Mykonos B.C. and also known for sponsorship reasons as Mykonos Betsson, is a Greek professional basketball club that is located on the island of Mykonos and currently competes in the Greek Basketball League. The home ground of the team is a indoor hall called "P. Chanioti Ano Mera Indoor Hall".

History

[edit]

Mykonos basketball club was founded in 1981, and in 1989 became a member of the Hellenic Basketball Federation.[2] On July 14, 2023, it was announced that Mykonos gained a wild card to compete to the Greek A2 Elite League for the first time in the club's history.[3][4]

On May 8, 2025, Mykonos defeated Neaniki Estia Megaridas for the Final Four of the Greek A2 Elite League that took place at Giannis Bourousis Karditsa New Indoor Arena, and gained the promotion to the Greek Basket League for the first time in the club's history.[5]

Arena

[edit]

For a long period of time, the club didn't have its own indoor hall in the island of Mykonos and was forced to play their home games to the island of Tinos. In 2020, the new arena in Mykonos called Panagiotis Chaniotis Ano Mera Indoor Hall was opened, and since then, the club gives there its home games.[6][7] After the promotion of Mykonos to the Greek Basket League, the arena was renovated and the capacity was increased to approximately 1.000 spectators.
