Juventus Football Club is an Italian professional association football club based in Turin, Piedmont, that competes in Serie A, the top football league in the country. The club was formed in 1897 as Sport Club Juventus by a group of Massimo D'Azeglio Lyceum young students, and played its first competitive match on 11 March 1900, when it entered the Piedmont round of the IIIº Federal Championship.
This list encompasses the major honours won by Juventus and records set by the club, their managers and their players. The individual records section includes details of the club's leading goalscorers and those who have made most appearances in first-team competitions. The club's players have received, among others, a record twenty five Oscar del Calcio, the awards given by the Italian Footballers' Association (AIC), eight Ballon d'Or awards and four FIFA World Player of the Year awards, more than any other Italian club in both cases.
Italy's most successful club of the 20th century, and the most successful club in the history of Italian football, Juventus have won the Italian League Championship, the country's premier football club competition and organised by Lega Nazionale Professionisti Serie A (LNPA), a record 32 times and have the record of consecutive triumphs in that tournament (five, between 1930–31 and 1934–35 as well as between 2011–12 and 2015–16). They have also won the Coppa Italia, the country's primary cup competition, a record eleven times, and becoming the first team to retain the trophy successfully with their triumph in the 1959–60 season. In addition, the club holds the joint record with Milan for Supercoppa Italiana wins with seven, the most recent coming in 2015.
Overall, Juventus have won 61 official competitions, more than any other team in the country; 50 in the national First Division, which is also a record, and 11 official international competitions, making them, in the latter case, the second most successful Italian club in European competition. The club is currently fourth in Europe and eighth in the world with the most international titles won officially recognised by their respective continental football confederation and Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA). In 1977, the Torinese side become the first in Southern Europe to have won the UEFA Cup and the first—and only to date—in Italian football history to achieve an international title with a squad composed by national footballers. In 1993 the club won its third competition's trophy, an unprecedented feat in the continent until then and the most for an Italian club. Juventus was, also, the first Italian club to achieve the title in the European Super Cup, having won the competition in 1984, and the first European club to win the Intercontinental Cup, in 1985, since it was restructured by Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) and Confederación Sudamericana de Fútbol (CONMEBOL)'s organizing committee five years beforehand.
The club has earned the distinction of being allowed to wear three Golden Stars for Sport Excellence (it. Stelle d'oro al Merito Sportivo) on its shirts representing its league victories: the tenth of which was achieved during the 1957–58 season, the twentieth in the 1981–82 season and the thirtieth in the 2013–14 season. Juventus were the first Italian team to have twice achieved the national double thrice (winning the Italian top tier division and the national cup competition in the same season), in the 1959–60, 1994–95 and 2014–15 seasons. In the 2015–16 season the club won the Coppa Italia for the 11th time, and their second straight title, becoming the first team in Italy's history to complete Serie A and Coppa Italia doubles in back-to-back seasons.
In 1985, Juventus became the first club in the history of European football to have won all three major UEFA competitions, the European Champion Clubs' Cup, the (now-defunct) UEFA Cup Winners' Cup and the UEFA Cup. After their triumph in the Intercontinental Cup in the same year, Juventus also became the first football team ever—remain the only one at present—to have won all possible official confederation tournaments.
Only in the 1910s the club has not won any official competition, a unique case in the country. In terms of overall official trophies won, Juventus' most successful decades were the 1980s and 1990s; in each period the club won eleven competitions.
