Convocati

Convocati is the plural form of convocato in Italian, used to describe people who have been officially summoned to attend a meeting, hearing, or event. The term derives from convocare, to call together, and is related to the noun convocazione, the act of summoning. In Italian, convocati is masculine or mixed-gender plural; the feminine plural is convocate.

In legal contexts, convocati refers to individuals formally summoned to appear before a court or another authority. The summons is known as una convocazione, and compliance is generally required. Failure to appear can carry penalties, which vary by jurisdiction and context.

In sports, particularly football (soccer), convocati describes players selected by a coach to be part of a national or club squad for a match or tournament. The list of convocati is announced ahead of the game, and selections may change due to injuries, form, or tactical decisions.

In other contexts, convocati can denote participants invited to attend assemblies, meetings, or administrative hearings. The term emphasizes the official nature of the invitation and the expectation of attendance.
