APOEL Volleyball Club is the volleyball team of APOEL, the Nicosia-based sport club. Founded in 1926, it is one of the oldest volleyball clubs in Cyprus. APOEL was a founding member of the Cyprus Volleyball Federation.
APOEL VC won 8 championships (one held by the Greek Volleyball Federation, one by SEGAS and six by the Cyprus Volleyball Federation) and 5 Cups. The 1980's was the most successful decade for APOEL. The team won 6 Championships and 5 Cups between 1979 and 1985. Also, the decade of the 90's was amazing for the youth teams of APOEL (U15, U17, U21) by winning 16 trophies in just 7 years. Since then, the team had some good seasons with participations in 2003–04 CEV Top Teams Cup and 2004–05 CEV Cup, but without any title outcome. In the 2008–09 season APOEL relegated to the Second Division and suspended its activities due to financial difficulties. That was the first and only time which a team from APOEL multisport club was relegated.
