907[1], when Weiss, the Romano brothers and Pauzano, founded the club as Stabia Sporting Club.[2] Originally it was a sporting club that participated in fencing, cycling, running, swimming and rowing.
By 1911, the footballing section of the club first started activity. The first officially reported game took place on 12 February 1911 against a team from Torre Annunziata, which is around four miles away. The match itself took place on the field of "le Montagnelle" near Boscotrecase, it finished 3–0 to Stabia[2]. This was reported in the Neapolitan daily paper "Il Mattino".
Stabia played local games at this point, a notable 0–0 draw was achieved against the more famous Naples on 1 February 1914, the squad that day included; Dell’Aquila, Schettino, Celoro, De Rosa, Laugeri (captain), Amato, Weiss, Pauzano, Romano I°, Romano II° and Cappa.[3] Around this period Stabia also played a match against the crew of English ship HMS Black Prince, with the English winning 11–1.[3]
Stabia enters the league
During 1916, Stabia entered into league competitions for the first time. They were entered into the old Terza Category (today's equivalent is Serie C), Stabia reached the semi-finals before losing 5–1 to Campanian rivals Savoia. Play was halted for World War I, but after it in 1919 the club was refounded thanks largely to Vincenzo Bonifacio. The first game after refounding was a friendly against a team of English sailors who called themselves War Lion, Stabia were victorious, winning the game 6–0. In Castellammare di Stabia a club was founded during August 1919, called Sport Club War, this was merged with Stabia S.C. by 1920.
Stabia were entered into the Italian Football Championship 1921–22 in the Confederazione Calcistica Italiana variation, here they competed against the top clubs from the Campania region. The club finished 6th out of seven clubs, the most memorable result of which was a 4–0 victory away against Salernitana. They returned the following season in 1922–23, where the Campania section was down to five teams; they finished 3rd in their region, behind Savoia and Internaples, thus meaning they did not go any further in the competition that season.
Around this period Scarselli, Coppola and Pausano obtained the land for Stabia where the Stadio Romeo Menti would much later be built. After playing at the top level of the Italian Championship, they spent some time in the Seconda Categoria and then in 1929 they dropped down to the third level of Italian football. Here they bounced between the third level and the amateurs.
The 1936–37 season was a successful one for the club, they went through the season undefeated and won the Prima Divisione, the Coppa di Natale and the Direttoriwhich waso Regionale; the latter of achieved with a 5–1 victory over Casertana. Around this period, Stabia joined the organization Ludi Fascisti Stabiesi, the president was the Amilcare Sciarretta, a civil employee of the Banca d'Italia.
