Collecchio, 12 June 2026 – The Parma grassroots season came to a close with a collective farewell to the Club’s young Gialloblu players and their families. It was a celebratory afternoon at the Mutti Training Centre, featuring a training session open to all parents of players from the Under-14s down to the Under-8/9 age groups.

All the youngsters took to the pitch in front of a stand packed with family members for the final day of the 2025/26 sporting season. Joy and friendship were at the heart of the event, which concluded with an aperitif attended by club executives, coaching staff, scouts and collaborators – an opportunity to reflect on the season and say goodbye before the summer break.

Addressing the Academy and grassroots community were Gianluca Baschieri, Head of Grassroots Football at Parma Calcio, and Mattia Notari, Head of the Club’s Youth Sector. During the end-of-season farewell, both expressed their satisfaction with the results achieved, but above all with the progress made in strengthening the Club’s identity: a wide-ranging project developed both on and off the pitch, which has also received national recognition from several institutional bodies.
