The city of Taranto is facing a sports crisis, with its football team excluded from Serie C, volleyball relegated from A1, and basketball out of the B league. This decline is a stark contrast to the upcoming Mediterranean Games, which are set to take place soon. The sports sector in Taranto is struggling, with popular sports like calcio, basket, and volley experiencing a downturn. As the city prepares to host a major sporting event, it's clear that something needs to change to revitalize its sports scene and restore its former glory, with a focus on sports marketing and sports management.
