Iraklis - the old logo

One of the oldest and richest clubs in Greek soccer history is Iraklis of Salonica. A "true" athletic organization that on top of its soccer department it has twenty other departments featuring men's and women's sports. The club was founded in 1899 as "Omilos Filomouson". In 1908 a "bitter part" of the initial club formed the Iraklis Macedonian Gymnastic Club. Later on it was renamed to "Othomanikos Ellinikos Gymnastikos Sillogos Thessalonikis o Iraklis". And then again later on it became "Gymnastikos Sillogos o Iraklis".

The founders of "Gireos" (the old one) as it's known today are Apostolos Kosmopoulos, G. Sotiriadis, and N. Manos. The first years of Iraklis were very hard since very few were those people that got involved with athletics in the area of Thessaloniki. During those years the club was kept alive by Kosmopoulos and G. Vaporis, two athletes that made sure that the name Iraklis was known throughout Greece.

The first soccer field was presented to Iraklis in the area of Skamnies. There every afternoon the young athletes of Thessaloniki would go and practice. Later on with the help of Eleftherios Venizelos and the Archibishop Gennadiou a field was donated near the University of Thessaloniki.

It was in that field that the first title of Thessaloniki was celebrated in 1926-1927 season. But still this stadium would not be "home" to Iraklis. In 1938 a decision by the government forced Iraklis to remain "homeless" for a period of time. Finally in 1948 Iraklis was able to get a field near today's Kaftantzoglio field. And once more Iraklis was still facing tough competition from the University of Thessaloniki.

The problem for a home field finally came to an end with the help of Asterios Papadopoulos (president in 1965). A field was purchased near the airport of Micra, where the official opening took place in 1971.

As for it's soccer contributions Iraklis showed a very strong soccer power after the war years especially the period between 1946-1947. That particular season the club came in second place after Olympiakos with just one point difference. That same year Iraklis went all the way to the Greek Cup finals but lost against the team of Olympiakos.

In 1976 in the Greek cup final between the two teams of Iraklis and Olympiakos the "old one" came out on top to win it after an outstanding game!
