Believe it or not, CroatianSports.com turns 9 years old today!
It’s been an incredible journey where we have not only built an online community for Croatians and Croatian sports fans alike, but we have met lifelong friends along the way. Thank you all for your endless support, comments and criticism.
Please share your best moment over the years with us!
Obsessed with this website, keep up the great work!
Thanks guys for the great job you provide. It’s nice to see another Pavela out there.
Thanks guys!
Hey guys… selling a few pieces on ebay. Once again paring down the collection. I’ve got a drazen shirt, croatia jacket, and hajduk stuff. Please take a look so these items can get to a good home.

I was also going to post to XT but it has been years since I’ve logged in and can’t recall my info for the life of me.
Also while I have this space if there are any Croats in Washington frequenting the Slav Hall in Tacoma or gathering to watch games please do be in touch. I miss a sense of Croatian community since I moved from greater New York.

Nine years???!!! To think, because of this site, I was invited to a certain wedding and traveled to Dubrovnik to meet the great Denis Svircic, who in turn traveled my city in Florida. Few Years later, met up with the famous Ante Kvartuc in Miami. Pretty crazy guys. Let’s keep it up.
Congrats!
I check CroatianSports.com on daily basis. You guys are doing a great job.
Hvala.

Such an epic day. It was after the Champions League Final. I think Bayern and Inter. Walked up top at Henneseys and saw some dude with a Croatian handball jersey…
And the rest is history!

“bosnian” club lol
76’s trade Ilyasova and pave way for Saric to finish season as starting PF.
26 games to let his game rip!
Šarić is a baller. He continues to stroke the 3 ball and strengthen his core, he will become an All-Star. He needs a little more lift on his jumper and finishing at the rim. His ball handling and court sense is there already.
Natural leader.
2017 eurobasket should be fun for Croatia.
like it was a blogspot yesterday
I just want to say i am really grateful for the work you guys do in keeping the site up as a place for us all to congregate and also the comraderie of my fellow patrons of the site.
This site enhances my experience of following Cro athletes greatly i have to say; both having others to share the victories with and also commiserate the inevitable losses with – makes it easier somehow.
Not sure what my favourite memory would be – off the top of my head, watching live and posting on the site during – i think it was 22 March 2013 – at Maksimir when we schooled some Serb wankfests. That was a great night all round where everything went well for us so that would be up there if not the best!
Nine years ago today I was at the Dinamo Hajduk game at Poljud in my 20’s where my biggest worry was where I was going to party. Nine years later I’m expecting my first kid in the next couple of weeks.
My best CSR moments were Tottenham 2010 in San Jose and when Gotovina was acquitted. Great times.
(Shot out to the Miracle on Ice, 37 years ago today. Arguably the best sports moment of the 20th century)
World tour for the 10 year anniversary!
My son is 9 years old.
When staying up all night when he was baby, I would follow the posts of the day.
For years raising a young family in NYC, going back home to Croatia was not possible.
This sight was a vital connection to Ljepa naša.
Seeing long haired Denis and mini Ante in the “Alpine” was a trip.
I was so impressed to see young Hrvati serving the community.
For some reason we struggle to do that enough in the US these days.
In the early days of CSR, my sleep deprived posts were defensive, especially around Luka Modric.
I have learned to appreciate all the perspectives from our prva generacija.
I feel the site has chronicled the rebirth as a footballing power.
Our time is now and CS is there to celebrate it.
Basketball is back too.
Sve najbolje.
Živili
My favourite moment in Croatian Sports history is that time I was drinking at a bar in California when I noticed that a real life celebrity was at the same bar! It was the Legend Ante Kvartuc! hahah I had a chance over the years to also have drinks with Denis too. You guys are both not only good people but I appreciate all you do to keep our heritage alive. Kudos to you two. Also, I appreciate all the new guys who contribute to the website. Keep growing and keep up good work.
Question is…what’s the plan for the 10 year anniversary?!?
Is that an S9 football on that cake?! LoL
