The Croatian Judo Federation are a pillar of the European Judo community when it comes to the hosting events. Not only do they host for the EJU but also for IJF
Croatia now has a world champion. Croatia has a World Judo Tour event, a strong one! Croatia has a small population but a big interest in judo, a sport which is now a mainstay in the top ten most popular sports in the country. Is this a happy accident or part of a planned strategy? Well, the answer to that is very clear.
2021 was a successful year for Croatian judo with the world title of Barbara Matic in Budapest in June and the high level organisation of the Grand Prix in September among the best moments of the season.
