History

After years of unsuccessful efforts and negotiations between the two older football clubs of Volos (Niki and Olympiakos) to be merged to create a strong football club for the city, finally in April 2017 discussions and efforts by Achilleas Beos, mayor of Volos, led to the creation of a new football club. It was decided Pydna Kitros to be dissolved and renamed and thus, Volos New Football Club was created, the official presentation of which was held on June 2.

The team, which took the position of Pydna Kitros in Gamma Ethniki for the 2017–18 season, began its preparation with significant transcriptional movements. Volos eventually won first place in Group 4 and 2nd in Group 1 of the Promotion Play-Offs, and they were promoted to the Football League.

Stadium

Volos' stadium is located in the Neapoli area in Volos, in particular at the end of Neapoli. Neapoli Municipal Stadium is constructed several years at this point, but in the summer of 2017 the Municipality of Volos refurbished it on behalf of Volos NFC who will later use it as a seat. It has a capacity of 2,500 tiers, while there is a shelter on the northwest side.
