PAS Giannina sports club seasonal preparations

Overview

The PAS Giannina sports club has initiated preparations for its upcoming competitive seasons across various departments.

In football, the women’s team began training for the Gamma Ethniki division following a traditional blessing ceremony. The men’s team has also returned to high-intensity training and tactical drills, though the club is managing administrative difficulties, including a sixth FIFA ban on the PAE PAS Giannina accounts.

As the summer pre-season concluded, the men’s team played a final friendly match against Makedonikos Siatistas, resulting in a 2-2 draw. Following the match, coach Christos Raptis expressed dissatisfaction with the team’s performance, citing a lack of focus and recurring errors in the first defensive zone.

During a break in the third round of the championship, the men’s team is scheduled to play a friendly match against AE Nea Seleukeia at the Zosimides Stadium. Coach Raptis intends to use this match to maintain player rhythm and address technical weaknesses identified in recent games against Anagennisi Arta and Thyella Katsika. The club is also reportedly working to acquire two experienced players to strengthen the roster while maintaining financial stability. Following the friendly, the team will focus on their upcoming match against Veria.

Additionally, the club held a presentation for its amateur sports departments, including swimming, artistic swimming, fencing, and volleyball. The women’s basketball team is preparing for top-division and European competition, while the men’s basketball team aims for promotion to National League 1. In amateur football, PAS Giannina recently advanced in the Amateur Cup after a victory against Aris Filiaiton. Regarding the fencing department, the club recently concluded its fifth annual training camp in Konitsa.
