History of the club



The foundation


The club was founded on 11 April 1961 from the merger between Megas Alexandros (meaning Alexander the Great) Katerinis and Olympos Katerinis. Megas Alexandros had played in the 1st Division of Greek football in its first season (1959–60) but finished in the 15th position and thus relegated in the 2nd Division. Neither Megas Alexandros nor Olympos gained promotion in the following season. Unification of the two clubs has seen as the only way for the city of Katerini to have a team in the 1st Division. Therefore, Pierikos was born.[1]


History


In 1963, Pierikos played for the first time in the First National Division where he stayed for 9 whole years, while in the same year reached the final of the Greek Cup facing Olympiakos. Club's performances were often impressive, as it consistently finished in the top 10 of scoreboard of the league. In 1972 was demoted but returned soon. In 1975 the team got promoted to the First Division again and remained for 3 years. The club was then demoted again. Pierikos was promoted three more times to the First National, but never managed to establish itself again in the 1st Division. The biggest distinction of the club was to finish 3 times in the 5th place of the championship, but also the Cup final against Olympiakos in 1963 where it was defeated 3–0.


The 1960s


Pierikos also played in the Greek Cup Semi-Final this season where was suffered a 3–1 defeat by AEK Athens FC.[2] This was as Final because the other Semi-Final between Olympiacos and Panathinaikos FC never ended and therefore AEK Athens FC was awarded the Greek Cup by E.P.O.

The Municipal Stadium of Katerini (or better 1st Municipal Athletic Center of Katerini), which was recently renamed, since it was previously National Stadium of Katerini, is located at the National Stadium District in the city of Katerini. It has a capacity of 4,956 spectators. It has two stands (there are no petals behind the hearths). The central part of one radius is covered. It also features projectors for night races. There are 8 lanes with tartan and other spaces for classic sports.[6]

It is the headquarters of the Pierikos team, although it has occasionally hosted other teams such as Vataniakos and Ethnikos Katerini's due to the lack of another stadium in Katerini that would qualify for the accusations.
