Omonoia Aradippou (Greek: Ομόνοια Αραδίππου) is a Cypriot professional football club based in the Municipality of Aradippou, a settlement in the outskirts of the city of Larnaca.
The club was founded on 4 April 1929[1] and they were the Champions of the Cypriot Second Division for the season 2023–24. For the season 2025-26 they will compete again in the Cypriot First Division.
They have competed in the Cypriot First Division several times in the past. The 1995–1996 season was their most recent one in the First Division.[2]
Home Ground
Omonia Aradippou play their home games at the Municipal Aradippou stadium, but for the season 2024-25 the Antonis Papadopoulos Stadium will be their host [3][4]
Unification Tries
Omonia Aradippou has a long-standing rivalry with their neighboring club Ermis Aradippou.
However, through the years and decades there have been several tries and cases where both sides have negotiated their unification on a football level. The negotiations have always been brought down due to different economic and political issues raised by either sides.
People of Aradippou agree though that the Municipality of Aradippou should have had one and only football team, rather than the people been separated for economic and political issues. However, yet there has not been a settlement.
Thus Omonoia Aradippou will compete in the Cypriot First Division for the season 2025-26.
Culture and Folklore Association
The Club is also affiliated with a Cultural and Folklore Association on an organized basis since 1981. The Cultural and Folklore Association covers a variety of issues (national, economic, social, cultural) with artistic events, lectures, demonstrations, street markets, blood donations and other activities.
