We collected 2024 olives and made olive oil that will end up in bottles for the 30th Smrikva Bowl 2025 Ambassadors - Istrian Smrikve olive oil - one of the best in the World. Smrikva "seeds of the Legends" are making it more and more special

We had 7 collection days in Smrikve this year which started on 11and 12th of October, continued on 26th, 27th, 29th… 3rd of November and we finished on 10th of November… it was again special collection with a lot people with passion who contributed to make this annual harvest great again…

… over the 7 collection days over 30 family members and friends helped us and we had all type of weather beautiful and sunny olive collection day… as well as cloudy and nearby rainy conditions…

and this is the story of the 2025 Smrikva Bowl olive oil production :)…

In Smrikve is considered 2025 production because the next year every new Smrikva Bowl Ambassador will receive as per tradition a memory bottle of the olive oil we made this year during the Ambassador’s nomination ceremony.

Collecting olives is always wonderful family and friends time…

… and the team we have is always a great team… and this year we had a great team too…

we started our collection in Valbandon this year… and the second day we harvest the olives in Fazana… we continued the next day at the LOUNGE… and the fourth day our harvest was focused where the Istria from Smrikve monument is located… on fifth day we harvest our home courtyard and part of the vineyard younger olive groves… and we finished all the olives in the valley during the sixth day…

most of the days we were able to have between 5 and 6 people using “tresač” – electric harvests stick…

and each day at around 11:00 we had our brunch time (“marenda”)

and after every collection day there is the important cleaning leaves moment…

Back in 2020 we had our record year in terms of quantity of the olives collected… it was over 5000 kg… and this year we overcome by far our record in our history in terms of quantity of olives collecting over 7800 kg…

… this year it was not an easy year… and a lot of work was required to allow the fruits to resist from blossoming period till harvest… over 140 trees reached important dimensions… and there are still young trees developing… in addition we did a bigger cutting maintenance… and most of all we had a lot of rain during September which made our olives a bit heavier…

Our Legendary olive trees hold names of over 2000 players coming from 111 countries and all the continents are for another great tennis year more special…

In Smrikve we produce Istrian olive oil that has over 2000 years old tradition in olive oil making and was considered among the best one in the Roman Empire and today is still considered among the best one in the World.

During the Smrikva Bowl we use to give to every Smrikva Bowl Ambasador a bottle of oil as a memory to their Smrikva Bowl.

We are already able to produce special and limited collections of the Smrikva Bowl olive oil from the Smrikva Bowl centuries old olive trees planted by some tennis Champions of today… and in the following I am pleased to share the story of the Heritage Collection bottles…

… so far 44 players reached TOP 100 ATP/WTA… 93 reached TOP 200 ATP/WTA… holding 115 professional ATP/WTA titles (5 Grand Slam title)… 37 children holds a total of 51 Grand Slam titles and over 355+ players study or completed their studies in the US thanks to their tennis skills.

The tradition of the olive oil production started to develop in Istria during the time of the Emperor Augustus. Thanks to the olive oil Pula was for few centuries one of the richest towns in the Roman Empire and this is one of the main reasons why Pula got its magnificent Arena.

It is important to say that at the time olive oil was not used only as the salad dressing as we use it today but it was used also for lighting thus it was important as today are important the sources of energy we use. It was the gold of its period. This explain the status and importance Pula had during the Roman Empire time.

Romans had deep knowledge of olive oil making and we do know that they had five different olive oils quality ranking:

1. Oleum ex albis ulivis: first quality olive oil made by green and white olives
(THIS IS WHAT WE DO FROM THE SMRIKVA BOWL OLIVES)
2. Viride: olive oil made by the olives that started to become black
3. Maturum: olive oil made by mature olives
4. Caducum: olive oil made by olives collected from the ground
5. Cibarium: olive oil made by rotten olives

In 2005, for the 10th Smrikva Bowl anniversary, we started the tradition of planting an old Olive tree. The Olive tree selected was older than the oldest man living on the earth today.

On Brioni island there is an olive tree from the beginning of the 4th century that is one of the oldest olive trees in Europe… and many Smrikva Bowl kids visit it every year…

Marcus Valerius Martialis, native from Cordoba, who lived in the 1st century AD, during the Roman Empire times, celebrated Istrian olive oil with the following verses: “Uncto Corduba Laetior Venafro Histra Nec Minus Absolute Testa”. The translation in English would be: “Cordoba, you being more fertile than the olive oil region of Venafro and so perfect as the oil (amphora) from Istria”.

The story of:

Smrikva Bowl Heritage Olive Oil – “seeds of the Legends” Limited edition

… it is the story of one of the most prestige and rare olive oil in the World with very unique story… and the symbolic donation value as of today is set at 44 units for 200 ml collection bottle… 44 is determined as the total number of Grand Slam titles conquered by the children who planted the trees and thanks to our talented seeds it is updated almost after every Grand Slam of the season…

Smrikve, 30th of June 2005 – 28th of April 2019 – 2024

This is the story of one of the most unique olive oils in the world…

On 30th of June in 2005, for the 10th Smrikva Bowl anniversary, we started a tradition of planting an Olive tree during our Smrikva Bowl Ambassador’s nomination ceremony…

and that year we started to donate to each player’s family a limited collection bottle 375 ml of our Malmsey wine with hope to be recalled one day when some of the SB seeds from that generation win a Grand Slam event and make that bottle very prestige with their own results…

In 2006 small olive oil bottles became part of the Smrikva Bowl Ambassador’s nomination ceremony and we started to donate to each Smrikva Bowl kid this special bottle with indication of their generation year…

Both our wine & olive oil gift bottles are usually limited between 90 and 150 pieces… and it is thanks to our “seeds of the Legends” that our olive oil and wine are getting more and more special day after day… and are currently present in 111 country and six continents thanks to our Smrikva Bowl seeds…

The Olive tree selected are traditionally older then our players. The age of the tree is a symbol of intergenerational responsibility.

Every person is born without knowing anything about life on this earth and it is the responsibility of every generation to understand and to learn to preserve all that each of us is born with.

In March 2019 we bottled for the first time the super special limited olive oil bottles collection with aim to make it a tradition.

At the time there were 14 generations (over 1440 players) who had their olive trees when the story of limited collections started.

As you are starting to understand… children who planted our olive trees are the one who are making with their life stories our collection bottles so special.

As of March 2019, there were over 1930 players from 87 countries and 6 continents who participated Smrikva Bowl and on the first 14 collection bottles of 200 ml representing 14 generations was written the following:

Smrikva Bowl was founded in 1996 and over 1930 players from 87 countries and 6 continents participated so far. In 2005 Smrikva Bowl players started to plant olive trees and till 2019 there were 14 generations (over 1440 players) having their dedicated olive tree in Smrikve.

As of 18/03/2019, their track record* is:
• 30 (23) junior Grand Slam titles conquered by 23 (17) players
• 30 (13) professional ATP/WTA titles
• 45 (31) players reached TOP 200 ATP/WTA ranking & 21 (15) players reached TOP 100 ATP/WTA ranking
• 150+ (100+) players received scholarships to study in the US

Note – In brackets: 14 olive trees generations track record

… 500 ml of the heritage symbolic value was at the time 57,5…

The collection bottle symbolic donation value is linked to the number of Grand Slam conquered by Smrikva Bowl players at the time when the bottles are bottled… and on the first symbolic collection bottle donation value was 23… equal to 23 Grand Slam titles conquered by the time by the children who planted our trees… and I knew that year after year this number will increase and the bottles will help us to measure the growth of our living human SB tree around the globe…

All the Collection bottles are numbered and tracked… and the 1st limited edition bottles homes are the following:

21st of September - Smrikva Bowl Ambassador Day - 30th annual Smrikva Bowl 2025 "seeds of the Legends" research begins

Dear Smrikva Bowl and Smrikve friends!

It is 21st of September 2024, Smrikva Bowl Ambassador’s Day (“SBA” Day), and time to start to build another “seeds of the Legends” edition and open the 30th annual candidacy process…

Smrikva Bowl Ambassador’s Day is the day when we celebrate the opening of the new selection process for the 30th edition and talents born in 2015… that is scheduled for the end of June 2025.

