Two victories for BiH hockey players at the beginning of the World Championship


The Federal Ministry of Culture and Sports sends sincere congratulations to the hockey team of Bosnia and Herzegovina on the great opening of the Division III World Championship in South Africa.

The victories achieved against the national teams of Turkmenistan and Mexico, both with a score of 4:3, represent an exceptional success and confirmation of the quality, fighting spirit and unity of our national team members, who represent Bosnia and Herzegovina with dignity on the international stage.

The fact that our hockey players showed strength of character, calmness and a winning mentality in the key moments of the matches in both matches is especially pleasing, which testifies to their readiness and high competitive spirit.

The Federal Ministry of Culture and Sports expresses its full support for the Bosnia and Herzegovina national team in the continuation of the competition, with wishes for new victories against the selections of Thailand, Turkey and the host South Africa.

With the belief that our “Dragons” will continue to achieve success, we wish them good luck and success in the upcoming matches.
