History

The Early Years

At the time of the founding of Nea Salamina, Greece entered a period of civil war between leftists and rightists known as Greek Civil War. The situation in Greece affected Cyprus, infiltrating both the political life and sport.[1] Most athletes were also involved in politics. Famagusta at this time had two sport clubs, Evagoras Gymnastic Association GSE (Greek: Γυμναστικός Σύλλογος Ευαγόρας) and Anorthosis Famagusta FC. GSE had many leftist athletes on its rosters, who were some of the best athletes of Cyprus. At Anorthosis many players were also leftists. Under the influence of the right-wing political climate of that time, both GSE and Anorthosis began to impose restrictions on the admission of leftist members,[2][3] or denied promotion to players with left-wing leanings. From early 1947, a group of people from Famagusta, including leftists, members and non-members of GSE and Anorthosis, felt that there was room for the creation of another sport club in the city. Due to the restrictions imposed, and wanting to develop sport in the city, they envisioned a club that would be separated from politics and would appeal to everybody in Famagusta.[1][3]

Following deliberations, on 14 February 1948[1][4] the final decision was taken to establish the club and efforts began setting it up and registering club members. After the successful efforts the New Salamis sports club was formed on Sunday, March 7, 1948[1][4] as the first leftist athletic club of Cyprus.[4] After the foundation of the club many citizens expressed their desire to join. The football section was not strong enough at that time as the majority of footballers who had joined were not very gifted.[5]

Persecution from the GSE Stadium and the establishment of CAFF

Before the Pancyprian Games in May 1948, the Hellenic Amateur Athletic Association (SEGAS) asked all the Gymnastics Associations of Cyprus to state if the clubs espouse "nationalist beliefs".[1][2] The rightist athletic clubs and athletes signed these statements. The only club that refused to sign the statement was the Gymnastic Association "Kinyras" Paphos, which was therefore excluded from the games. The leftist athletes were opposed to the declaration made by the clubs, and refused to sign the statement.[1][2] Among the first athletes who reacted were the champions of GSE, Antonis Totsis (Greek: Αντώνης Τότσης) and Nikis Georgiou (Greek: Νικής Γεωργίου). GSE invited the two athletes to apologize but both athletes insisted on their position that sports should stay away from politics.[6] In addition, the leftist athletes decided to support the Gymnastic Association "Kinyras" Paphos, if the decision to exclude it from Pancyprian Games was unchanged. Although they had many chances to compete and to win, the two athletes preferred to stand by Kinyras. GSE was considered as dominant for winning the first position in the competition,[2] but after those facts it took the third place at the end. As a reaction to the fact that athletes of Nea Salamis were not involved in the Pancyprian Games, GSE sent a letter to the club informing it that entry to the GSE Stadium was allowed for it.[1][2][6] The letter was signed by the President of GSE.[7] Deletions of other athletes of GSE and Anorthosis who stood by their teammates followed.[6] The prohibition on the use of the stadium caused a problem to Nea Salamis, as they were not able to use it for the participation in the new season's soccer league.[7]

Similarly, negative attitudes against leftist athletes prevailed in other Cypriot cities. In Larnaca, Alki Larnaca F.C. was founded in April. The month after, the Gymnastic Club Zeno (GSZ), banned Alki from using GSZ Stadium in a general meeting [2][6][7] A similar proposal to exclude Turks and Catholics was rejected. At the same general meeting, members of the GSZ, amended the relevant article of the constitution and prohibited any future enrollment of new members unless they had previously signed a declaration that "they espouse the Hellenic nationalistic ideals". Therefore, they took the decision to virtually exclude any leftist athletes from becoming members or using its stadium.[6] In May, Orfeas Nicosia was founded in Nicosia. In the same month APOEL F.C. sent a greeting by telegram to SEGAS ("cordial brotherly greetings to the entire Greek youth athletes"), on the occasion of National Games, and wished the cease of inner-nation mutiny. Leftist members and athletes of APOEL considered "inner-nation mutiny" as a challenge and political statement of the club, thus they distanced themselves from that statement. The Cypriot press stoked a hostile climate with their articles and comments.[2][6][7] This was followed by the indefinite suspension of five athletes of APOEL (Lympouris, Tsialis, Gogakis, Xatzivasileiou and Christodoulou) who founded a new club AC Omonia in June 1948, along with former members of the APOEL.[2][6][7] After that, AS Kyrenia was founded.[7]