Our over 2500 SB seeds spread in 111 country continue to write “seeds of the Legends”story… and year after year this human Smrikva living tree continue to be an inspiration and hope for the kids nurturing particular passion for the game of tennis…

This year was again special. In Paris 5 Olympic medals were collected by SB seeds. Carlos Alcaraz won Roland Garros and Wimbledon. Kylan Bigun junior Roland Garros and Tereza Valentova both singles and doubles junior Roland Garros title…

You can plant a seed… you can plant a dream… you need patience and you have to believe…

Thanks to 2500 SB seeds for writing the most different and inspiring stories for the children of tomorrow! Establishing some new records that may inspire others to overcome… after 26 years of planting seeds around the globe starting with 12th of September 2022 the Smrikva Bowl had the first #1 ATP ranked player…

There must be some true in the saying that: “The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams…”

… 1500+ signed books arriving from 86 countries continue to be part of the Smrikva Bowl Heritage Library…

… over 2000 names were given by 20 SB generations to the old Smrikva Bowl olive trees… and for the fourth time we bottled already very special Smrikva Bowl Heritage Olive Oil…

… 51 Grand Slam titles (including junior titles) are conquered by 37 former Smrikva Bowl players…
… 112 professional ATP/WTA titles (5 Grand Slam titles)…
… 7 Olympic medals…
… 90 players reached TOP 200 ATP/WTA…
… 44 players reached TOP 100 ATP/WTA… and there are always Smrikva Bowl names among the winners of the most prestige under 12, 14, 16, 18 tournaments around the World…

There are many players who already graduated from Universities and I am pleased to track how many Smrikva Bowl children had the opportunity to get scholarship in the United States thanks to their academic and tennis skills and for the moment over 337+ children were able to do it…

… I do like to list the numbers but who lived Smrikva Bowl knows that our story is always more than numbers… more than tennis… and I am grateful to the Smrikva Bowl seeds that in different ways keep inspiring us to continue to put our efforts in gathering talents in our family garden…

There are many ways to show intergenerational solidarity… and I would like to thanks players and families who were part of Smrikva Bowl and keep answering my calls to send signed gifts for each Smrikva Bowl participant of our already SB tradition named “Lucky Draw”…

This special moment is an opportunity for me to share the past players stories with children who are dreaming to follow their footprints… every present child at that moment of intergenerational celebration ceremony bring home a memory gift and I am sure they also discover a new friend to cheer for…

I was pleased to notice thanks to Facebook also that some Smrikva Bowl seeds started to form families and they keep loving the game…

I am also pleased to share that the 9th Smrikva Bowl Tennis Talents Family Week (SBTTFW) 2025 will be held again next spring. The Family Week was born with vision to share with families some precious hints that may be of help to them in their journey. It is a long term development path and is a great holiday experience for players and families that can be lived at this young age.

There is also a new idea that developed in my mind over the last years… and I believe it is an important in order to allow SB seeds to make their own luck in the long run and I wish to share again the idea being already several seeds ready for this. This will be another family reunion opportunity in Smrikve…

Back in summer 1998, about 26 years ago, I was attending Citicorp Associate Development program in New York… this was an opportunity for me to visit the US OPEN

I do remember I had only a vision about the event I was creating… it was still just a dream about creating an inspiring event… and among my dreams I was thinking that there might come the day when there will be 25 past Smrikva Bowl players among top 100 ATP/WTA…

I also remember the big Wilson tennis ball I bought in New York and made it a tradition for the Smrikva Bowl winners to sign it… wishing them to lift one day the US OPEN trophy… this wish become a true story when Dominic Thiem, who signed the famous ball back in 2003, lifted the real US Open trophy in 2020…

At the moment I am writing this letter there are 44 Smrikva Bowl players who actually reached top 100 ATP/WTA ranking… and two years ago Carlos Alcaraz lifted US Open trophy being 19 years and four months old. Carlitos become the youngest #1 ATP ranked player in the history of tennis. Some of my dreams are turning real :)…

There are 90 Smrikva Bowl players who made it into the top 200 ATP/WTA and they made in total over 235M USD in prize money. Total prize money keep increasing by an important double digits rate on yearly basis… and these are big numbers… more than big numbers these are a lot of opportunities that Smrikva Bowl seeds may spread in years to come…

There is also this relevant idea in my mind that I wish to start sharing with Smrikva Bowl seeds…

I remember that Citicorp Associate Development program I was attending was considered at the time one of the best programs in finance on the Wall Street… I was part of an amazing class and we had amazing mentors… the one who impressed me the most at the time was Barry… he had a unique way to share his knowledge…

Those things I learned from Barry helped me understand the real financial situation of the Fiat Group back in 2001… and that knowledge actually helped this company survive one of its deepest financial crisis in its century long history…

But Barry’s words, that I vividly recall, is the story he shared with us one afternoon, at Citicorp training center building, that he is not teaching finance only to financially educated individuals like we were at the time, but he is also sharing his knowledge with successful professional athletes.

At first I did not understand why…

Why should you teach finance to someone who created so much wealth throughout their sport career that could last for centuries?

… and he explained it with very simple words… he said that many successful professionals were becoming social problems in the US… I was still not getting his point… than he told us that the majority of the professional athletes in the US were broken five years after completing their successful careers. We are talking in certain sports of about 3 out of 4 famous and successful players who spent all their wealth earned during their careers just five years after completing to play at professional level…

I learned about this challenge 26 years ago and still today this issue persist… no matter how much monetary resources you earn if you lack basic knowledge in how to manage the wealth you earned it is highly probable that you may end up among the 75%+ group of financially broken stars…

I always believed that Smrikva Bowl kids will build their own luck… and there are so many doing great… and they are doing great in most different fields… thanks to their tennis skills over 337+ received the scholarship to study in the US… and at the moment of this letter there are 32 Smrikva Bowl players made over 1M USD of prize money so far… and there more than 5 Smrikva Bowl players that will cross this financial threshold in less than a year time…

I wish to share this opportunity with the past Smrikva Bowl players and share part of my knowledge in order to help the families get some basics about the elements mentioned above… at what to pay attention…

I envisage this experience as holiday opportunity to learn something in an emotionally positive and friendly environment therefore store it into the long term memory… the SB way… visiting Smrikve with the family was always a battery recharging opportunity and always an opportunity to create good memories…

In 1996 the Smrikva Bowl story started… in 2007 the possibility to return to Smrikve for holidays in order to fine tune some tennis and human skills at „La Bottega“ started… in 2015 we started with friend Luca another family holidays opportunity known as Smrikva Bowl Tennis Talents Family Week experience. Family Week is envisaged to share with families some important long term elements that can help them to increase the awareness on what to pay attention to in building their family path towards high level tennis… and I believe this last new opportunity created for the Smrikva Bowl families will further grow our „seeds of the Legends“ story…

I am pleased to share like every year few stories that are important to me and are part of the Smrikva Bowl foundation code…

For those who are not familiar with I am pleased to recall that 21st of September is the International Day of Peace, also known as the World Peace Day… and years ago this date was selected randomly to be the Smrikva Bowl Ambassadors Day (“SBA”)…

The SBA Day is celebrated on the same day as World Peace Day… and to me civil society and peace are pillars for any talent development possibility… we are all witnessing over the last years how easy the difficulties and challenges put in front of people can change very fast the life we are used to…

In our lives, like in a tennis match, there will be always something that will go wrong… and the same as in tennis… it is not what goes wrong that matters but our reaction to it…

If we are able to recognize potential turning points they might become a mere blips but if we fail to do it our lives might significantly change… and if things are not easy we all need to arm our selves with patience because the momentum never change quickly when is not with you…

Years ago for all the Smrikva Bowl candidates was introduced the obligation to observe the Smrikva Bowl Fair Play and Sportsmanship Code of Conduct and I am pleased to share that more you train more become natural to lead by example… only after many mistakes we have the chance to become better by learning from them… always embracing the challenge… especially when we are forced out of our comfort zone…

I do believe in a beauty of learning and inexperience is a very powerful asset. My advice during orientation day to the Smrikva Bowl children was always to use their skills and tennis racket passport to travel, experience… see the world… and I strongly believe that each of them will become very wealthy person not because of the prize money they might collect but because of the experience they will gain. The relationship wealth they will create with their living will be the most precious wealth for their well being that nobody will be able to take them away.

Two decades ago we started to plant an old Olive tree during Smrikva Bowl Ambassadors Nomination Ceremony. The Olive tree selected was older than the oldest man living on the earth… and during the ceremony, every Ambassador put a piece of land close to the root and donate the name to the tree…

After 20 generations donating their names and planting our Legendary trees next year we will be ready to bottle our 5th very special and unique Heritage Smrikva Bowl Olive Oil limited collection… the olive oil made from the trees planted by “seeds of the Legends”… 2000 stories olive oil…

Olive tree is a symbol of peace in different Mediterranean cultures… and the age of our trees is another important symbol… the symbol of intergenerational responsibility.

