Some of the athletes are: Vicky Arvaniti, Ares Grigoriadis, Marianna Liberta, Elias Eliadis, Maria Karastamati, Tassos Goussis and Chrisopigi Devetzi.

We read in Homer how the Greeks held games in honour of their dead warriors in the war of Troy. Ancient Olympia (Ολυμπία), in the Peloponnese (Πελοπόνησος) was where the first Olympiads were held as in honour of Pelops’s struggle to marry Hippodamia. The first games occured in 776 BC and occured every four years. Greeks would send their best men to represent each city. The Culture of Ancient Greece has inspired aesthetics, athletics, politics, and many other things we now enjoy in our modern times!
