Eboli Summer Cup "Angelo Vive"

A summer tournament born from a memory

The Eboli Summer Cup "Angelo Vive" has become one of the most anticipated and well-attended sporting events of the summer in Eboli, a town in the Piana del Sele area of the province of Salerno, in Campania. The event has been held for years in synergy with the Angelo Vive Association, whose commitment, affectionately supported by the Caprio family, has allowed an initiative born in memory of Angelo to grow into a symbol of closeness, friendship, and shared values.

The result is an event that goes far beyond a simple summer tournament: on the evenings of late June and July, the pitch fills with teams, families, and fans, and sport becomes a tool for social inclusion, community building, and growth for the entire town.

Where it takes place: Polisportiva Feldi

The event's headquarters is the Polisportiva Feldi Eboli complex on via Fontanelle. The facility, established in 2006 following the renovation of local sports grounds, features an 8-a-side football pitch, a 5-a-side football pitch, and two clay tennis courts, and serves as the home of the Feldi football school. This is where all the tournament evenings are concentrated, from the group stage draws to the finals.

The disciplines: five-a-side football and green volley

The heart of the Summer Cup is the five-a-side football tournament, the event's traditional format, played in group stages during the evening hours when the temperature in the Piana del Sele finally becomes bearable. Alongside the football, the novelty of green volley—volleyball played on grass—has been added, broadening the participant base and attracting a new audience to the pitch.

• Five-a-side football — the main competition, with group stages and a final phase
• Green volley — the grass volleyball tournament, a discipline introduced in the 2026 edition
• Evenings open to the public — night matches with spectators of all ages

Constantly growing numbers

The progress of the event is reflected in the numbers. The 2025 edition concluded with 16 teams and over 150 athletes spread over eleven evenings of competition; the 2026 edition saw 20 five-a-side football teams and 9 green volley squads, for a total of approximately 300 athletes and three full weeks of programming. This growth has been accompanied by the organizers' hope for increasingly close collaboration with local institutions to ensure the event's continuity and stability over time.

Sport, memory, and community

What distinguishes the Eboli Summer Cup from the many summer tournaments in Southern Italy is its dual soul. On one hand, the competitive dimension, with local teams facing off throughout the event; on the other, the dimension of memory, as every evening recalls the name of Angelo and the values that the Angelo Vive Association upholds: friendship, respect, sharing, and attention to those on the margins.

For the Municipality of Eboli, which offers a rich calendar of events throughout the summer featuring sport, music, and tradition, the Summer Cup represents one of the most heartfelt appointments for the youth and one of the moments when the city truly gathers around a single initiative.

When and how to follow it

The event is traditionally concentrated between the end of June and the second half of July, with matches scheduled in the evening hours. Information regarding registration, the match calendar, and access methods is released periodically by the organizers and the Polisportiva Feldi, in conjunction with the local Eboli press, which follows the event from the presentation to the final awards ceremony.
