Ethnikos Alexandroupoli F.C. (Greek: Εθνικός Αλεξανδρούπολης) is an association football club based in Alexandroupoli, a city in the Evros prefecture of northern Greece. It was established in 1927.

History

Ethnikos participated 7 times in the Beta Ethniki between 1963 and 1974,[1] 8 times in the Gamma Ethniki between 1983 and 1994[2] and in the 1972 Greek Amateur Cup final as G.S. Alexandroupoli, where it lost against Fivos Kremasti at Karaiskaki Stadium.[3]

In 1969, due to a law by the regime of the Colonels which ruled Greece at the time,[4] Ethnikos was merged with Doxa Alexandroupoli to form G.S. Alexandroupoli. In 1973, Ethnikos re-established its football department and in 1995 it was merged with A.O. Alexandroupoli, a club formed by G.S. Alexandroupoli and Kyklopas Makris, to form Orfeas Alexandroupoli, which in 1999 it was renamed Enosi Thraki.[5] In the same year, Ethnikos Alexandroupoli was re-established at the local Evros championships,[6] where it currently plays.
