Rosario Pergolizzi (born October 7, 1968 in Palermo) is an Italian football coach and former player, most recently manager of Ascoli.
Pergolizzi, a defender, made his professional debut with Sardinian team Olbia Calcio; he then moved to Napoli, where he made a single appearance in the Serie A 1987-88. Pergolizzi then played for several minor Serie A and B clubs, including Ascoli, Bologna, Brescia, Padova and Ravenna. He retired in 2001–2002, after a single appearance with Olbia, then in Serie D.
Pergolizzi started his coaching career in 2002 as Giuseppe Pillon's assistant coach at Ascoli of Serie C1. The same year the club immediately gained promotion to Serie B. In 2003–2004 he followed Pillon at Bari.
From 2004 to 2005 he coached Serie C2 club Olbia, the same team in which he started and ended his playing career. In 2005, he was appointed to coach Palermo's youth squad. In his first season, he reached the semifinals of both the Campionato Nazionale Primavera and the Coppa Italia Primavera. In 2006–2007, he reached again the Coppa Italia Primavera semifinals, where his team was defeated by Juventus.
