Dragan Djukic in his own style : „Tell me what you want, I’ll tell you who you are“

Dragan Djukic. Handball coach who left a deep mark in handball, where it prices and most especially abroad. Currently in his Belgrade where he wants to contribute handball Serbia. After a while, after which took place “ round table “ called the Handball Today and Tomorrow ‘, whose moderator we asked him about the idea of ​​which was held together.

1. What do you initiated to organize an event like this?

– I wish I could be wrong, but unfortunately there was a similar set of (too) many years ago, so I do hope that at some new we will not wait even that much.
Handball sport definitely deserves developments like this and I hope and believe that this was only the first in a series. And the situation is not serious, (and it is!), I do not see why they would not gather, discuss, share their thoughts and ideas. I’m really proud of how everything went and I’d be happy if the initiative of Mr. Djurkovic to a near term, and hold a conference handball state with ex-Yu area a reality.

2. What led you to choose exactly these guests?

– First I have to point out that it was a pleasure to welcome the people of this profile and true privilege to be in their company.
Pretend in Serbia any project that you want to be considered serious, and not to call him Professor Pokrajac by me is unacceptable. If you are someone whom the whole world accepts with appreciation in Serbia closed the door, then it is not his personal problem but a problem for all of us!
Prof. Sibyl is someone who focuses on education trainers and EHF and national level (in coaching organized by Slovenia and the Ljubljana Faculty) and at the same time is still active as a coach. Balanced, studious, inspiring, interesting.
Dragan Adzic was the day before our rally declared EHF coach of the year and I feel deep gratitude because he took the time in the strait between the representative and the club’s commitment to being with us and together we show people that there are different faces of handball, it prettier, she future – those who truly believe all of us.
Bozidar Djurkovic also a big thank you, because he had the courage to appear on behalf RSS try to respond to some „tricky“ questions.
There is no serious debate without different opinions and no solution without the participation of all structures.
And do not forget of course the Faculty of Sport, which has opened its doors and stood behind the entire project, helping one idea to become a reality.

3. The general impression of all who followed the debate that the time provided for conversation flew, and they wanted a sequel, what is your opinion?

When 120 minutes fit in a moment, when all the while the attention of listeners and guests to the maximum level when all say they would like more, then you can really tell that it was a pleasure to be part of it. My role in this was completely different from the usual me and I tried to take advantage of every inch of time for conversation, aware of the uniqueness of the moment. And what should be emphasized, and applies to everyone, is that the discussion has been on the level of academic institutions where it is maintained and that we are all together showed that the handball could talk in a different way, responsible, and professional arguments in true the meaning of the word.

4. Your opinion of the Community coach of Serbia, which in the opinion of the president of one of the best in Europe?

With respect and recognition of all that has been done so far – because we almost forget not so long ago when the organization trainer was considered heresy and said there was no, the only thing in sport evaluated the results, everything else is our own perception of „reality „. To be the best, we must learn the most and the best, we have to be different not by rhetoric, but by the facts, I would not oppose it but let’s not forget that the recommendations and opinions of trainers and training institutions are not much respected in the years behind us. Whether this is one of the reasons why we are in a situation where we are, judge for yourself, but if the officials say that we are one of the best alliances, if you are of like mind and coaches, and players have long vase „one of the most talented in the world,“ as that in the last ten years, we have a total of three medals from 29 competitions held in both categories (seniors silver with EP Belgrade 2012, seniors silver in the World Championships in Belgrade in 2013 and silver cadets from the World Cup 2008 in Slovakia)? Be aware of your ignorance is a great step to knowledge is the motto of your site, and which I quite follow the situation in the handball world, for the last fifteen years in it and I do, I stumbled upon a statement of similar nature in the French, Danes, Spaniards or Croats.

5. Often during exposure bundles two words – SYSTEM and responsibilities, it is pointed out in his speech the Secretary of State for Sport Predrag Perunicic?

We are fortunate to be in such an important place of man in rugby and I am not sure that we use it in the best way. Predrag is someone who is often through career was driven by emotion and the presentation was very emotional sensing problems more than other clerks ministry as someone who comes from our sport. Similarly, thinking that the system is something that must exist but also that it should be set to the highest level in front of all the sports structures. The state is one that is financed and it sets guidelines and monitors their implementation. Branch organizations are obliged to create and implement their own long-term plans and work programs, development strategy … There’s nowhere really do not see room for improvisation.
And, when we mention the word responsibility, then we have to get going every individual of their own responsibility. Liability for spoken promise, for non-implementation of agreed, for failures. At the same duty of us coaches is to protect the other participants – members of the coaching staff, the players, their team in general, because we have no better and only ourselves we can safely change for the better. General could lose the battle, but not unnecessarily lose any soldier …

6. Given these problems, what do you think is the final solution for the Serbian handball, specifically?

To return to our own understanding of handball, to select and choose not gather, we do not lose anyone because we lose so all together, to finally know what it looks Serbian national team and what is the characteristic of Serbian handball school etc etc. Working in the world I have learned to plan ahead, and I do not mean any harm but we have lists of players, preparation of plans, budgets, goals for Tokyo? And Rio? Paraphrase a famous saying: „Tell me what you want, I’ll tell you who you are!“

7. Do you believe such a collection could start something and change?

There were many examples in the history not only of sport, where one „small“ event had far-reaching and serious consequences. Maybe it’s not up to us to change the whole world, but let’s try to change themselves. I do not believe that we can better, more, otherwise I would not have played sports and I always try to convey to people that I work with.
We have already mentioned a conference on the future of handball, SEHA League has become commonplace, and the reality, the realization of joint competition of junior category before us, something is still going on! At that circumstances force us, that forces us reality of the moment, or we up together or we ourselves only down.

8. Your message to everyone in handball Serbia?

We must never forget that handball is primarily a game , one of the most beautiful and it is our duty to promote it in the best way. Often we are not aware , but generations to come following our every step , absorb and learn, and at the same time to see everything! Gather it all , hover over the vanity , resentment and “ old wounds “ and gather the best that this country has to come together to fight for what belongs to us ! Because of ourselves and of course even more due to future generations , it has to be our only guiding principle .

I am an optimist , and I often say to themselves and the people around you, if Croatia can win medals and to be Serbian , if that same Serbia can water polo , volleyball, basketball , why would not he and handball ?! Learn to fight for it ideas, persistence , knowledge, energy because sport does not begin or end with us and our history remembers only by what we leave behind us.
