Olympiacos Nicosia celebrates 95 years with state support

Olympiacos Nicosia held a commemorative event on October 29, 2026, at the Hilton Nicosia hotel to mark the club's 95th anniversary since its founding in 1931. The event, held under the theme "Our history, our strength," honored the club's athletic, social, and national contributions, including the historical role of its members during the EOKA struggle and the 1974 Turkish invasion of Cyprus.

During the ceremony, attended by President Nikos Christodoulides, the Ministers of Defense and Labor, and leadership from the Cyprus Football Association (CFA), a significant financial package was announced. President Christodoulides pledged a state contribution of 95,000 euros to support the club's academy efforts, while the CFA announced additional funding intended for the upgrading of the club's stadium at Promachonas. Club president Petros Savva opened the ceremony by reflecting on the team's legacy and the dedication required to sustain it over nearly a century.

This event served as a milestone for the historic Taktakalas-based club as it looks toward its centennial. The financial aid provided by the state and the football federation is intended to secure the club's future infrastructure and developmental programs.
