The Croatian Olympic Committee and PESG Sports School in Zagreb Continue Cooperation on Dual Careers for Athletes

A week before the expiration of the first four-year cooperation agreement between the Croatian Olympic Committee and PESG (signed on September 8, 2020), an act to extend the partnership was signed at the Sheraton Hotel in Zagreb.

Ivan Vugrinović, the head of education at PESG, presented the institution, explaining how their educational programs (including sports and economics high schools) provide secondary education tailored to the needs of young athletes aged 14 to 18. He proudly highlighted that the institution produces not only exceptionally successful athletes but also successful students.

During the contract signing, Snježana Pejčić, the head of the Croatian Olympic Committee’s Athlete Career Center, assisted, and the new four-year cooperation agreement was signed by the Croatian Olympic Committee President Zlatko Mateša and PESG Director Sanda Gale, who is also a member of the HOO’s Commission for Dual Careers in Sports.
