Summer and autumn in Attica gain an intense sports pulse, as Municipalities of the Region organize competitions and tournaments open to all, with a backdrop of the sea, greenery, history, and always with the aim of strengthening mass sports.
Among other things, the following interesting sports activities are planned to take place in the near future:
The Municipality of Galatsi is planning a unique professional boxing event on June 1st at Alsos Veikou, with the participation of elite boxers from the national team and top sports clubs (AEK, Olympiacos, Panathinaikos).
