Press conference on the occasion of Nedžad Husić's silver medal

The Olympic Committee of Bosnia and Herzegovina held a press conference on the occasion of the silver medal-winning of our best taekwondo athlete Nedžad Husić, at the recently concluded 3rd European Games held in Poland.

On the way to the medal, Nedžad dominated the fights against the representatives of Bulgaria (2:0), Belgium (2:0), and Croatia (2:0), while he was stopped by the representatives of Georgia in an extremely tense final fight.

With a phenomenal performance and winning the silver medal, the young Olympian Husić once again showed world-class!

Nedžad Husić is a scholarship holder of the non-budgetary Olympic Committee of Bosnia and Herzegovina and a Program+ beneficiary on the qualification path to the Paris 2024 Olympic Games!

We are sure that this is a great introduction on the way to the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, and we wish our Olympian and the entire team good luck in the qualification period!

At its 25th regular session, the Executive Committee of the Olympic Committee of BIH decided to reward the achieved result with 15,000.00 BAM, that is, Nedžad with 10,000.00 BAM and coach Haris Husić with 5,000.00 BAM.

The Olympic Committee of Bosnia and Herzegovina sends sincere congratulations to Nedžad Husić, the Taekwondo Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, coach Haris Husić and Prof. Dr. Safet Kapi, who joined the professional team of our Olympian.
