History

Panionios Women's basketball team was founded in 1947. It took part in the local championship of Athens-Piraeus, since those years there wasn't Panhellenic women championship. The club ceased its activities for some years but it returned in action at the late 1990s. Panionios achieved to win the Panhellenic championship immediately after its promotion to A1 Ethniki.^[2] It is the only time that a Greek team wins a championship coming from a second division. The next years, Panionios is weakened and the current season it plays in A2 Ethniki.
