Niki Volos was founded in 1924 as Gymnastic Club of Volos' Refugees. After two years, in 1926, it was decided to change the name of the sports club. Panionios and Apollon were the first names that fell on the table and in fact there was a strong disagreement. The solution was provided by the then president, Maurikios Panas, who, seeing a statuette of Nike of Paionios, proposed the name "Niki Volos".
Football club of Niki participated for the first time in the championship of the first category before the establishment of the First National, as in 1953âÂÂ54 she was the winner of the Northern Group and this gave her the ticket for the final phase of the National Division Championship 1953âÂÂ54, Six teams (Athens (2) â Piraeus â Thessaloniki â North â South) took the 5th place with 16 points, ahead of Panahaiki, who finished the championship with 13.
