Our Teams
The great goal and vision of Evangelos Mantoulidis was the organization of the infrastructure departments (Mini – Pre-Kids – Children – Adolescents). A professor of philology, he believed that children through sports and especially from the sport of basketball acquire very powerful resources for their development (spiritual, physical, social, professional).
With methodical work, patience and perseverance and always guided by a pure and honest struggle, the results soon came, justifying him, as well as his worthy partners.
Cultural Athletics Association
The Cultural Athletics Association Evangelos Mantoulidis (MAS Mandoulides) was founded in 1970 under the name MAS Ippokratis.
In 1989 Evangelos Mantoulidis, founder of the Schools, assumed sponsorship of the team. The Men’s Basketball Team then competed in the E’ category of EKASTH. In 1992 Evangelos Mantoulidis assumed the management of the Association and the name of the group changed to MAS Mandoulides-Ippokratis, and then in 2002 MAS Mandoulides. In 2015 it is renamed “Evangelos Mantoulidis Sports and Educational Association” as a token of respect to its founder, Evangelos Mantoulidis.
The contribution of Evangelos Mantoulidis after he took the reins of the Association was truly great. The Men’s Team has risen in league every year since. In 1994, for the first time in its history, the team competed in the A’ league of EKASTH. In 1995 the team rose to the C’ National League. Since then, the team has been competing in national leagues (B – C National).
The team has been named National Champion in the C’ league 3 times (1998, 2002, 2009). In 2015, it takes the name of Evangelos Mantoulidis in his honor and is renamed “Educational Sports Association Evangelos Mantoulidis”.
Our Distinctions
The great successes of the infrastructure departments of the “Evangelos Mantoulidis Educational Sports Club” at the pan-Hellenic level in recent years (two championships for teenagers and seven for children), as well as the quality work done in the Club, resulting in the selection of a number of players who compete in national teams , A1 and Euroleague teams, are a collective record that will be hard to beat in the future.
