In Italy, as we know, there’s a fondness for rivalries—be it between cities, flags, or neighborhoods. Among these, the Palio of Siena is undoubtedly the most renowned, not just in the Belpaese. However, numerous other events fill our streets and squares at various times of the year, giving life to medieval games that closely mimic the reality of the era they represent.
These games test the skills of youth, primarily, rewarding those who excel in the competitions. Sicily is no exception to this ancient custom: many cities on the island host tournaments during local festivals or fairs, featuring teams that represent the local population.