Cartoons always helped me to share thoughts with kids… and The Lion King is nice one to share our Olive Tree story via Circle of Life story…

We are all born without knowing much about life on this earth…

… and you might recall when Mufasa was explaining to Simba that is not easy to be a King… he told him that a good King should know that everything around us lives in a delicate equilibrium and that with intelligence we should try to understand it and respect it.

I wish to share with Smrikva Bowl seeds that is not easy to be a great tennis player… the inspiration for kids and generations to come… to lead by example… it is much more easy to explode from time to time… to get angry and frustrated… and much more difficult to keep your mind still and make the kids desire to be like you one day…

Mufasa was trying to teach Simba the importance of observing the nature and learning from it… of being curious… and he was teaching him to respect the nature and get the understanding of the importance of all different creatures in the Circle of Life…

A Nobal Prize for Peace, guest of the group I was member years ago, once observed: “The future is always in a minority. Yet the history of the future is more important than the history of the past. It is for the old to remember the past. It is for the young to build the world of tomorrow.

Do it! You can build a world without wars. You can build a new humanity.”

A signed tennis ball by this Nobel Prize for Peace with the above message is a precious memory held in Smrikve that I love to share with Smrikva kids…

I developed an idea that peace is always an unstable equilibrium and with intelligence we should try to understand it and respect it. Knowledge, human curiosity and will to learn are important… and all together are pillars for the civilization path.

When the Nobel Prize told to the group I belonged: “Do it!” he reminded me Yoda and his teaching to the young Skywalker: “Do. Or do not!…”

Books are human memory that can help us understand what we see combined with our cumulative personal experience and this is one of the reasons why I started the Smrikva Bowl Heritage Library story. Given the fragility of the circle of life it is easy to lose personal and general cumulative knowledge in just a generation or two.

We have gotten used to rapid technological progress, but social progress is more complex. Humans learn throughout lifetime and mostly from personal experiences.

Today people live an average of about 80 years… and what we call civilization is mostly made up of human knowledge we have accumulated, which our institutions pass onto future generations… and at the moment we are those who represent the current civilization.

I dedicated over 6000 working hours to create “Istria from Smrikve” cultural and heritage book about Istria and this book is since 2009 my book gift to each selected SB seed in exchange for the book they bring and donate to SB library… by creating that book I learned that 50% of the places I was describing in the book have 4000 years of continues lives… and I believe I learned an important message that I am pleased to share…

In whichever environment you are born… be prepared that this environment will change through your lifetime… the facts and opinions will continue to mix as you grow but when your mind is still and calm you will be able to see clearly what is good for the society you live in and what is not that good… it is similar to the choice the player make in taking the path of tennis or the path of gamesmenship… my dream for the SB seeds is to take the path which is the more difficult one… and we call it the game of tennis…

World Peace Day although celebrated on the same day as SBA day is the day to start thinking of the new research of the Smrikva talents… and with this e-mail, as per tradition, some basic ideas about the selection process for the 30th annual will be shared.

30th Smrikva Bowl, will be held in Pula-Istria, Croatia, from (21st) 23rd till 28th of June 2025. Smrikva Bowl gathers young tennis talents from all over the World and next year edition will be dedicated to players born in 2015.

When I think of Smrikva Bowl Heritage and Legacy I always imagine it physically as a theater where we work hard for a year to set the stage… and every year we gather talented kids, arriving from different cultures, having different dreams…

We set the stage and later on they are in charge with their dedication to write the most different & inspiring stories…

Smrikve is like the place where the seeds of the legends are planted year after year… and Smrikva children stories and families after their departure from Smrikve become like a living fairy tale tree that keeps growing and developing in most different directions year after year…

The intangible part of our theater is „more than tennis“… whatever that means… and I always wished that it could mean something little bit different for each person that happened to get in touch with Smrikva Bowl story…

Smrikva Bowl is still very young event and is too early to observe the Smrikva Bowl Legacy but I always believed that more then one children who left footprints on our courts will write inspiring stories in most different professional fields.. and I am always happy when I get to know a new SB name achieving the possibility to get their higher education at US Universities thanks to their tennis racket…

I am always happy to see when Smrikva Bowl seeds win something, when they graduate, when they fall in love and start to form families, get their children… so happy when they overcome injuries… and there are so many that keep leading by example…

Year after year seems more likely that Grand Slam Tournaments will be conquered by Smrikva seeds… they already won 51 Grand Slam Titles in singles and doubles… and my dream for the “seeds of the Legends” was always beyond Grand Slam dream… the fifth grand slam story wish…

I know that according to the statistics only few Smrikva Bowl kids will become top professional tennis players, but I want to believe that they will benefit from their tennis and sport experience and find their way in other fields too… because humans need inspiration… we need inspiration not only in sport but in most different fields…

There are so many challenges today in the world and in daily life for each of us… and no matter how many challenges you face there will be always many new one in the future… and we need divergent thinking to find solutions to challenges that today appear more complicated than what they really are… and children are the little genius that could show us the path… being adults those who borrow the future from the children…

I stopped asking myself long time ago of how many kids playing Smrikva Bowl are playing tennis because their parents would like them to become professional tennis players and how much of them play it because they like the game. What I do know is that sport can help kids in their growth and I also know that people that do excel in any field need very long time to reach and master the excellence.

This is important to underline for any field… whoever around you is very good in doing something for the community it is the one who dedicated a lot of his time with passion to master the profession that the community can benefit from… every time you recognize such a person around you you should treasure it… at the same time if a person with no passion and no skills get in charge of something that is important for the community be prepared that the whole community will suffer the consequences which can be very painful in the long run…

Rarely but still can happen that some people come to Smrikva thinking that Smrikva Bowl is a very “important” competition… without understanding that the result is not the hidden key of the Smrikva Bowl event… and I always need Smrikva Bowl Ambassadors’ help to explain before deciding to support a new candidate and their family that Smrikva Bowl is something more than a competition…

On our website you can already find PDF file 30th Smrikva Bowl 2025 edition presentation with application form and other relevant information:

Smrikva Bowl “more than tennis” idea… will be left to the interpretation of each Ambassador and Smrikva Bowl friend… their feelings will guide them because they are the one who are helping us to write the Smrikva story…

Thanks to the Smrikva Bowl families our special Olive Oil and Wine are spread in 111 country… Our quantities are always super limited… the same as limited is the number of players we can invite every year… but I do believe the same I believed for the Smrikva Bowl players that one day the olive oil made from the “seeds of the Legends” trees will be the most unique in the whole World… and for me, even today, this is already the reality…

Over the years Istria kept recording sustainable growth in numbers of travelers visiting us… and I am grateful to all those who visited us in Smrikve… “Istria from Smrikve” is a cultural e-book gift to all Smrikve friends… Smrikva Bowl Ambassadors are helping us in scouting talents but also in spreading the word about Istria as cultural destination for travelers worth visiting and preserving… and I hope that one day this book will be recognized thanks to the Smrikva Bowl children…

The number of the invited players in 2025 will be limited to 48 players (24 girls and 24 boys)… we are getting smaller and your help will be precious.

If you know a good tennis player born in 2015 that deserves to become Smrikva Bowl seed or you wish to present your or support a candidacy for the SBTTFW 2025 family gatherings or for the new holidays initiative SBM+FHW 2025 please feel free to let me know …

… for the end of this long presentation… being today World Peace Day… my wish to Smrikva players is to continue to inspire… and may some of them make true Nelson Mandela’s words when he observed the power of Sport saying: “Sport has the power to change the world, the power to inspire and the power to unite people in a way little else can…”

Thank you for your time, for visiting us and for sharing with friends the Smrikve story.

Cari amici dello Smrikva Bowl e di Smrikve!

È il 21 settembre 2024, la giornata degli Ambasciatori dello Smrikva Bowl, ed è arrivato di nuovo il momento per iniziare a costruire una nuova edizione dei “semi delle Legende” ed iniziare il processo della selezione per i candidati della 30.esima edizione dello Smrikva…

La giornata degli Ambasciatori dello Smrikve e’ il giorno in cui si festeggia l’apertura del nuovo processo di selezione e quest’anno la 30-esima edizione viene dedicata ai talenti nati nel 2015 ed è prevista per la fine di giugno 2025.