Due to their leftist beliefs, members of new clubs were not accepted into the ranks of Cyprus Football Association (CFA), so they decided to set up a new football federation, the Cyprus Amateur Football Federation (KEPO) in December 1948.[7][8][9] The new federation organized leagues and cups,[10] which attracted thousands of new fans. The matches organized by CAFF attracted much more fans than those of CFA.[11][12] In CAFF competitions six clubs were participated: Nea Salamis in Famagusta, Omonia and Orpheus in Nicosia, Alki at Larnaca, AMOL at Limassol (which was renamed to Antaeus in 1951) and Neos Asteras in Morphou.[10]

Unification of Cypriot football

The club members of CAFF favored the unification of Cyprus football. They tried for three consecutive years to convince CFA to accept them as members, however the latter kept rejecting their request.[6] The existence of two different football federations and two separated championships in a small country like Cyprus, was something unprecedented. The situation created economic problems and problems related to lack of sports infrastructure. The separation was preventing the development and upgrading of Cypriot football.[1][13][14][15] In addition, the clubs felt that the sport spirit should lie on brotherhood and friendship, and not no segregation and discrimination. In December 1952, Sports newspaper "Athlitiki" with its first edition posed the start for the unification of Cyprus Football by launching a crusade in favor of the unification. Through the same newspaper first voices for consolidation beyond space of CFA (foreign coaches of CFA's clubs) were heard. CFA condemned the statements of its own club's coaches believing that "their statements opposed the spirit of the Federation".[14] The decision-makers of CFA initially expressed hostile attitude towards consolidation supporters.[14] In the summer of 1953, the majority of that era's leading sport stakeholders of Cyprus expressed their support for the unification of Cypriot football. In August 1953, Nea Salamis, Omonia, Alki and Antaeus submitted a joint application in order to become members of CFA and join Cyprus First Division. The following month, on 19 September 1953, CFA accepted the application[14] of Nea Salamis and Omonia for membership in CFA.[14][16][17] However, the negativism of CFA towards those clubs continued.[14] CFA rejected the applications of Alki, Orpheus and Neos Asteras (two first clubs joined the federation a year after),[16] arguing that one team had to participate in Cypriot First Division and two teams in Cypriot Second Division according to its constitution. The clubs of CAFF accepted these conditions in order achieve the unification of Cyprus football at the end. In an ad hoc meeting of CAFF, members decided to let Omonia to join the Cypriot First Division and Nea Salamis and Antaeus to join the Cypriot Second Division.[14] After those developments, CAFF disbanded.[13] The first game between teams from the two federations held between Nea Salamis and Anorthosis. The two football teams met at GSE Stadium for a friendly game, on September 27, 1953. 5200 fans were present at that friendly game between the two Famagustian football clubs. The final result was 3–1 in favor of Anorthosis, in a match that was characterized as an evidence of superior sportsmanship and brotherhood of fans by newspaper "Athlitiki".[18][19]

