In 1936, just one year after promotion to the top division, the club refounded and begins participation in Serie D.

For the next 40 or so years the club yoyoed between the third and fifth divisions. In the 1989-90 season, they achieved promotion to Serie C2 (fourth division), but they were unable to promote due to financial difficulties.
