editIn the season 2012–13, the team was promoted for the first time, from Eccellenza Marche to Serie D.

Serie C, merger with Anconitana and restart from amateur leagues
editIn June 2021, Matelica owner Mauro Canil and Anconitana announced their intention to merge the two clubs. The resulting entity was named "Ancona-Matelica" and was based in the city of Ancona, with the aim to have its name changed to "Ancona" by 2022, pending approval by the Italian Football Federation.[2]
In July 2021, the merger finally took place; as part of the process, all logos and naming rights of Matelica were given away to Prima Categoria club G.S. Corrado Fabiani Matelica, chaired by Sabrina Orlandi, Mauro Canil's wife.[3][4]
