Throughout its history, the club has provided great services to the Corfu community. Today, it continues to offer the opportunity for hundreds of young people from Corfu to engage in sports and excel at both national, European, and global levels, which is a source of admiration and pride.
It is a sports association with strong roots in Corfu society, and an organisation that commands respect both on and off the field. It is often referred to as a "historic" club.
