About Pezoporikos Larnaca FC

Pezoporikos Larnaca FC was a Cypriot multi-sport club based in Larnaca, founded in 1927. It was one of the early football clubs on the island and later became a founding participant in Cypriot official football competitions. The club’s identity was closely linked with the city of Larnaca, and it also developed departments in other sports such as basketball and volleyball, making it an important athletic institution in Cypriot sport history.

In football, Pezoporikos experienced several successful periods, winning the Cypriot First Division twice and the Cypriot Cup once. It was also a regular contender in domestic competitions, finishing as runner-up on multiple occasions. One of its most notable achievements was participation in European competitions, although the club was unable to progress beyond the early rounds in UEFA tournaments.

In 1994, Pezoporikos Larnaca merged with another local club, EPA Larnaca, in order to form AEK Larnaca FC. This merger marked the end of the club as an independent entity but also ensured its legacy continued within the new unified team representing Larnaca. The history of Pezoporikos remains an important part of Cypriot football development, especially in the early and mid-20th century.
