In 1929 FIGC changed the mechanism of the championship, and created the Serie A as we know it today (a single league with 16, 18 or 20 teams).
Seasons in Serie A
There are 68 teams representing 61 cities that have taken part in 92 Serie A championships in a single round that was played from the 1929–30 season until the 2023–24 season. Milan, Turin, Genoa, Rome and Verona are the five cities that hosted derbies. Internazionale is the only team that has played Serie A football in every season. The teams in bold compete in Serie A currently.[1]

16 of these teams actually play in Serie B and 20 belong to the Serie C, while the remaining 11 clubs lost their professional status.
By province
54 out of the 61 cities that host past Serie A clubs are present-day provincial capitals, while 7 not.[3] The province of Forlì-Cesena is the sole one that was represented solely by a town which is not its capital. Consequently, 55 out the 107 provinces of Italy were represented in Serie A in their history, while 52 not yet.[1]
By region
The following table lists the participations by region.
Lombardy was the region with the biggest numbers of team in a single championship, six.[4][1]
1944 Campionato Alta Italia
This championship was disputed during the second World War and won by Vigili del Fuoco di La Spezia (V.V.F. Spezia, Spezia Firefighters). It was not recognized by the FIGC until 2002 and assigned to Spezia Calcio 1906, though Spezia's Scudetto is considered a "decoration".
(*) Audace San Michele and Pellizzari Arzignano retired after two matches.
The 1945–46 war championship
This championship is not usually included in the statistics, because some of the southern sides that took part to the competition were Serie B teams, while northern Serie B teams played at the second level with the Serie C teams. Torino's scudetto is considered official.
- Pursuant to the Federal Internal Organizational Rules of the Italian Football Federation (NOIF, art. 20, subsection 5), Unione Calcio Sampdoria inherits and continues the sporting tradition of its most valuable ancestor, A.C. Sampierdarenese, which spent 8 seasons in Serie A, for a total of 74 appearances.
- Casale Monferrato from the province of Alessandria, Legnano from the province of Milan, Busto Arsizio from the province of Varese, Sassuolo and Carpi from the province of Modena, Cesena from the province of Forlì-Cesena, and Empoli from the province of Florence.
- In 1951-52, 1966-67 and 1967-68.
