Serie A RL is back. 

First games have been played. In addition to this, there has been a camp for domestic players, in Casalmaggiore (a comune in the province of Cremona, Lombardy, Italy).

Excellent news. Looks like there were no blow outs either which is great. 

[Damien]

Great news to see domestic activity in Italy again.

[MatthewWoody]

Hope this brings to tests for domestic players.

[Pie tries]

Brilliant news. Covid did untold damage - great to see clubs re starting. 
 

Any details re other clubs / league structure?

Any actual photos from the matches? Or just these posters with the scores?

[Sports Prophet]

Too far from the M62.

On a more positive note, great news. Fingers crossed for a great season.

Does the domestic competition run by Federazione Italiana Rugby Football League still exist? Wikipedia lists three teams for 2022 and even has squads listed.

Florence to Sicily is a decent away trip for a three team amateur comp.
