LND Giovani D Valore project releases first rankings

The Lega Nazionale Dilettanti (LND) has released the first updated rankings for the 'Giovani D Valore' project for the 2026/2027 Serie D season. This initiative incentivizes clubs to utilize Under-19 players, particularly those from their own youth academies, by providing financial rewards.

A total of €1,035,000 has been allocated by the LND to be distributed across nine groups, with €115,000 available per group. Prizes are awarded to the top five clubs in two separate rankings: one at the end of the first half of the season and another at the end of the second half.

Following the sixth matchday, the leading clubs in various groups include Gozzano in Group A, Virtus Verona in Group B, Este in Group C, Crema in Group D, Seravezza in Group E, Sporting Trestina in Group F, Anzio in Group G, Ischia in Group H, and Ragusa in Group I.
