“Higher…with Olympic ideals and values”
The ALMA Athletics Club is a modern athletics club based in Limassol, dedicated to promoting track and field and the values it represents.
It was founded by Kyriakos Ioannou, world champion and Olympian in high jump, who, after retiring from professional sports, took the initiative—together with a group of friends—to establish ALMA, giving back to track and field.
Among the founding members are also Olympians Milan Trajkovic and Konstantinos Stathelakos. Sadly, Kostas passed away too soon, but as a small tribute to his memory and his contribution, ALMA’s athletics events are dedicated to him.
ALMA is officially registered as a not for profit organisation (club/association) under Cyprus law with Registry No. LEM|S|0262. It has also received its official Sports Recognition by the Cyprus Sports Organization (CSO) and is listed in the CSO’s special registry under No. 1151. The registration with the Amateur Athletic Association of Cyprus (KOEAS) is still pending, a process that started in 2024 but has unfortunately been delayed.
Our Philosophy
At ALMA, we believe that sports are more than just performance. They are about discipline, respect, teamwork, solidarity and enjoyment.
Our athletes train using modern methods, in a safe and friendly environment, under the guidance of experienced and certified coaches.
Our goal is to cultivate a love for athletics and a healthy lifestyle from an early age, providing children and young people with the necessary tools to develop both athletically and personally.
