HONORABLE MEDAL FOR CROWN PRINCE FROM RED STAR TABLE TENNIS CLUB

Belgrade, 13 April 2006 – His Royal Highness Crown Prince Alexander II welcomed today delegation of the Red Star Table-tennis club led by Director of the club Mr Slobodan Tankosic.

On this occasion, delegation of the club gave honourable medal and final report from traditional international table-tennis junior tournament „Fourth King Peter II Karadjordjevics’ Cup“, held in January in Belgrade, under patronage of HRH Crown Prince Alexander II.

“Sport is extremely important for the development of Serbian youth. Working habits and psycho-physical improvements are visible when someone is in sports. Therefore, it is of the most importance that you, members of Red Star table-tennis club have to be as active as possible working with our youth. One of the ways to do so is to organize tournaments like the one in January, named after my late father, His Majesty King Peter II”, emphasised Crown Prince Alexander II:

“Table-tennis gave us many medals already, and will bring more. The most important medal you can win is the trust of young people and their wish to play table-tennis instead of going out, to the street. Thank you for your continuous efforts that you are making in order to win such medal”, stated Crown Prince addressing to the delegation of Red Star table-tennis club.