Famagusta municipal stadium

The club did not have a stadium for training after denial of access to the GSE stadium, thus, they initially practiced at the court of Saint Lukas ("Proodou") in Famagusta.[12][20] In addition, the club began efforts to establish a privately owned stadium. In December 1948, Israel made a donation to the municipality of Famagusta three thousand pounds, in gratitude for the help offered by the inhabitants of Famagusta to Jewish refugees. The donation was intended to implement a community service project. Gabriel Makris, alderman of Famagusta and footballer of Nea Salamina, promoted the association's recommendation to create the field. The city council recognized the "financial assistance granted to the Jews to create Municipal Sports Stadium, which is available to Famagustans for the promotion and spread of mass popular sport." The stadium was available to Nea Salamina and to any club cultivated sports.[21] In early 1949 started construction with volunteer work[12][20] the Municipal Stadium is in the parish of Saint John Famagusta. The stadium was completed in 1952 and was the first stadium of Cyprus with a roof over the stands. It was built by the fans of the club and footballers who worked on its construction.[22] The stadium was completed in 1952 and was the headquarters of Nea Salamina for the period 1952–53.[1][12] In 1953, after the unification of football federations, the stadium was established as GSE Stadium[19][21] This period lasted until 1974, when Famagusta by occupied by the Turkish army after the Turkish invasion in Cyprus and the club was forced to move its headquarters. The city's Municipal Stadium was used for training of the team until 1974.[23]

Ammochostos Stadium

Main article: Ammochostos Stadium

The original home ground of Nea Salamis FC was GSE Stadium in Famagusta, but due to the Turkish occupation of the town since 1974 they cannot use it. From 1974 until 1991 Nea Salamina used GSZ Stadium in Larnaca, Dasaki Stadium in Dasaki Achnas, Municipal Stadium of Dherynia and Antonis Papadopoulos Stadium in Larnaca. In 1991, built their own stadium, Ammochostos Stadium.

Ammochostos Stadium has a capacity of 5000 seats and is located in Larnaca. The Ammochostos Stadium mainly used for football matches. Owner of the stadium is Nea Salamina. In the same area is the offices of the club.

Ammochostos Stadium named after the town of Famagusta, which was the original seat of Nea Salamis before the Turkish invasion. Constructed in 1991 and built into the refugee camps of Larnaca. The decision to create the step was taken in 1989 and in December of the same year began the construction. Thanks to the contributions of supporters of Nea Salamis in Cyprus and abroad, Cyprus Sports Organisation and voluntary work, succeeded in manufacturing in a short period of time.[1][24]

The stadium hosted the 1992 UEFA European Under-16 Football Championship final on May 17, 1992 between Germany and Spain where Germany won 2–1.[25]

The first official game of Nea Salamis Famagusta in tbe stadium was on Saturday, October 12, 1991 with Evagoras Paphos as opponent. Nea Salamina won 4–1.[26]

Emblem and colors

The emblem of Nea Salamina is the torch. It includes the color red and the five circles of the Olympic Games.[27] The first colors of Nea Salamina were yellow and crimson.[27][28] The team bore those for two years in the league of Cyprus Amateur Football Federation. After 1950, the Governing Council decided to establish red and white as the colors of the team.[27][28] The recommendation was based on the thought that the red symbolizes the power and the white peace. The red jerseys with white stripes were preferred because they resembled Olympiakos Piraeus.[27]

Αnthem

The anthem of Nea Salamis is follows (translated from Greek):

Red blood, red outfit
Salamis fight, we give you a soul.
Olympia circles, illuminating with torch
in glorious shield of '48.

The red and white color i will see
back to life in empty Famagusta.
Fiery people, brave athletes,
celebrate victories together forever.

Red blood, red outfit
Salamis fight, we give you a soul.
Great Salamina, never stop
in the refuge, fight for us.

In our hearts, you are one, Salamina

As ground used GSE stadium while Famagusta Municipal Stadium, was used for training. At that time, the second division included two groups. Nea Salamis was in the group Nicosia-Larnaca-Famagusta.

