Aiginiakos Football Club is a Greek football club, based in Aiginio, Pieria. It was established in 1972.

History

Aiginiakos appeared in Gamma Ethniki's Northern Group in 1989–90,[1] but finished the season in the last place and relegated to the regional championship.[2]

In 2012, Aiginiakos lifted the Pieria FCA Cup in 2012 after beating AE Peristasi 1–0 in the final[3] and were supposed to play in the 2012–13 Delta Ethniki after having ended first in the A' Division of the local Pieria championships.[4] However, they took the place of fellow Pieria-based club Platamon Academy in the Football League 2 – the latter were Group 3 champions in the 2011–12 Delta Ethniki but could not obtain a professional licence to play in the 2012–13 Football League 2. They merged with Platamón CF and got the licence needed. In Football League 2 things were easy for the teams, as they knew that the top five teams would be promoted to Football League. Aiginiakos got the 4th place with ease, and were promoted to Football League for the first time in their history.[1]
