Serie A is the top division of the Italian Football League, the highest football league in Italy. Italian mobile phone company TIM is the main sponsor, so the official name is Serie A TIM.
The division consists of twenty clubs since the 2004-05 season, with each team competing against each other team twice, round-robin style, for a total of 38 matches per season. The bottom three clubs in the league table are relegated to Serie B.
Serie A, as it is structured today, began in 1929. From 1898 to 1929 the competition was organised into regional groups. No title was awarded in 1927 after Torino were stripped of the championship by the Italian Football Federation (FIGC). Torino were declared champions in the 1948-49 season following a plane crash near the end of the season in which nearly the entire team was killed.
The Serie A Championship title is often referred to as the Scudetto (small shield) because the winning team will bear a small coat of arms with the Italian tricolour on their uniform in the following season. The most successful league club is Juventus F.C. with 27 championships, followed by A.C. Milan (17), Internazionale (13) and Genoa C&FC (9). For every ten titles won, clubs are allowed to wear a golden star above their club badge; so Juventus has two stars, while Milan and Internazionale have one star each.
In 2006 the Serie A league was shaken by a match-fixing scandal. Juventus F.C., A.C. Milan, S.S. Lazio and ACF Fiorentina were put under trial, along with the referee designators and league managers. A first grade trial took away the last two titles from Juventus, put Milan out of European cups, and sent Juventus, Lazio and Fiorentina to Serie B.[1] All four clubs have indicated their intention to appeal the judgement.
