After three main occasions that befell in Sarajevo prior to now few days, the place over 1000 judoka paraded by this metropolis, we spoke with the driving pressure of judo sports activities in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Dr. Branislav Crnogorac.
To begin with, I want to thank EJU and the President Dr. Toth Laszlo for the chance to organise these three huge judo occasions, the Veterans Championship, the Kata Championship and the Kodokan Kata Seminar. It was very difficult for us, no matter earlier experiences, this was a particular expertise, I need to say that it was exhaustive, as a result of we needed to meet all the factors of those competitions, which the truth is are notably demanding.
The Judo Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina has confirmed to be a superb organiser of judo competitions, provided that lately they’ve organised numerous competitions, from cadet to now veteran stage. They made historical past by organising the Sarajevo European Judo Hopes Cup, in addition to Ne-waza and Tailored Judo inside the talked about competitions within the two weeks. The results of the work is actually the “Better of the Finest” award for 2022, when the affiliation obtained the award for the perfect technical organiser in that yr.
There’s an attention-grabbing story, in 2003 we organised a European Championship for the primary time, and it is vitally attention-grabbing to level out that at the moment we had been declared the perfect technical organiser of all European championships by EJU on the congress in London. Then we realised that we now have a sure expertise to do huge worldwide competitions. From then till in the present day, we now have organised numerous cups, European Open, European Championships, we now have organised two U18 World Championships, in 2015 and 2022, and in 2022 we had been declared “Better of the perfect” within the competitors of all European competitions and naturally we’re notably pleased with that truth.
Chief, coach, father. He devoted his life to Judo and nearly everybody will point out him as an important particular person for judo in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Nevertheless, he’ll put his crew first.
Our love for judo is immeasurable, we now have a skilled crew and contemplating such numerous organized worldwide competitions, we attempt to be higher yearly and what’s particularly necessary is that we all the time give our greatest and we reach that. My judo journey has been happening for six many years, with the truth that I began as a competitor, however in a short time turned the coach that I’m in the present day. I used to be the president of the Judo Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina for a number of mandates, and in the present day I’m the honorary president. Mainly, nobody doubts that I used to be the chief all that point, and naturally that epithet flatters me, however I attempt to create a high quality new occasion or a high quality new outcome yr after yr. This yr we had numerous competitions in Sarajevo, the European Cup for juniors and seniors, for the primary time the historic European Cup for hopefuls, and right here we’re simply ending three main occasions, the European Championship for Veterans, the European Kata Championship and the Kodokan Kata Seminar and Examination 2024.
In the long run, Dr. Crnogorac didn’t disguise his ambitions to proceed organising main competitions sooner or later.
We are attempting to proceed the streak of success, we won’t cease, it will likely be difficult for us if we perhaps organise the World Championship for veterans subsequent yr. I consider that we’ll be as much as the duty once more and we don’t know every other approach besides to do our greatest. Lastly, as soon as once more, particular because of EJU President Dr Toth Laszlo and IJF President Marius Vizer for the various years of steady assist and belief they provide us.
