The Premio Nazionale Carriera Esemplare "Gaetano Scirea" (""Gaetano Scirea" Exemplary Career National Award") is a recognition dedicated to footballers over the age of 30 playing in Italy's Serie A. Established in 1992, the prize is awarded annually for their playing ability and sportsmanship by the Unione Stampa Sportiva Italiana (Italian Sports Press Association) or USSI.[1]

History and regulations[edit]

The recognition was created in honour of Italian defender Gaetano Scirea, who died in a car crash on 3 September 1989.[2] The prize is awarded annually to Serie A Italian footballer over the age of 30 who has stood out throughout their career both for their playing ability and sportsmanship.[1] All Italian journalists are called to vote one recipient from a shortlist of selected candidates.[1]
