Mr. Vladimir Stanisavljevic one of the top former Yugoslav swimmer and the national record holder in long distance disciplines, marathon and triathlon, now Coach in Melbourne, Australia.

On his recently inspection of Belgrade, at the end of October 2001, we've been honored to have him by our pool at some of our training. Really many useful suggestions, personal experiences, small secrets of the biggest Australian and world swim coaches, etc. we've got for the first time live. Some of his concrete words, we recorded deep in our mind.

Igor Rasula, the captain of our Team, is indebted also for some special gifts which he got from the hands of the man to whom he has really enormous respect.

After so many months of expecting

Vlado, da kazem hvala za sve tvoje reci podrske, preko nasih web kontakata, znam da je jako malo...

Ako Ti kazem, da si jedini covek na svetu u plivanju, koga osecam izuzetno bliskim, a u stvari si miljama i miljama daleko...mozda nece biti iskreno...

Sa ogromnim strahopostovanjem odzvanjaju mi Tvoje poslednje reci ... "plivaj, a ja cu pratiti tvoje rezultate"...

Mislim da nisam sve to zasluzio, ali znaj da ima jedan mali covek na svetu koji ce uvek biti Tvoj postovalac i zaista veliki poklonik.... i pokusati da makar krajickom dosegne ono sto si ti u Jugoslovenskom plivanju znacio...

Znam da sve to nije dovoljno, ali je od srca...veruj.

Igor Rasula