Oltre 2500 giocatori della famiglia Smrikva sparsi in 111 paesi continuano a scrivere la storia dei “semi delle Leggende” … e di anno in anno questo albero vivente continua ad essere l’ispirazione ed una speranza per i bambini che nutrono una passione particolare per il gioco del tennis…

Anche quest’anno era speciale di nuovo. A Parigi sono state collezionate 5 medaglie olimpiche dai ragazzi dello Smrikva. Carlos Alcaraz ha vinto sia Roland Garros sia Wimbledon. Kylan Bigun ha vinto junior Roland Garros mentre Tereza Valentova ha vinto sia il titolo nel singolare sia nel doppio…

Puoi piantare un seme… puoi piantare un sogno… ma hai bisogno di pazienza e ci devi credere…

Ringrazio gli attuali 2500 semi dello SB che scrivono di continuo con il proprio vivere le storie più diverse e stimolanti… Stabilire i nuovi record ispireranno gli altri ragazzi nel tentare di superarli… dopo 26 anni trascorsi a piantare semi in giro per il mondo a partire dal 12 settembre 2022, lo Smrikva Bowl ha avuto per la prima volta un giocatore ATP classificato come n. 1 del mondo…

Ci deve essere del vero nel detto che: “Il futuro appartiene a coloro che credono nella bellezza dei loro sogni…”

… oltre 1500 libri firmati provenienti da 86 paesi rimangono custoditi nella libreria dello Smrikva Bowl…

… oltre 2000 nomi sono stati regalati da 20 generazioni dello Smrikva agli alberi d’ulivo dello Smrikva… creando qualcosa di speciale ed ancora difficile da scorgere…

… 51 titoli Grande Slam (inclusi titoli juniores) sono gia’ stati collezionati da 37 ragazzi che giocarono lo Smrikva Bowl…
… 112 titoli professionali ATP/WTA (5 titoli Grande Slam)…
… 7 medaglie olimpiche…
… 90 giocatori hanno raggiunto la classifica TOP 200 ATP/WTA
… 44 giocatori hanno raggiunto il livello TOP 100 ATP/WTA… e ci sono sempre i nomi dei ragazzi Smrikva tra vincitori dei piu’ prestigiosi eventi under 12,14,16,18 nel Mondo…

Sono in molti che si sono gia’ laureati… ed avevo il desiderio di capire quanti bambini dello Smrikva Bowl hanno ottenuto la borsa di studio negli Stati Uniti grazie alle loro capacita’ academiche e quelle tennistiche. Il numero che ho il piacere di condividere e’ che sono oltre 337+ ragazzi…

… ma la storia dello Smrikva Bowl e’ molto di piu’ dei numeri e va oltre il tennis… e sono riconoscente ai ragazzi che nei modi piu’ diversi ci inspirano anno dopo anno di andare oltre la nostra imaginazione… e di continuare a tenere aperto il giradino di casa nostra per riunire ogni anno i nuovi semi delle Legende supportate dalle generazioni del passato…

Ci sono molti modi per dimostrare solidarietà intergenerazionale… e vorrei cogliere l’occasione per ringraziare i ragazzi e le loro famiglie che ancora si ricordano dello Smrikva ed hanno inviato oggetti firmati perche’ potessimo regalargli ad ogni partecipante negli ultimi anni… e per me questo momento, ormai di tradizione, e’ un’occasione per raccontare la loro storia ai ragazzi che stanno sognando di seguire le orme di chi li ha preceduti… ogni ragazzo presente a quel momento di celebrazione intergenerazionale porta con se un oggetto ricordo e scopre un nuovo amico per il quale fare il tifo… e’ la storia del “Lucky Draw”…

Sono stato contento di notare grazie a Facebook che alcuni semi dello Smrikva Bowl hanno iniziato a formare le famiglie proprie e continuano ad amare il gioco del tennis…

Ho il piacere di condividere che il 9. Smrikva Bowl Tennis Talents Family Week (SBTTFW) 2025 si terra’ in primavera. Il Family Week è nato con la visione di condividere con le famiglie e i giocatori una vacanza speciale che possa essere loro di aiuto per lo sviluppo a lungo termine ed una grande esperienza di gioco da vivere a questa giovane età.

C’è anche una nuova idea che da un po di tempo si sviluppa nella mia mente ed e’ importante perche’ i semi dello Smrikva potessero fare la propria fortuna a lungo termino e che desidero iniziare a condividere con la speranza di cominciare a realizzarla essendo già molti bimbi dello Smrikva idonei per questa idea…

Nell’estate del 1998, circa 26 anni fa, ero alumno del Citicorp Associate Development a New York… questa è stata un’opportunità per me di visitare anche gli US OPEN

Ricordo che avevo solo una visione dell’evento che stavo creando… lo Smrikva Bowl… era un sogno di creare un evento che potesse inspirare… e tra i miei sogni pensavo che potesse venire il giorno in cui ci saranno 25 giocatori passati per lo Smrikva Bowl tra i primi 100 ATP/WTA…

Ricordo anche la grande pallina da tennis Wilson US OPEN che comprai a New York e che resi tradizione per i vincitori della Smrikva firmarla… augurando loro di sollevare un giorno il trofeo degli US OPEN… questo desiderio è diventato una storia vera quando Dominic Thiem, che ha firmato il famoso pallone nel 2003, ha alzato il vero trofeo degli US Open nel 2020…

Al momento in cui sto scrivendo questa lettera ci sono 44 giocatori della Smrikva Bowl che hanno effettivamente raggiunto la top 100 della classifica ATP/WTA… e due anni fa anche Carlos Alcaraz ha vinto gli US OPEN diventando il piu’ giovane #1 ATP nella storia del tennis… il che potrebbe dire che alcuni dei miei sogni stanno diventando realtà :)…

Ci sono 90 giocatori della Smrikva Bowl che sono entrati tra i primi 200 ATP/WTA ed hanno totalizzato oltre 235M di dollari in premi. Il montepremi complessivo continua ad aumentare del tasso a doppia cifra su base annua… e questi sono sicuramente i grandi numeri… più che grandi numeri, queste sono grandi opportunità che i semi dello Smrikva Bowl potranno diffondere negli anni a venire…

Ricordo che il programma Citicorp Associate Development a cui stavo partecipando era considerato all’epoca uno dei migliori programmi di finanza a Wall Street… Facevo parte di una classe fantastica e avevamo dei professori molto preparati… quello che mi impressiono’ di piu’ all’epoca era professore Barry… aveva un modo unico di condividere il suo sapere…

Quelle cose che ho imparato da Barry mi hanno aiutato a capire la reale situazione finanziaria del Gruppo Fiat nel 2001… e quel sapere ha effettivamente aiutato questa azienda a sopravvivere una delle sue più profonde crisi finanziarie nella sua storia lunga piu’ di un secolo…

Ma le parole di Barry, che ricordo vividamente, sono la storia che ha condiviso con noi un pomeriggio, nell’edificio del centro di formazione Citicorp, che lui non sta insegnando finanza solo a persone istruite finanziariamente come eravamo noi all’epoca, ma sta anche condividendo le sue conoscenze con atleti professionisti di successo.

All’inizio non capivo perché…

Perché dovresti insegnare la finanza a qualcuno che ha creato così tanto benessere economico durante la sua carriera sportiva che potrebbe durare per secoli?

… e ci ha spiegato che sfortunatamente molti professionisti di successo stavano diventando dei problemi sociali negli Stati Uniti… non avevo ancora capito il suo punto… poi ci ha detto che la maggior parte degli atleti professionisti negli Stati Uniti spende i loro patrimoni entro i cinque anni dal completamento della loro carriera sportiva. Parliamo in alcuni sport di circa 3 giocatori famosi e di successo su 4 che hanno speso tutto in soli cinque anni dal completamento della loro carriera professionistica…

Ho appreso di questo problema 26 anni fa e ancora oggi questo problema persiste… non importa quante risorse guadagni ma se ti mancano le conoscenze di base su come gestire queste risorse è altamente probabile che tu possa finire tra i 75%+ dei casi della bancarotta personale…

Ho sempre creduto che molti dei ragazzi della Smrikva Bowl costruiranno la propria fortuna… e c’e’ ne sono così tanti che stanno andando bene nei campi più diversi… grazie alle loro abilità nel tennis oltre 337+ hanno ricevuto la borsa di studio per studiare negli Stati Uniti… e al momento della stesura di questa lettera ci sono 32 giocatori di Smrikva Bowl che hanno guadagnato oltre 1M di dollari dei monte premi… e ci sono almeno 5 giocatori dello Smrikva che attraverseranno questa soglia in meno di un anno…

Desidero aprire questa opportunità di condividere un parte delle mie conoscenze a modo mio, stabilendo la possibilità per i giocatori dello Smrikva Bowl di tornare a Smrikve con la loro famiglia per le loro vacanze e ottenere alcune nozioni di base sugli elementi sopra menzionati… a che cosa prestare attenzione…

