Unione Sportiva Viterbese 1908, commonly known as Viterbese, is an Italian football club, based in Viterbo, Lazio. Viterbese currently plays in Promozione.

Colors and badge

The team's colors are yellow and blue.[1]

After suffering relegation from Serie C in 2023, the club did not submit a league application to Serie D, after the City of Viterbo denied them access to the stadium, and instead opted to apply for the lower-ranked Promozione while playing their home games in nearby Cesano.[2] On 26 February 2024, the club unilaterally retired from the Promozione league.[3]