The first years of the decade created a nucleus for an enhancer team. Young, substitute players join the main group, the most important Kyriakos Koureas, subsequent player of Olympiakos Piraeus.[44] During the season 1963–64 the league was discontinued in December 1963 because of intercommunal disturbances and never continued. By the time of the interruption Nea Salamina was in third place with a point of difference from the first and second. Along with Omonia and APOEL were the protagonists of the period until interrupted.[45]

The club and the players did not receive any facility by the National Guard, despite letters sent out. Common was the phenomenon players to come straight from the camp, from various areas of Cyprus to compete in official league games without training.[46]

Nea Salamis FC 1965–66

The 1965–66 season was one of the best and yet painful periods for Nea Salamina, and remains a landmark in the history of the team so far. Portion of sportsman argued that Nea Salamina played the best football in Cyprus.[47] It claimed the championship until the last game of the season while played for the first time in the Cup final, but failed to win it. The championship began with consecutive wins and claimed the championship.[47] In game with APOEL at old GSP stadium Nea Salamina preceded by 3–0. In the 62nd minute, player of APOEL hit Nea Salamina football player and member of APOEL grabbed the flag of supervisor and hid. The referee stopped the game according to the provisions of the CFA special instruction and ultimately the court of the CFA decided to repeat the game. The trial lasted more than three weeks and during this time Nea Salamina defeated by the last team of table, Aris Limassol F.C.. Nea Salamina won the iteratively rival with APOEL.[48] In the penultimate match of the tournament Omonia and Salamis was in the first place of the table with same points, while Olympiacos followed with one point difference.[49] In the game against Olympiakos Nicosia, Nea Salamina preceded by 2–1, the referee added undue delay, giving the opportunity Olympiakos to tie.[50] The referee explained that decision referring players to injuries, which could not be confirmed according to the newspapers of that period.[50] After clashes in the last seconds the game was stopped and the court decided that followed its repetition.[50] Until the case is heard, the championship was over.

This defeat caused problems and some players did not appear again in the team with effect occur in weak cup final with rival Apollon Limassol. Despite the fact that it was the favorite to win the Cup, defeated 4–2.[49][51] During this period Salamis had the best defense in the league with 21 goals in 20 games for the first and only time.

Decade 1970–1979

During the first two seasons of the 1970s, Nea Salamis ended in the middle of the table, but the next two seasons led to the threat of relegation, which was eventually avoided. The most tragic day in the history of the club recorded on August 14, 1974, with the occupation of Famagusta by the Turkish troops as a result of the Turkish invasion of Cyprus, which lead to the club becoming a refugee club.[1] The fans and the players of the club scattered to all free areas of Cyprus and abroad. In October, some members of the board met at the house of Aris Limassol. There it was decided to revive the club.[56] Most players of Nea Salamina were in Larnaca and so it was decided that Larnaca would be the temporary ground of the football department.[56] Initially, Nea Salamina housed temporarily at the house of Alki. In January it acquired its own rented building. In the early stages the expenses were covered by contributions from members and friends of the club. Alongside this two football ranks were begun, one in Larnaca and one in Limassol for training young players.[57]

Before the end of 1974, CFA decided to hold a special championship. There was speculation by members of the board of Nea Salamina whether the team should participate, because of the huge problems caused by the refugees, however, they decided to participate. The aim was not so much distinction as to survive and stay in Cypriot First Division.[58] As there was no permanent stadium, in the period 1974–75 used the GSZ Stadium,[58] in the period 1975–76 municipal stadium of Dherynia,[59] the period 1976–77 returned to GSZ stadium,[60] in the period 1977–78 used Dasaki Stadium in Dasaki Achnas[61] and the period 1978–79 returned to GSZ stadiumStilianou & Neofitou 1988, p. 97</ref> where remained during the period 1979–80.[62]

Stay in first division had achieved by 1979. However, in the period 1978–79, although it had good start, Nea Salamina demoted the last game in the second division, after 25 years of continuous presence in the first division. Decisive was the last match of the tournament, when the stay was dependent effects of opponents. Nea Salamina faced Enosis Neon Paralimni FC and won 3–2. At the same time, it needed Evagoras not to beat champion Omonia or lose Olympiacos from Alki. Eventually, Evagoras won Omonia and Olympiakos bore draw with Alki.[62] Five teams have won more than one point of Nea Salamina and relegated so (although it had achieved 10 victories), while expressing grievances and leaving many innuendos about rigged games against.[63] The period 1978–79 for the first time applied the dual relegation, while all previous relegation was single or not true at all.

