Forza di Calcio Athalone (FC Timiocato) is a Pacitalian football (soccer) club playing in the Divizione Secunda of the Ligura Futaboli di Pacitalia. The team is affectionately known as the Navy-Whites and play their matches at the Stadio dal Caribano in downtown Athalone. The team's poor 2004/05 season pushed it to third-last after the end of that season, and thus to relegation into the Divizione Secunda. The reason for relegation is believed to simply be injuries to their talented players, since now that most of those players have returned to the active squad, the DS rankings place Athalone in the top 5 and in a good position to be promoted right back into the Premera for 2006/07.

The team is currently led by captain Paolo Minuccio.
