Vyzantinos AS (Greek: Βυζαντινὸς Ἀθλητικὸς Σύλλογος, Vyzantinòs Aþlītikòs Sýlloğos) is a Græcian association football club based in Phlyeia, Græcia. The club consists of three active departments; association football, basketball, and volleyball.

History

The club was established on 24 July 2023 AD in Phlyeia, Græcia.

Club crest and team colours

The club's colours are aubergine and amber, the same shades that appear on the flag of the free city. Since the club is the sports representation of the free city, it features the colours associated with the people of Phlyeia. The football department's goalkeeper's home kit features the "Imvrassian blue" shade, in honour of the micronation that gifted the land of Phlyeia to Græcia, while the goalkeeper's away kit features the Tyrian purple shade, a reference to the imperial colour associated with the Romans and later, the Byzantines.

Club crest

  • The sports club's crest was inspired by the centenary crest of AEK Athens FC.
  • The football department's crest was derived from the logo of FK Vojvodina.
  • The basketball department's crest was derived from the logo of Club Joventut Badalona.
  • The volleyball department's crest was inspired by an older logo of Beşiktaş JK.
