The first appearance of the Guardia di Finanza in the context of sports competitions dates back to 1911, with the participation of a team in the gymnastics competitions organized in Turin for the 50th anniversary of the Unification of Italy, but in fact the first organized structure, in fact the original nucleus of the Fiamme Gialle (Yellow Flames), was created in 1921 to participate in a walking race, the Scudo Nelli Trophy, which was finally awarded after three successes in 1922, 1925 and 1928.[2]

In the following years the activity was expanded with the establishment of several sports groups, the first of which was the Skiers Group, founded in 1925 at the Alpine School of the Guardia di Finanza in Predazzo (in the province of Trento), a group that became famous as the Yellow Flames of Predazzo.
