JOIN THE PAOK F.C. ITALY FORUM!

PAOK is the Greek football team, but also of basketball, volleyball, handball, male and female polo, swimming, synchronized swimming, technical swimming, dips, wrestling, tae kwon do, weights, athletics, cycling, boxe and also female football, of the beatiful city of Thessaloniki.

This glorious team was founded in the remote 1926 and it is the historic sequel of thel ‘Hermes’ Athletic and Cultural Association from Constantinople, founded by townspeople.

During his history PAOK has gained important successes in national domain, by winning twochampionships (in 1975/76 and in 1984/85), and four Greek cups (in 1971/72 against Panathinaikos, in 1973/74 against Olympiakos, in 2000/2001 still versus Olympiakos and in 2002/2003 opposed to the cousins of Aris Thessaloniki).

The display case is still empty in international domaine, notwithstanding for some years Paok has been always present in the Uefa Cup, and sometimes also in the Uefa Champions League.

PAOK is a lovelyteam, composed by modest, radiant, splendid, always amenable people. As my friend Fotis, the team driver, said me, only who has been to Toumba Stadium during a PAOK match can understand what is this team for the fans.

Isn't a case if, from the best player to the smallest ring of this squad, the passion is so strong to see it in their eyes.

Personally I fell in love with it and I wish to impassion everybody too.
