[[Ethnikos Piraeus F.C.]] had a longstanding presence in [[Super League Greece]] and also used the Karaiskakis Stadium as home ground, but in recent years the club has competed in lower divisions and currently plays home matches at the [[Helliniko Olympic Complex#Olympic Baseball Centre|Helleniko Stadium]], in [[Ellinikon]]. In [[basketball]], [[Olympiacos B.C.]] is the only major club from Piraeus, one of the most successful at domestic and European level, and its home arena is the [[Peace and Friendship Stadium]], while the [[volleyball]] department of the same club, [[Olympiacos S.C.]], is the dominant domestically and has made great success in European competitions as well. Piraeus rides really high in [[water polo]], where [[Ethnikos Piraeus Water Polo Club|Ethnikos Piraeus]] and [[Olympiacos Water Polo Club|Olympiacos]] departments have entirely dominated in Greece; the first is considered the "Emperor" of the sport and the latter is the only Greek water polo club to have been crowned European Champion.