In the summer of 1974, before the Turkish invasion, Nea Salamis had agreed to cooperate with Bulgarian coach Iancho Arsov, who decades later won titles with Omonia. The arrival of coach in Cyprus and the agreement was canceled because it was impossible for a foreigner coach to be employed.[57]

Decade 1980–1989

During the period 1979–80 Nea Salamis played in the second division and was triumphant march. Many times fans at matches of Nea Salamina outnumbered fans racing first division. Comfortably won the league and returned to the first division in the period 1980–81.[62][66] The first race won the later champion Omonia, a 2–1 away at Makario Stadium in Nicosia. This defeat of Omonia was the first suffered at Makario Stadium since started competing in it.[67] Nea Salamis claimed high position in the league, but eventually finished seventh.[68]

The period 1981–82 Nea Salamina acquired for the first time foreign footballers: Bulgarian Nazca Michailiof and Stefan Pavlov.[69] The period 1982–83 was an unprecedented incident. In the game with opponent Enosis Neon Paralimni FC in GSZ stadium three players of Nea Salamina expelled so the remaining players surrounded the linesman to protest. The supervisor claimed that blows received thus transported to the hospital, but denied the radiographs.

Former players

Turkish Cypriot

Since its founding, Nea Salamina sought to develop friendly relations with the Turkish Cypriots community in Famagusta. An important element was the admission of the Turkish Cypriots to the team. In the early 1950s several Turkish Cypriots footballers i.e. Siekkeris, Nita, Moustafa etc. joined the team of Nea Salamis. When the team joined the CFA, they struggled for two seasons in the Second Division and had as rivals Turkish Cypriot clubs (e.g. Demir Sports, Kenslik Kiounslou, Turkish Club of Famagusta). When the Turkish Cypriot clubs in late 1955 started to withdraw from the tournaments of CFA, Nea Salamina made efforts to convince them to continue. Despite the withdrawal of Turkish Cypriot clubs from the CFA, the Turkish players remained welcome in Nea Salamina. In 1962 Kallikas was transferred to Nea Salamis and in 1970 Neziak who was of Turkish origin was transferred to the club.[115] In 2004 Turkish Cypriots Imam and Oulousoi were transferred to Nea Salamis; by their presence at Nea Salamis these two players became the first Turkish Cypriotic footballers who took part in the championships of CAF in thirty years.[116][117]

On March 26, 2005 Nea Salamina played a friendly football match against the Turkish Cypriot Yeni Mosque (within the transcription Oulousoi), at Ammochostos Stadium, beating them with 6–0. It was the first match between a Greek Cypriot and a Turkish Cypriot club after 50 years. 2500 fans attended the match who sat together in the stands sending a message of peace. The football match was attended by representatives of the political leadership of both communities, local and sports authorities and the Church.[118]

Women's Soccer

In 2006, Nea Salamis created female football department, which took part in the women's events. In the first inning to 2006–07 Cypriot First Division, took third place and qualified for the cup final, where lost 1–3 against AEK Kokkinochorion in GSP Stadium. That same year won the Super Cup beating AEK Kokkinochorion with 2–1, in a game that was in Ammochostos Stadium in Larnaca.

In 2007–08, took second place. The same happened in 2008–09, losing the championship game to zero because of the champion Apollon Limassol, since in their game with the home side Nea Salamis, the referee stopped the match due to excessive presence of fans compared to the capacity of the stadium.[119][120] At the same time emerged as winter champions finished first at the end of the first round of the championship.

In 2008–09, the footballer of Nea Salamis, Skevi Antoniou became the first scorer of Cypriot First Division, scoring 64 goals.[121]

The club was forced to shut down part of the women's football in 2010 for economic reasons.
