Olympiacos Piraeus is the largest Greek sports-club and one of the most important multi-sports clubs in Europe, with European titles (championships and cups) won in basketball, volleyball, waterpolo and athletics and a Balcan Cup won in football. It was founded in 1925 at the port city of Piraeus, where it still plays.

Olympiacos CFP is the largest and most popular Greek football club, part of the Olympiacos sports club.

It was March 10 1925 when the two older Piraeus clubs ("Piraeus Sports and Football Club" and "Football Fan Club of Piraeus") decided to merge forming a new club that would come to be known as "Olympiacos Fan Club of Piraeus" a.k.a. "The Legend" after the classic side of the 1930's which won a hatful of titles.

It is worth noting that amongst the founding fathers of the newly formed team were five brothers that were all football players! These were the famous Andrianopoulos brothers, (John, Dinos, George, Bill and Leonidas), that for a time formed the full attacking formation of Olympiacos.

Olympiacos won the Greek Championship for the first time in the 1930-31 period and has since become the most decorated Greek team winning the Greek Championship 32 times out of a total of 68. Indeed they have more championships to their name than arch-rivals AEK Athens FC and Panathinaikos FC put together.

The team also holds the record for the greatest number of consecutive Championships won: Seven during the 1996-97 to the 2002-03 periods. (Previous record was also held by Olympiakos: Six during the 1953-54 to 1958-59 period).
