“Fencing is a noble, chivalric sport and I am honoured that a year ago you approached me with the request to name this club after the great Karadjordje, the founder of the Dynasty. I was amazed when I found out that you have achieved so much and won more than 20 awards in domestic and international competitions”, the Crown Prince said and added, “Everyone is well aware of the importance of sport training for the children. Everyone who spends free time training instead of being on the street has made a good decision. “
