Organizator i slavljenik nam je priredio izuzetno lijep program, sto sportski kao i socijalni. Bila je to izuzetna prilika da se upoznamo i druzimo sa svim ostalim pozvanim ucesnicima iz 33 drzave clanice IC iz cijeloga svijeta.

Specijalan ugodjaj je bio igrati na travnatim terenima All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club (AELTC ) na Wimbledonu, na istim onim terenima na kojima se svake godine odrzava Wimbledon Championship. Za lijepu i top kvalitetnu profesionalnu opremu i dresove u kojima smo igrali nase matcheve pobrinuo se je HEAD Croatia. Koristimo ovu priliku da se zahvalimo Andreju Salzeru na njegovom trudu i zalaganju i zelji da nam pomogne. Dobili smo komplimente da smo izmedju 33 IC clanice najbolje obucena ekipa na turniru.


At the invitation of the British IC Tennis, the Croatian IC team was a guest at the celebration of the hundredth birthday of IC GB from August 5th to 10th, 2024.

The organizer and celebrant prepared an extremely nice program for us, both sporting and social. It was an exceptional opportunity to meet and socialize with all the other invited participants from 33 IC member states from all over the world.

It was a special feeling to play on the grass courts of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club (AELTC) at Wimbledon, on the same courts where the Wimbledon Championship is held every year. HEAD Croatia took care of beautiful and top quality professional equipment and jerseys in which we played our matches. We use this opportunity to thank Andrej Salzer for his effort and commitment and desire to help us. We received compliments that among the 33 IC members, we were the best-dressed team at the tournament.
