Aironi SoftAir Club

At the beginning of the nineties the practice of Softair (or Air Soft) took its first steps in the broad panorama of team sports present on Italian territory and, specifically, in the Tuscany region, probably the area in which most of all the activities related to it were more concrete. A group called "Equipe D'action" was created in the province of Pisa, naturally not the only one, but certainly the largest given that it could boast more than 60 members.

Meetings between the various clubs were frequent and the idea of competitive matches that initially stood alone was gaining ground. Within the club, a group of soft-gunners dedicated to competitions was created, who gave themselves the name ofAironi.

The group was truly competitive and achieved notable goals in those years.

In 1997, however, the agreement within Equipe D'action broke down and the group disbanded. Some members formed another club, but the rest wanted to continue the positive experience of the Aironi and so it was that the competitive group, a historical offshoot of the club, took on the role of a club itself, becoming Aironi Soft-Air Club Pontedera, history was changing!

The Aironi continued their positive streak by also renewing the club's members. Considerable goals have been achieved, participating in regional and extra-regional competitions, and winning or placing among the first places most of the times, even reaching the A.S.N.W.G. national finals.

The club is currently in the process of being reorganized due to generational change. The new members will undergo training and will be introduced to the reality of soft-air competitions in order to bring the Aironi back to the rightful place that belongs to a historic group.
