Brief Club History
The Juventus Sport Club is one of the oldest soccer clubs in Northern California, and the first soccer club on the Peninsula. It was founded in 1956 by four Italian immigrants. At the time of its founding the club boasted one adult soccer team. The first youth team joined the club in 1967. This began a headlong conversion into a program devoted to youth soccer. The very first Juventus Tournament of Champions was held in 1968. With its long and storied history, the Juventus Tournament of Champions is considered by CYSA-N old-timers to be the "granddaddy" of them all!
