The founding of Società Sportiva Lazio created a club that participates in over 40 sports disciplines in total, more than any other sports association in the world. Lazio’s traditional club badge and symbol is the eagle – an acknowledgment to the emblem of Zeus (the god of sky and thunder in Greek mythology) commonly known as the Aquila; Lazio’s use of the symbol has led to two of their nicknames; le Aquile (“the Eagles”) and Aquilotti (“Eaglets”).







Lazio’s traditional kit colours are sky blue shirts and white shorts with white socks; the colours are reminiscent of Rome’s ancient Hellenic legacy which have led to their Italian nickname of biancocelesti.
