History

During 40s decade the club declined due to World War. The club's premises were used by German army as fort. During 50s it started the reorganisation of the club. At the beginning of 60s the club faced problems but a new administration helped the club to surpass them. Since 1966, Water Polo team plays constantly in A1 Ethniki (first division).^[2] It has won a Cup and has finished in the first places of the championship many times.^[1]
