Fostiras FC and Kallithea FC are two of the clubs that achieved this year their goal of promotion – the first to the 2nd and the latter to the 1st Division. As a result, both their stadia will be upgraded during the summer off-season.


More specifically,
TAVROS STADIUM will have new floodlights and a new pitch installed; a roof will be constructed over the main stand; and the press and fans' facilities will be upgraded.

As for
KALLITHEA STADIUM, the changes are expected to be of a larger scale (including a new stand) and works will probably take somewhat longer to be finished. The reason for this is the fact that the stadium has been chosen as the official Olympic Training Venue for the football referees in the 2004 Games. As a result, the works will involve the almost total remodeling of the stadium, known affectionately to fans as "El Paso".
