NOTK (Tzitzifies Kallithea Yacht Club) was founded in 1958, in the area of “Delta” Falirou, with the aim of developing and promoting Triangle and Offshore sailing, as well as other nautical sports in Greece.
 Since its establishment, NOTK has demonstrated exceptional activity in Triangle and Offshore sailing, with its great athletes having honored the country in international sailing events and particularly the Olympic gold medal won by Sofia Bekatorou in the 470 sailing category, during the 2004 Olympic Games in Athens, as well as the Olympic Bronze medal in the Yngling sailing class (women's), won by Sofia Bekatorou, Sofia Papadopoulou and Virginia Kravarioti during the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing.
Participations and distinctions in the sport of Canoe-Kayak, are also worth mentioning.
Every year NOTK organizes grand sailing races, the top event being the “Cyclades Regatta” International Sailing Race that started in 1995. Year after year the number of Greek and international boats and crews participating in the event has steadily increased. NOTK also organizes two other well-known Offshore Races: the Poros Race, the Korfos Race and co-organizes the ATHENS TROPHY.
The participations and distinctions of NOTK in the sport of Canoe-Kayak are also great. The division ranks as one of the best there is, working methodically and constantly highlighting new athletes and champions.
At the same time, all these years we make sure that the memory of the founders of NOTK remains indelible and as a small tribute to all of them, is the continuous operation of the fishing department, which then, according to the calls of the times, became the Sports Fishing Department of NOTK.
