In the next seven months, the Municipality of Mojkovac will provide financial support for students joining the ‘Free Volleyball School’ project, as well as compensation to the teachers at the local school ‘Aleksa Dilas Beco’.

Pajkovic expressed his satisfaction that the Municipality of Mojkovac has recognised the importance of this project.

“It is a project that we started last year and the idea is that in all municipalities in the north of Montenegro, boys gather around Volleyball, and they do so for free. This way the Volleyball Federation of Montenegro will increase the number of male children interested in Volleyball and playing the game. Moreover, the goal is for all Volleyball schools to grow into clubs, so there are multiple benefits for the local government as well."

He pointed out that the ‘Free Volleyball School’ will revive the sport in Mojkovac, a municipality that once had their own Volleyball club.

Delic said that the Municipality of Mojkovac would try to support the Volleyball Federation of Montenegro in this project, expecting that the successful cooperation will continue in the future.

“This is just one of the goals of the project in which we want to encourage children in Mojkovac to play sports more intensively. I am convinced that there will be great interest in this project. I also hope that the Volleyball school will help produce and grow new talents that will represent Mojkovac not only in Montenegro, but internationally as well."
