Nea Salamis
Nea Salamis Ammochostos or Nea Salamina Ammochostos is a Cypriot football club which comes from the city of Ammochostos (also known by its Romanized name: Famagusta). It has adopted its name from the ancient Greek city of Salamis or Salamina (Greek: Σαλαμίς) near modern day Ammochostos. The club was founded in 1948. Since the occupation of the north part of the island through invasion by Turkish troops in 1974, Nea Salamis is a refugee team and since then is based in Larnaca.

Since 1955, Nea Salamina belongs to Cypriot First Division, except some short interruptions when they were relegated. The team reached their best position ever respectively as third in the seasons 1955/56, 1965/66, 1992/93 and 1994/95.

In 1990 Nea Salamina achieved its greatest success, when they won the Cyprus Cup, beating Omonia Nicosia 3-2 in the final. The same year they won the Cyprus FA Shield (Super Cup) by beating APOEL Nicosia 1-0. Nea Salamina played in the Cup final in other two occasions (1966, 2001) but were beaten on both occasions by Apollon Limassol.

As Cup winners, Nea Salamina played for first time in european cups in 1990, where they were beaten in the Cup Winners Cup first round twice clearly Aberdeen FC. The club participated in 1997 for the Intertoto Cup,they eliminated however with only a victory after the first groups games from. In the season 2000/01 Nea Salamis, after two victories against the Albanian Vllaznia Shkoder, reached the second round of the Intertoto, eliminated then however against Austria Vienna.

The colours of Nea Salamina are red and white and its home stadium is "Ammochostos Stadium" ( means "Famagusta"), with capacity of 5000 seats, which is in Larnaca.
