History
The club was established in 2012 ahead of that season's MicroLeague edition. The team's first season was unsuccessful, with the Eagles occupying the last place in the group stage and failing to advance to the playoffs. The situation drastically changed with MicroLeague's next season, with the team scoring 2 victories and a defeat during the group stage, advancing to the knock-outs. In the semi-final the Eagles drew with the now-defunct fellow Mouzeliot club KAV, which they defeated facing the defending champions Spartak in the final. In a tight game with the second lowest score in the season, the Eagles managed to grab the title scoring a 3-point shot in the dying seconds of the game to secure a victory.
The Eagles subsequently participated in the next 2 editions of the MicroLeague - now rebranded to AshuLeague, since most teams in the league hailed from Ashukovo - however none of the seasons was completed.
The team now participates in the virtual football league of Rhomania, A Ethniki. The team was awarded the Community Shield of the 2019-2020 season after the league was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic
