Circolo Pattinatori Valentino Torino is a skating club in Turin, Italy.

Founded in 1874, the club took its name from the Valentino Park (Parco de Valentino) in Turin, where a pond that served as their skating and later hockey rink was located. In 1908, the pond served as the location of Italy's first ice hockey game - a friendly match between local Italians and Lyon from France.

The hockey team participated in the first edition of the Serie A (1925) and three other seasons in the 1930s (1930, 1932, and 1933). The section then dissolved due to a lack of suitable sponsors.