Immagino questa esperienza come una vacanza… e un’opportunità per imparare qualcosa in un ambiente emotivamente positivo, quindi per conservarlo nella memoria a lungo termine… visitare Smrikve con la famiglia è sempre un’opportunità per ricaricare la batteria e sempre un’opportunità per creare qualche bel ricordo…

Nel 1996 è iniziata la storia di Smrikva Bowl… nel 2007 è iniziata la possibilità di tornare a Smrikve per le vacanze per affinare alcune abilità tennistiche ed umane presso “La Bottega”… nel 2015 abbiamo iniziato con l’amico Luca un’altra opportunità di vacanza in famiglia conosciuta come Smrikva Bowl Tennis Talents Family Week. Family Week che è ideato come condivisione con le famiglie di alcuni importanti elementi che possono aiutarle ad aumentare la consapevolezza su cosa prestare attenzione nel costruire il loro percorso familiare verso il tennis di alto livello a lungo termine… e credo questa nuova opportunità per le famiglie di Smrikva Bowl farà crescere ulteriormente la nostra storia di “semi delle leggende”…

Sono lieto di condividere alcune storie come da tradizione ormai e che sono importanti per me e fanno parte della base sulla quale venne fondato lo Smrikva Bowl…

Per chi non sapesse oggi si celebra la giornata internazionale di pace, nota come la giornata mondiale di pace… e diversi anni indietro questa data venne scelta casualmente come la data degli Ambasciatori dello Smrikva Bowl…

La giornata degli Ambasciatori dello Smrikva Bowl, pur essendo celebrata lo stesso giorno come la giornata mondiale della pace, e’ dedicate alla civilta’… Senza la societa’ civile nel mondo moderno non ce garanzia per la pace… e senza la pace diventa ancora piu’ ardua la strada per lo sviluppo dei talenti…

Abbiamo visto negli ultimi anni quanto facilmente le difficoltà e le sfide poste di fronte alle persone possano cambiare la vita alla quale siamo abituati…

Nelle nostre vite, come in una partita di tennis, ci sarà sempre qualcosa che andrà storto… e come nel tennis… non è ciò che va storto che conta, ma la nostra reazione nei confronti degli eventi andati storto a nostro avviso…

Se siamo in grado di riconoscere potenziali punti di svolta questi potrebbero diventare dei semplici segnali d’avvertimento ma se non riusciamo a farlo piano piano tutto potrebbe cambiare in modo significativo… e se le cose diventano non facili non vi e’ che armarsi di molta pazienza perché il momentum non cambia mai rapidamente quando non è con te…

Anni fa venne richiesto ai ragazzi e candidati Smrikva l’impegno di osservare il codice di condotta e di Fair Play Smrikva Bowl e vorrei condividere un piccolo segreto con loro… piu’ ti alleni con costanza e passione e piu’ diventa naturale essere l’esempio per gli altri… dopo tanti piccoli errori in campo come anche fuori campo abbiamo la possibilita’ d’imparare e di migliorare… abbracciando la sfida… soprattutto quando siamo costretti a lasciare la nostra zona di comfort …

Io credo nella bellezza dell’apprendimento e l’inesperienza e’ una risorsa preziosa se l’abbracci. Il mio consiglio durante la giornata di orientamento ai bambini dello Smrikva Bowl è sempre quello di usare le loro abilità e il loro passaporto – “la racchetta da tennis” per viaggiare e vedere il mondo, fare l’esperienza e credo fermamente che ognuno di loro diventerà molto ricco un giorno. Non per i soldi che potrebbero guadagnare, ma per le esperienze che vivranno. La ricchezza che creeranno con il proprio vivere e viaggiare sarà una ricchezza preziosa per il loro benessere interiore che nessuno sarrà in grado di portarli via.

Tanti anni fa abbiamo iniziato la tradizione di piantare il vecchio ulivo durante la cerimonia di nomina degli Ambasciatori dello Smrikva… Il primo ulivo selezionato era piu’ vecchio dell’uomo vivente sulla terra al momento… e durante la cerimonia, ogni Ambasciatori metteva un gruzolo di terra vicino alla radice dell’albero e regalava il proprio nome allo stesso…

Dopo 20 generazioni che hanno donato i loro nomi e piantato i nostri alberi leggendari l’anno prossimo, saremo pronti per imbottigliare la nostra quinta collezione di olio d’oliva Heritage Smrikva Bowl molto speciale ed unica… l’olio d’oliva ottenuto dagli alberi piantati dai “semi delle leggende” … con 2000 storie di olio d’oliva…

L’ulivo e’ il simbolo di pace in varie culture del Mediterraneo… ma la sua eta’ e’ per noi il simbolo della responsabilita’ tra le generazioni.

Molte volte trovo inspirazione per condividere il mio pensiero con i bambini nei cartoni animati… ed Il Re Leone e’ molto bello per la storia dei vecchi ulivi… che riassume in se la storia del cerchio della vita…
Tutti nasciamo senza sapere molto in merito alla vita sulla terra…

… qualcuno potrebbe ricordarsi la scena quando Mufasa spiegava a Simba che non era facile essere il Re… gli spiega che il Re dovrebbe sapere che tutto intorno a noi vive in un delicato equilibrio e che con l’intelligenza dovremmo cercare di capirlo e di rispettarlo.

Desidero condividere con i semi dello Smrikva Bowl che non è facile essere un grande tennista… essere l’ispirazione per i bambini e le generazioni a venire… essere l’esempio… è molto più facile esplodere di tanto in tanto … arrabbiarsi… ed e’ molto più difficile mantenere la mente calma e far sognare i bambini di essere come te un giorno…

Mufasa stava cercando di insegnare a suo figlio Simba l’importanza di osservare la natura … di essere curioso … e gli stava insegnando il rispetto della natura e la comprensione dell’importanza di tutte le creature nel cerchio della vita…

Il premio nobel per la pace, ospitato da un gruppo di giovani di cui facevo parte, ci lascio’ un messaggio che mi piace condividere… lui ci scrisse: “Il futuro e’ sempre in minoranza. Pur essendo la storia del futuro piu’ importante della storia del passato. E’ riservato ai vecchi il ricordo del passato. Ed e’ riservato ai giovani la costruzione del mondo di domani.

Fatelo! Potete costruire un mondo senza le guerre. Potete costruire una nuova umanita’.”

Una pallina da tennis che porta il messaggio di sopra e’ stata firmata dal Premio Nobel per la pace menzionato sopra ed è un prezioso ricordo conservato a Smrikve che amo condividere con i bambini Smrikva…

Ho sviluppato nella mia mente l’idea che la pace e’ sempre in un equilibrio instabile e con l’intelligenza dovremmo cercare di capirlo e rispettarlo… Il sapere, la curiosita’ umana e la volonta di imparare sono importanti e sono tutti elementi sui quali vennero costruite le societa’ civili nella storia dell’umanita’…

Quando il premio Nobel utilizzo’ la frase “Fatelo!” mi ricordo’ la saggezza di Yoda nel crescere il giovane Luke Skywalker spiegandogli che: “Non esiste provare. Fai o non fare” :)

I libri rappresentano un grande patrimonio e ci aiutano a capire quanto percepiamo con l’esperienza cummulata dal vivere quotidiano. Questo e’ uno dei motivi perche’ iniziai’ a costruire la libreria dello Smrikva Bowl. Data la fragilita’ del cerchio della vita e’ molto facile perdere la conoscenza accummulata.

Siamo abituati alla rapidita’ del progresso tecnologico, ma il progresso sociale e’ piu’ complesso. Gli uomini imparano durante tutta la vita e soprattutto dalla propria esperienza…

La gente vive circa 80 anni… e cio’ che chiamiamo la civilta’ e’ fatto dalla conoscenza cummulata ad oggi, che le instituzioni passano alle future generazioni… ed al momento siamo noi coloro che rappresentiamo la civilta’ d’oggi…

Ho dedicato oltre 6000 ore di lavoro per creare il libro sul patrimonio culturale dell’Istria che porta il nome “Istria from Smrikve”… e questo libro è dal 2009 il mio regalo a ciascun seme dello SB selezionato in cambio del libro che porta e dona alla biblioteca SB… lavorando su quel libro ho imparato che il 50% dei luoghi che descrivevo nel libro hanno oltre 4000 anni di vita continua… e mi sembra d’aver colto un messaggio importante che ho il piacere di condividere…

In qualunque ambiente tu sia nato… devi essere consapevole che questo ambiente cambierà nel corso della tua vita… i fatti e le opinioni continueranno a mescolarsi man mano che cresci, ma quando la tua mente è calma sarai in grado di vedere chiaramente ciò che è buono per la società in cui vivi e cosa non e’ buono… è simile alla scelta che fa il giocatore nel prendere la via del tennis o la via del rubare i punti… il mio sogno per i semi dello SB è quello di prendere la via che è quella più difficile… e si chiama il gioco del tennis…

La giornata mondiale della pace, celebrata lo stesso giorno degli Ambasciatori Smrikva, e’ sempre buon giorno per iniziare la raccolta dei talenti della nuova generazione dello Smrikva Bowl… e con la presente lettera, come per tradizione, partira’ la selezione dei giovani talenti per la 30-esima edizione dello Smrikva Bowl.

