May 10, 2025
The decision by the Sports Facilities Committee of the Cyprus Sports Organization (KOA) to grant swimming lanes to APOEL has sparked strong reactions from the Nautical Clubs of Nicosia, Famagusta, and Kyrenia. The clubs argue that this decision threatens their sustainability and violates principles of good governance, especially with possible conflicts of interest. They highlight that they will suffer serious consequences from limited access to sports facilities in the summer. Overall, this decision reverses the state policy that has supported refugee clubs.
