Authorities in Italy have implemented ticket bans for residents of specific provinces to prevent violence during football matches. 

In Salerno, Prefect Michele Campanaro banned ticket sales to residents of the Salerno province for a Serie D match between Melfi and Nocerina. This decision followed a recommendation from the Sports Manifestations Security Analysis Committee after a violent incident on August 30, where Nocerina supporters allegedly assaulted staff and entered a stadium without tickets.

Similarly, in the Romagna area, authorities imposed an away-fan ban for a Prima Categoria match between Bagno di Romagna and Cattolica. Ticket sales were prohibited for all residents of the province of Rimini due to concerns regarding potential clashes between supporters. This measure follows a trend of increased security for amateur matches in the region following previous tensions between fan groups.