30th Smrikva Bowl 2025 si terrà a Pola (Croazia-Istria) dal (21) 23 giugno fino al 28 giugno 2025. Smrikva Bowl raccoglie talenti a livello mondiale e la prossima edizione sarra’ dedicata ai giocatori nati nel 2015.

Quando penso al patrimonio ed all’eredita che il nostro torneo possa seminare nei piccoli cuori dei ragazzi me lo imagino sempre fisicamente come un teatro dove ogni anno lavoriamo duramente per preparare il palcoscenico… ogni anno raduniamo bambini, che arrivano da differenti culture, avendo sogni diversi,…

Noi prepariamo il palcoscenico e dopo sono loro che scrivono le storie di vita piu’ diverse…

La parte intangibile del nostro teatro è quel “più del tennis”… qualunque cosa significhi… ho sempre desiderato che potesse significare qualcosa di leggermente diverso per ogni persona che si è messa in contatto con la storia di Smrikva Bowl…

Smrikva Bowl è ancora un evento molto giovane ed è troppo presto poter osservare quale fosse il suo vero significato, ma ho sempre creduto che più di un bambino che ha lasciato le proprie impronte sui nostri campi da tennis scriverà storie stimolanti nei più diversi campi professionali .. e sono sempre felice quando scopro un nuovo nome SB che ha ottenenuto la possibilità di ottenere la propria istruzione superiore presso le università statunitensi grazie alla sua racchetta da tennis …

Anno dopo anno diventa sempre piu’ evidente che piu’ di uno conquisterra’ tornei dello Grande Slam… hanno gia’ totalizzato 51 titoli in singolare e doppio negli eventi Grand Slam… e mio sogno per loro va oltre il sogno dei Grande Slam… la storia che alcuni conoscono come quinto grand slam…

So che secondo le statistiche solo pochi ragazzi dello Smrikva Bowl diventeranno i migliori giocatori di tennis professionisti, ma voglio credere che trarranno beneficio dalla loro esperienza nel tennis e nello sport e troveranno la loro strada anche in altri campi … tutti noi abbiamo bisogno di inspirazione… abbiamo bisogno di inspirazione non solo nello sport ma in campi più diversi …

Ci sono molte sfide oggi ed ogni giorno incontriamo nuove sfide che dobbiamo affrontare… e c’e’ ne saranno sempre in futuro da affrontare … abbiamo bisogno del pensiero divergente per trovare soluzioni a sfide che oggi appaiono più complicate di quello che sono … e bambini sono i piccoli geni che potrebbero indicarci la strada… vale la pena di tenere in mente che sono sempre gli adulti coloro che prendono in prestito il futuro dai bambini …

Ho smesso di chiedermi molto tempo fa quanti bambini dello Smrikva Bowl stanno giocando a tennis perché i loro genitori vorrebbero che diventassero giocatori di tennis professionisti e quanti di loro giocano perché gli piace il gioco. Quello che so è che lo sport può aiutare i bambini nella loro crescita e so anche che le persone che diventano brave in qualsiasi campo hanno bisogno di molto tempo per raggiungere e padroneggiare l’eccellenza.

Questo è importante sottolineare per qualsiasi campo… chi ti circonda ed è molto bravo nel fare qualcosa per la comunità è colui che ha dedicato molto del suo tempo con passione per padroneggiare la professione di cui la comunità può beneficiare… ed ogni volta che riconosci una persona simile intorno a te dovresti farne tesoro… allo stesso tempo se una persona senza passione e senza abilità si fa carico di qualcosa che è importante per la comunità sii pronto che l’intera comunità possa subire le conseguenze che a lungo andare possono essere molto dolorose…

Sempre piu’ raramente ma ancora capita che qualcuno arrivi a Smrikve pensando che Smrikva Bowl sia un „importante“ competizione… senza capire che il mero risultato non e’ la chiave dello Smrikva Bowl… ed ho sempre il constante bisogno degli Ambasciatori Smrikva per aiutarmi a spiegare che lo Smrikva Bowl e’ qualcosa di diverso e non una „importante“ competizione.

Da oggi sul sito dello Smrikva Bowl potete aprire presentazione PDF dell’edizione di quest’anno 30. Smrikva Bowl 2025 con il formulario d’iscrizione ed altre informazioni rilevanti relative alla prossima edizione.

Smrikva Bowl e’ stato sempre qualcosa in “più del tennis”… ma mi piace lasciarlo inspiegato e che siano gli Ambasciatori ed amici ad interpretarlo con le proprie sensazioni perche’ sono loro alla fine quelli che ogni giorno scrivono la storia dello Smrikva Bowl…

Grazie alle famiglie dello Smrikva il nostro olio e vino e’ oggi sparso in 111 paesi del mondo… le nostre quantita’ sono sempre molto limitate… come sono limitati i posti dei ragazzi che possiamo invitare ogni anno… ma credo come credevo nei giocatori di Smrikva Bowl che un giorno l’olio d’oliva prodotto dagli alberi piantati dalle “semi delle leggende” sarà davvero unico al mondo … e per me lo e’ gia’…

Negli anni l’Istria continua a registrare leggera crescita di visitatori viaggiatori e sono grato a tutti quelli che ci hanno visitato ed hanno contribuito a questa crescita… “Istria from Smrikve” e’ un regalo agli amici… e questo regalo agli Ambasciatori dello Smrikva Bowl aggiunge alla loro missione di Ambasciatori, che ci aiutano nella ricerca dei talenti nei loro paesi, il compito di diffondere la voce sull’Istria come destinazione che merita di essere visitata… ed il mio sogno e’ che un giorno l’eredita’ dello “Istria from Smrikve” possa essere riconsciuta anche grazie ai semi dello Smrikva Bowl…

Il numero dei candidati accettati nel 2025 sarra’ limitato ai 48 ragazzi (24 ragazzi e 24 ragazze) ed il vostro aiuto sarra’ come sempre molto apprezzato.

Se conoscete ragazzi di talento del 2015 che meriterebbe di partecipare o volete candidarvi per il settimo raduno familiare SBTTFW 2025 o per la mia nuova iniziativa di SBM+HFW non esitate a farmelo sapere…

… e per chiudere questa lunga presentazione… dato che si celebra nella giornata mondiale della pace auguro ai ragazzi Smrikva di continuare ad inspirare con l’esempio… ed auguro che qualcuno renda reali le parole di Nelson Mandela quando disse: “Lo sport ha la forza di cambiare il mondo, ha la forza di ispirare e la forza di unire la gente come poche altre cose”

Grazie per il tempo dedicato alla lettura, per averci visitato e per la condivisione con gli amici della storia di Smrikve.

Dragi prijatelji i poznanici Smrikva Bowl-a,

21. je rujna 2024. godine, dan Ambasadora Smrikva Bowl-a, i vrijeme za početak izgradnje još jednog izdanja Smrikve, vrijeme za otvaranja 30. godišnjeg procesa kandidiranja…

Dan Ambasadora Smrikve je dan kada se slavi otvaranje nove selekcije Smrikvara, generacije talenata rođenih 2015.godine… za 30.-to okupljanje koje je zakazano za kraj lipnja 2025. godine.

Preko 2500 SB igrača raširenih u 111 zemlji svijeta nastavlja pisati jednu lijepu priču… i iz godine u godinu ovo stablo života nastavlja biti inspiracija za djecu koja gaje osobitu strast prema teniskoj igri…

Ova je godina bila ponovno posebna. U Parizu su djeca Smrikve odnijela svojim kućama i narodima 5 olimpijski odličja. Carlos Alcaraz je osvojio Roland Garros i Wimbledon. Kylan Bigun juniorski Roland Garros a Tereza Velentova i single i parove juniorskog Roland Garrosa.

