soccer match
 
WE are going to Italy in June 2009 with a 16 year boy who is a big soccer fan. How do we go about getting tickets to a soccer game? I'm not sure what options exist for the different levels (Pro,semi-pro) that are available. Thinking pro may be expensive
Help Thank you.

In Venice we went to a soccer match with our 11 yr. old grandson. There is a ticket booth right at the stadium and we were able to buy our tickets when we arrived. Men's tickets are more expensive than women and child tickets!

You're searched before entering the stadium, but it was a great family atmosphere.

In Marseille, France, a much higher ranked team, we bought tickets ahead of time from the team web site.

I'm pretty sure (damn sure in fact) that the Italian season will be over by June. Sorry.

Hi Bert - The Serie 'A' season finishes on 31 May '09.
Likewise Serie 'B' :(

You may or may not find something at a lower level ...

Forgot to say we will be in Rome.

Also Football not soccer. If not Pros, any semi-pro or ameteur?
