Historia [ editar ]

Los primeros años [ editar ]

The club was formed as POEL (Greek: ΠΟΕΛ; Ποδοσφαιρικός Όμιλος Ελλήνων Λευκωσίας, Podosferikos Omilos Ellinon Lefkosias, Football Club of Greeks of Nicosia) on 8 November 1926. The club's formation came about when a group of forty people, with a common vision, met and set the foundations for creating a football club that would represent the Greek residents of the capital and express their deep desire for Cyprus' incorporation (enosis) into Greece. The meeting took place at a traditional confectionery, owned by Charalambos Hadjioannou, downtown in Ledra Street and the first president of the club was Giorgos Poulias.[5] The first clubhouse was the "Athenians Club" (Λέσχη Αθηναίων) at the end of Ledra Street.[5]

After a journey to the football club in Alexandria, Egypt in 1927 the General Assembly of 1928 decided the players showed that they were not just good footballers but also excellent track and field athletes. Hence it was decided to create a track and field team in addition to the football team. The name APOEL was adopted to reflect this, with the 'A' standing for 'Athletic'. Soon after more sports departments were established, including volleyball, table tennis, rugby football, boxing, cycling, field hockey and basketball (a few years later). Also the club issued a sports newspaper, the "Athlitiki Echo", the first Cypriot sport newspaper.

The foundation of CFA and the club's first ever official title[edit]

Cyprus did not have any country-wide league until 1932. Football clubs of the time played friendly matches only. In 1932, Pezoporikos Larnaca organised an unofficial league, the first island-wide league, and it was won by APOEL after defeating AEL Limassol in the final by 4–0. In 1934, there was a disagreement between Trust and Anorthosis Famagusta on the organisation of the fourth unofficial league. APOEL and AEL Limassol organised a meeting for the foundation of a country-wide governing body and an official country-wide league. The meeting took place in APOEL's clubhouse on 23 September and the establishment of the Cyprus Football Associationfue acordado. Dos años más tarde, el equipo de fútbol APOEL celebró su primer título de campeonato de la liga oficial de fútbol de Chipre . [5]

Los conflictos de 1948 [ editar ]

Sin embargo, la política pronto provocaría conflictos dentro del equipo. El 23 de mayo de 1948, la directiva del club envió un telegrama a la Asociación Helénica de Atletismo Amateur (en griego : Σ.Ε.Γ.Α.Σ. ), con la oportunidad de la Competencia Panhelénica de Atletismo anual, que incluía deseos de que "La rebelión" ha terminado. Varios miembros del club de izquierda percibieron el telegrama como un comentario político sobre la Guerra Civil griega y se distanciaron del club. [6] Unos días después, el 4 de junio de 1948, fundaron Omonia , que hasta hoy es el archirrival del APOEL y ha existido una animosidad tradicional entre los aficionados de los dos equipos. [6]

1955–59 period[edit]

More conflicts led to further struggles for APOEL. Athletes belonging to the club frequently participated in national clashes. During the 1955–59 national uprising against the British, many of APOEL's athletes and members of the club were active members of EOKA (the National Organisation of Cypriot Fighters), the most outstanding example being the club's track and field athlete Michalakis Karaolis who was hanged by the British colonial authorities. During this period the football team had their closest brush with relegation as most football players were actively taking part in the national struggle.

The formation of APOEL FC Company[edit]

APOEL Football (Public) Ltd se estableció en mayo de 1997, después de la decisión del comité APOEL. [7] Esto tuvo un efecto significativo en el club porque separó las actividades del equipo de fútbol de las del club deportivo. La formación de la empresa fue necesaria debido a las dificultades financieras que enfrentó el equipo en ese momento. La empresa inició sus operaciones con un capital de CY £ 600.000. La actividad principal de la compañía es la gestión, operación y explotación comercial del APOEL Football Club . La compañía posee todos los derechos del departamento de fútbol en virtud de un acuerdo con el club deportivo APOEL y paga al club CY £ 100,000 anualmente por el privilegio. [8]El acuerdo entre la empresa y el club se renueva cada cinco años. La empresa tiene 1745 accionistas [9] y, además del club de fútbol, ​​también mantiene una boutique del equipo (Orange Shop), la revista APOELFC (en griego : ΑΠΟΕΛFC ) y el sitio web apoelfc.com.cy , entre otros.

Colores e insignia [ editar ]

Los colores de APOEL son azul y amarillo. El azul simboliza Grecia y el amarillo simboliza Bizancio . [10] [11] El logo es un escudo azul y amarillo con el nombre del club escrito en diagonal en azul.

The football club badge has a small difference on it. The bage has remained the same since the establishment of the club, but after the football team of APOEL won their 20th championship (2008–09 season), two stars were added above the football club's logo to symbolize the 20 championship titles (one star for every ten championships won).

Supporters[edit]

APOEL is the most popular team in Cyprus.[1][2] APOEL fans are right-wing in their majority but there are no strong ties between the organised fans and any political party.[10] That wasn't always the case but during the past years they have actively avoided association with any political party.[10]

El principal grupo de apoyo es PAN.SY.FI ( griego : ΠΑΝ.ΣΥ.ΦΙ ). PAN.SY.FI se fundó en 1979 [12] y tiene sucursales en las principales ciudades de Chipre y también en otros países. Los PAN.SY.FI (y la mayoría de los ultras) visten chaquetas (o camisetas) naranjas. El primer juego que lucieron las chaquetas naranjas fue durante el juego de la primera ronda del campeonato 1992-93 contra AEL Limassol en el estadio Makario . [12] APOEL ha reservado la camiseta número 79 en honor a PAN.SY.FI. (APOEL Ultras), para denotar el año de fundación del grupo, 1979.

Estadios [ editar ]

El estadio del APOEL Football Club desde el 23 de octubre de 1999 es el GSP Stadium de 22.859 plazas . Es el estadio más grande de Chipre y lo comparten con los rivales locales Omonia y Olympiakos Nicosia . [13] Antes de mudarse al GSP Stadium , APOEL usó como terreno de juego el Makario Stadium (desde 1978 hasta 1999) y el antiguo GSP Stadium (antes de 1978).

The club's basketball, volleyball and futsal teams host their matches in the 2,100 seater Lefkotheo Indoor Arena which was built in 1980.[14] For many years the basketball team used as home venue the 6,000 capacity Eleftheria Indoor Hall.

1926 - APOEL's official magazine[edit]

1926 es la revista oficial del club polideportivo APOEL. [15] Revista deportiva mensual de Chiprepublicada en Nicosia , fue fundada en 2013 y su primera edición sepublicóel 7 de marzo de 2013.