Možete posaditi sjeme… možete posaditi san… i onda se samo još nauružati strpljenjem i čvrstom vjerom u sebe i svoje snove…

Hvala svim dosadašnjim 2500 sjemenki Smrikve za pisanje najrazličitijih inspirativnih priča za djecu sutrašnjice! Postavljanje novih rekorda će zasigurno inspirirati druge mlade da ih nadmaše… nakon 26 godina sijanja sjemenki Smrikve diljem svijeta počevši od 12. rujna 2022. Smrikva Bowl ima u svom kurikulumu po prvi puta igrača #1 na ATP ljestvici…

Sigurno ima neke istine u izreci da “budućnost pripada onima koji vjeruju u ljepotu svojih snova…”

…preko 1500+ potpisanih knjiga iz 86 zemalja je i dalje pohranjeno u biblioteci koju stvaraju naši mali posjetitelji od 2009.godine i koja čini nasljeđe Smrikva Bowl-a…

…preko 2000 imena ponosno nose posvećene stare masline Smrikva Bowl-a… stvarajući nešto posebno što se još uvijek teško može jasno razaznati…

… 51 Grand Slam titule (uključujući juniorske) su do danas prikupila 37 djeteta Smrikve…
… 12 profesionalnih ATP/WTA titula (5 Grand Slam titule)…
… 7 Olimpijskih medalja…
… 90 igrača su dostigli nivo TOP 200 ATP/WTA…
… 44 igrača su u svojoj karijeri dostigli razinu od TOP 100 igrača svijeta na ATP/WTA ljestvicama… i brojne pobjede su ostvarene tijekom posljednjeg desetljeća na svim najprestižnijim turnirima diljem svijeta u kategorijama do 12,14,16 i 18 godina…

Brojna djeca Smrikve su danas fakultetski obrazovana… i već neko vrijeme mi je želja saznati koliko je djece Smrikve uspjelo dobiti stipendiju u Sjedinjenim Američkim Državama zahvaljujući svojim akademskim i teniskim sposobnostima… i ažurirani broj koji rado djelim je da je preko 337+ djece Smrikve to do danas postiglo…

… priča Smrikve je oduvijek nešto više od brojeva kao što je i nešto više od tenisa… i zahvalan sam igračima Smrikve, njihovim obiteljima, trenerima koji nas na najrazličitije načine inspiriraju da nastavimo graditi Smrikvu preko naših granica mašte u našem obiteljskom dvorištu…

Postoji puno načina da se iskaže međugeneracijska solidarnost… i želim se zahvaliti djeci Smrikve i njihovim obiteljima koji se odazivaju mojim pozivima i šalju nam potpisane predmete kako bi ih mogli pokloniti sudionicima Smrikve… za mene je taj trenutak prilika da podijelim dio njihovih priča sa djecom koja sanjaju poći njihovim stopama… i tako svako dijete koje je prisutno u tom trenutku međugeneracijskog slavlja ponese sa sobom predmet uspomene i nadam se da otkrije ponekad i jednog novog teniskog prijatelja čijim se uspjesima veseliti …

S osmjehom na licu pratim zahvaljujući Facebooku da su neka djeca Smrikve već počela stvarati obitelji i da svoju ljubav prema tenisu prenose na svoju djecu…

Rado dijelim i vijest da će se 9.ti Smrikva Bowl Tennis Talent Family Week (SBTTFW) 2025 ponovno održati sljedećeg proljećeća. Obiteljski tjedan je rođen sa vizijom da se živi jedan obiteljski godišnji odmor u kojem se mogu podijeliti iskustva koja mogu biti djeci i obiteljima od koristi u razvoju. Jedno posebno obiteljsko iskustvo.

Postoji već neko vrijeme u mojim mislima jedna ideja koju želim početi dijeliti sa djecom Smrikva Bowl-a jer je više djece Smrikve već sada spremnom za jedno takvo druženje…

Još u ljeto 1998., prije otprilike 26 godina, pohađao sam Citicorp Associate Development program u New Yorku … ovo mi je bila i prilika da posjetim US OPEN

Sjećam se da sam tada imao tek viziju o događaju koji se stvarao … Smrikva Bowl… bio je to san o stvaranju inspirativnog događaja … i među snovima sam razmišljao da bi mogao doći dan kad će među 100 najboljih ATP/WTA biti 25 bivših učesnika Smrikva Bowl-a…

Sjećam se i velike teniske loptice Wilson US OPEN koju sam kupio u New Yorku i učinio tradicijom da je pobjednici Smrikva Bowla potpisuju … poželjevši im da jednog dana podignu trofej US Opena… ova želja postala je istinita priča kada je Dominic Thiem, koji je loptu potpisao 2003., podigao pravi trofej US Opena 2020. godine …

U ovom trenutku dok pišem ovo pismo, postoji 44 igrača Smrikva Bowla koji su zapravo dosegli nivo prvih 100 ATP/WTA ljestvice… i prije dvije godine podizanjem US OPEN trofeja u New York-u je Carlos Alcaraz postao najmlađi #1 ATP igrač u povijesti tenisa… tako da i neki moji snovi već postaju stvarnost :) …

Postoji 90 igrača Smrikva Bowla koji su ušli u prvih 200 ATP/WTA, a ukupno su privredili više od 235M USD od turnirskih nagradnih fondova. Taj ukupni nagradni fond se povećava za dvoznamenkastu stopu na godišnjoj razini… a to uistinu jesu velike brojke… ali više od velikih brojeva, ovo su samo mnoge mogućnosti koje bi djeca Smrikva Bowl-a mogla oploditi u godinama koje dolaze …

Postoji i ta nova ideja u mojim mislima koju vrijedi početi dijeliti sa djecom Smrikve…

Sjećam se da se Citicorp Associate Development program Citicorp-a koji sam pohađao u to vrijeme smatrao jednim od najboljih programa financija na Wall Streetu svog vremena… Bio sam dio nevjerojatnog razreda i imali smo posebno inspirativne mentore… posebno me dojmio profesor Barry… imao je jedinstven način dijeljenja svog širokog znanja…

Te stvari koje sam naučio od Barryja pomogle su mi da shvatim stvarno financijsko stanje Fiat Grupe 2001. godine … i to znanje je zapravo pomoglo ovoj tvrtki da preživi jednu od svojih najdubljih financijskih kriza u svojoj stoljetnoj povijesti …

No, Barryjevih riječi, kojih se živo sjećam, priča je koju je podijelio sa nama jednog popodneva, u našoj zgradi Citicorp centra za obuku, da on ne podučava financije samo financijski obrazovane pojedince kao što smo to mi bili u to vrijeme, već prenosi i svoje znanje uspješnim profesionalnim sportašima.
Isprva mi nije bilo jasno zašto …

Zašto biste trebali podučavati financije nekoga tko je stvorio toliko financijske vrijednosti tijekom svoje sportske karijere koja bi mogla trajati stoljećima?

… i objasnio je da su nažalost mnogi uspješni profesionalci postali društveni problem u SAD -u … Još uvijek nisam shvaćao o čemu točno govori … tada nam je rekao da je većina profesionalnih sportaša u SAD -u pet godina nakon dovršetka uspješne karijere bez i jednog dolara. Govorimo u nekim sportovima o otprilike 3 od 4 poznata i uspješna igrača koji su svo svoje bogatstvo stečeno tijekom karijere potrošili u samo pet godina nakon što su završili s igranjem na profesionalnoj razini …

Naučio sam o ovom izazovu prije 26 godina, a i dan danas taj izazov je jednako postojan … bez obzira na to koliko sredstava privredili ako vam nedostaje osnovnog ekonomskog znanja, velika je vjerojatnost da ćete završiti među onih 75%+ financijski propalih zvijezdi…

Uvijek sam vjerovao da će djeca Smrikva Bowla sama izgraditi svoje puteve … a ima toliko onih koji se odlično snalaze u različitim područjima … zahvaljujući svojim teniskim vještinama više od 337 + je dobilo stipendiju za studiranje u SAD -u … i u trenutku pisanja ovog pisma 32 igrača Smrikva Bowl-a su prešli granicu od 1M USD osvojenih nagradnih fondova… i ima najmanje 5 igrača Smrikve koji će preći ovaj prag za manje od godinu dana …

Želim otvoriti ovu priliku dijeljenja znanja na svoj način uspostavljanjem mogućnosti da se igrači Smrikva Bowla s obiteljima vrate u Smrikve na odmor i steknu neke osnove o gore spomenutim elementima …

Zamišljam ovo iskustvo kao odmor… i priliku da se na kraju spozna nešto u emocionalno pozitivnom okruženju pa da se to pohrani i u dugoročno pamćenje… posjet Smrikvama je uvijek prilika za punjenje baterija i stvaranja novih uspomena …

