Overview

The 2026‑27 season schedule for Greek handball, women’s basketball and volleyball continues to take shape. The Handball Premier confirmed a 22‑matchday programme from 19‑20 September 2026 to late March 2027, with PAOK Handball opening at home against Ionikos Autovalue and a second round slated for February‑April 2027. In women’s basketball, PAOK’s women will open against Panathinaikos on 4 October, and the club renewed head coach Angelos Aggelidis for the season, targeting a top‑place finish in the Allwyn WBL. Panathinaikos Basketball announced its EuroLeague slate, beginning at home on 24 September versus Paris.

Volleyball developments progressed: PAOK secured a definitive joint‑ownership agreement with businessman Antonis Ts alopoulos, who will co‑fund, manage and sit on a joint administration committee for the men’s team. Negotiations with the PAOK Sports Arena operator entered their final stage, with a signing expected within days to confirm venue use and financial benefits, alongside a €20 season‑ticket card for indoor events. Additionally, Armenian Piraeus volleyball appointed former Olympiacos player Nikos Kovatsov to lead its academies and assist the senior squad.

These moves aim to strengthen youth development, senior performance and fan engagement across the club’s major sports sections for the 2026‑27 campaign.
