The new swim power of Republic of Srpska
 

The news from the town of Banjaluka (Republic of Srpska) really assure us that the swimming in this part of the former Yugoslavia goes onward by the ‘seven miles’ steps. “Vrbas” and “Banjaluka” swimming clubs established just few years ago both from the town of Banjaluka, represent the most perspective swimming sources in this moment. The last 2000/2001 season showed that the professional approaches in the trainers engagements, private investments, worthy sponsorships and especially parents involving in the development of younger pioneer and pioneer categories (ages 10-14) brought them many successes.  As of our state to expand swim friendships and cooperation over the globe and especially in  Bosnia and Hercegovia, Croatia and Slovenia, let us introduce the best youth women swimmer in Republic of Srpska:

Ms. Tanja Racic (Vrbas Swimming Club)

Born in Banjaluka in 1991. Her first steps in swimming were made at Borac-Incel Swimming Club, Banjaluka where she overcame the techniques and practice duties and started with the competitor swimming. Since 1999, Ms. Racic competes for “Vrbas” Swim Team where she became the top swimmer in very short period of time. Great help Tanja has from her sister Slobodana (1989). Their international experiences are mostly compiled at the International meets in Republic of Srpska and Serbia, also at the National Championships in Yugoslavia. At the last few events in Yugoslavia this year, Ms. Tanja Racic won almost all first places in 100 m and 200 m butterfly, also 200 m I.M. in the category of the younger pioneers. At the YU National Younger Pioneer Championships 2001 (LC) organized in the town of Krusevac (Yugoslavia), on July 28, 2001 Ms. Tanja Racic won four gold medals in 100 m and 200 m Fly, 100 m Freestyle and 200 m I.M. and got the complimentary prize as the best women swimmer in the course of 2001.
