Dinamo’s miracle: they started from the fifth league and already became the best club of Croatia for his 10th birthday!
Arrived in a few weeks or not a championship trophy on Maksimir, Dynamo The sports family has already won. Near the Blue Football House, on Pescenica, history was written last week. And wrote her volleyball players Dinamoin the 2025th year of the best club in Croatia.
When Zagreb Youth The last time was not the Croatian champion, 2017, Dinamo was in the rank that many probably do not even know that there is a volleyball in Croatia. Two years earlier, the club started from scratch, in the fifth league. But one man had a vision …
Nino Matjačića big fan of Dinamo, a former national team player, knocking on Maksimir door and seeking Dinamo’s permission to use the coat of arms, believed that everything might pay off once. In ten years, since OK Dinamo existed, the club has reached the Croatian Championship title since the five -league class. And just a few days after the tenth anniversary. Unique sports story.
Dynamo was originally founded by students in 2006, but the club no longer acted, so Matjačić and the brothers Blažić were negotiating to start the women’s team under the same name. For the club, only students who came to Zagreb played in the beginning, and climbing the stairs at the stairs, in the first first -team season Dinamo was already the fourth club in Croatia.
Ambitions grew up, especially when he arrived at the Sand in 2021 Igor Šimunčića former menu, a coach who knows what it’s like to win trophies, at the same time creating players, who are not missing at Dinamo school. In 2023, eight years since the club’s founding, Simuncic and Dinamo have already been in the fight for the trophy. They lost the finals of the Cup to Mladost, lost in the process of growing up three more finals from the same opponent, and finally welcomed their moment in the fifth finals and overthrew Mladost from the Croatian Vrh, Mladost, which played the Champions League this season.
– This is the fruit of a four -year work in which it was known every day what tomorrow was going to do. It was not easy to lose the finals, but for the big things you need to know how to wait, it should be in line – said the always realistic Šimunčić.
In addition to the opponents, they struggled with the things in Dinamo that made the man a moment to ask why he was trying to do everything at all. Last season, while their hall on Pescenica was renewed and pierced all possible deadlines, they traveled Zagreb along and across, from Trnski, Sutinski sources, a volleyball home. The club office practically did not exist, they carried the equipment from the hall to the hall, made meetings in several square meters.
Although she has the most massive school in Croatia, the club from Pescenica is not even a real professional club, Lucia Babic, the best player of the club, who has almost raised her hands from volleyball, works in the pharmaceutical industry, Masa Mlinar and Carl Stošić are still high school, Jelena Nincević worked as a trainer, until recently there were also Iva. Valentina Vrbanc, which is a defectologist by profession …
Dynamo is financially or infrastructure cannot be compared with youth, but when you have no other, proper management and vision can be made a miracle. Dynamo Limite did not break through, he did not skip the stairs or in European development, and today he enjoys the final prize. From the debut performance in the Challenge Cup two seasons ago, so the CEV Cup last, now the Champions League is coming, in which Dynamoks have provided minimal qualifications. And it anoints them if happiness in the draw, such as youth this season … The « lionesses » have already proven that everything is possible in sports.