1996. godine započelo pisanje priče o Smrikva Bowlu… 2007. godine je otvorena mogućnost povratka u Smrikve na obiteljski odmor kako bi se mogle usavršavati kako teniske tako i opće ljudske vještine u „La Bottegi“… 2015. godine je započeta sa prijateljem Lukom još jednu prilika za obiteljski odmor Smrikva Bowl Tennis Talents Family Week. Taj poseban obiteljski tjedan je zamišljen kao dijeljenje elemenata od značaja koji mogu pomoći da se poveća svijest o tome na što vrijedi obratiti pozornost u izgradnji svog obiteljskog puta prema velikom tenisu… i vjerujem da je ovo nova prilika još jedna dobra ideja za dodatan razvoj…

Sa zadovoljstvom dijelim u nastavku nekoliko priča koje u sebi nosi DNK Smrikva Bowl-a… i kako Rafiki voli reći… neke priče vrijede ponoviti i više puta…

Danas je 21.rujan, međunarodni dan mira, poznat i kao dan mira u svijetu… mnogi ljudi ga obilježavaju… a godinama unazad je baš taj dan igrom slučaja izabran i kao dan Ambasadora Smrikva Bowl-a… bez civilne zajednice u modernom svijetu nema garancija za mir…a bez mira teško je omogućiti potpuni razvoj talenata… tijekom proteklih godina i mjeseci smo ponovno vidjeli kako lako poteškoće i izazovi stavljeni pred ljude mogu brzo promijeniti život na koji smo navikli …

U našim životima, kao i u teniskom meču, uvijek nešto može krenuti u drugačijem smjeru od onoga što bi mi žaljeli… pa isto kao i u tenisu… nije važno što je krenulo krivo, već je uvijek važnija naša reakcija na to što je krenulo krivo…

Ako uspijemo prepoznati potencijalne prekretnice i izazove, one bi mogle postati samo jedno upozorenje, ali ako to ne učinimo, naši životi bi se mogli značajno promijeniti… a ako stvari nisu lake, svi se trebamo opskrbiti ogromnim strpljenjem jer stvari se nikad ne mijenjaju previše brzo kada već krenu u smjeru koji nam nije drag…

Prije više godina je za sve kandidate Smrikva Bowl-a uvedena obveza poštivanja Smrikva Bowl kodeksa sportskog ponašanja kako na terenu tako i van njega… i drago mi je podijeliti jednu malu spoznaju sa najmlađima… a to je da što više se vježba to postaje prirodnije biti primjerom… i samo nakon brojnih pogrešaka ako želimo iz njih učiti dobijamo priliku za postati bolji… naučiti prihvaćati izazove… pogotovo kad smo prisiljeni izaći iz komfort zone već poznatoga…

Ja vjerujem u ljepotu učenja i neiskustvo je vrlo moćno i dobro ako se prihvati kao izazov. Moj savjet tijekom orijentacijskog dana djeci Smrikve je da uvijek koriste svoje sposobnosti i svoju specijalnu putovnicu – „teniski reket“ za putovanja, stavaranje životnih iskustava… i vjerujem da će svako od njih jednog dana postati vrlo imućan ali ne radi novaca koje će privrediti već bogatstva koje će stvoriti svojim življenjem… to će biti dragocjeno bogatstvo za svoje unutarnje blagostanje koje im nitko neće moći oduzeti.

Prije dva desetljeća započeli smo tradiciju sadnje starije masline tijekom svečanosti imenovanja Ambasadora Smrikva Bowl-a. Prva odabrana maslina je bila starija od najstarijeg čovjeka na zemlji i prenosila je jednu poruku intergeneracijeke odgovornosti… svih ovih godina tijekom ceremonije, svaki Ambasador nastavio je polagati grudu zemlje blizu korijena masline i poklanjati svoje ime stablu …

Nakon što je 20 generacija poklonilo svoja imena i zasadilo naše već Legendarno drveće sljedeće godine biti ćemo spremni puniti našu 5.-tu vrlo posebnu i jedinstvenu “Heritage Smrikva Bowl Olive Oil” ograničenu kolekciju… kolekcijske boce se pune maslinovim uljem napravljeno od stabala posađenih od strane “sjemena Legendi” … maslinovo ulje sa 2000 priča…

Maslina je simbol mira u različitim kulturama mediterana… a njene godine na Smrikvi simboliziraju međugeneracijsku odgovornost i povezanost.

Crtići mi duži niz godina pomažu u pronalaženju načina komunikacije sa djecom i da se lakše razumijemo… Kralj Lavova je za današnji dan ponovni lijep izbor da se ponovi priča stare masline… priču koju rado dijelim na svjetski dan mira… i vezana je uz priču kruga života…

Svi se mi rađamo ne znajući puno o životu na zemlji…

… i možda se sjetite dijela kada Mufasa objašnjava Simbi da nije lako biti kralj… kaže mu kako bi dobar kralj trebao znati da sve oko nas živi u delikatnoj ravnoteži i da sa inteligencijom trebamo pokušati razumjeti tu ravnotežu i poštivati je.

Želim podijeliti sa djecom Smrikve da nije lako biti veliki tenisač… nije lako biti nadahnuće drugoj djeci i generacijama koje dolaze… nije lako voditi svojim primjerom… puno je lakše eksplodirati s vremena na vrijeme… ljutiti se i iskazati frustraciju… a puno teže zadržati svoj um mirnim i na taj način učiniti da djeca požele biti poput vas jednoga dana…

Mufasa je pokušavao naučiti svog sina Simbu važnosti promatranja prirode … važnosti znatiželje … i učio ga je poštivanju prirode i razumijevanju važnosti svih različitih stvorenja i njihovog značaja u krugu života…

Jedan od dobitnika Nobelove nagrade za mir, koji je bio gost grupe kojoj sam pripadao, ostavio nam je jedan zapis za uspomenu… jednu poruku u kojoj kaže: “Budućnost je uvijek u manjini. Iako je povijest budućnosti važnija od već proživljene povijesti. Za starije je da se sjećaju prošlosti. Za mlade je da stvaraju svijet budućnosti.

Učinite to! Možete stvoriti svijet bez ratova… Možete stvoriti bolji svijet.”

Potpisana teniska lopta Nobelovca za mir sa zapisanom gornjom porukom dragocjena je uspomena koja se čuva u Smrikvama i koju volim dijeliti sa djecom Smrikve …

U meni se kroz godine razvila ideja kako je mir uvijek u nestabilnoj ravnoteži i kroz inteligenciju bi ga trebali razumijeti i naučiti poštivati. Znanje, ljudska znatiželja i želja za usavršavanjem su važni… i svi su oni temelji jedne civilne zajednice.

Dobitnik Nobelove nagrade je u svoj poruci rekao: “Učinite to!” i tako me podsjetio na Yodinu mudrost kada je dijeli sa mladim Skywalkerom i kada mu kaže: “Čini. Ili nemoj činiti”…

Knjige predstavljaju jednu veliku ljudsku memoriju… koje nam mogu pomoći da razumijemo ono što živimo, to je i jedan od razloga početka stvaranja još jednog nasljeđa kroz biblioteku Smrikva Bowl-a… Isto tako vrijedi spomenuti krtost kruga života i lakoće da ljudski nemar velikom brzinom ostane bez nakupljenog saznanja i iskustva starijih generacija. Dovoljno je par generacija nemara da se zaboravi to veliko ljudsko nasljeđe… a još manje od par generacija je dovoljno da se izgube neke od osnovnih vrijednosti civilizacije…

Naučeni smo na brz tehnološki napredak, ali socijalni i društveni napredak čovjeka je sporiji i puno kompleksniji… Ljudi uče tijekom cijelog života i najviše iz osobnog životnog iskustva… Vrijedi ne zaboraviti da civilizacija ili ono što smatramo civilizacijom smo danas samo mi i nitko drugi…

Ovo je jedna važna misao. Ljudski životni vijek je danas oko 80 godina… i ono što nazivamo civilizacijom je nakupljeno iskustvo ljudskog roda do danas, koje naše institucije prenose na mlade naraštaje…

Posvetio sam preko 6000 radnih sati prilikom stvaranja kulturno-baštinske knjige o Istri koja nosi ime “Istria from Smrikve” i ova knjiga je od 2009. godine moj knjižni dar svakom odabranom djetetu Smrikve u zamjenu za knjigu koju donese i daruje Smrikva Bowl knjižnici… stvarajući tu knjigu sam spoznao da preko 50% mjesta koja sam opisao u knjizi ima 4000 godina neprekidnog života… i imam osjećaj da sam spoznao po meni jednu važnu poruku koju rado dijelim…

U kojem god socijalno društvenom okruženju da ste rođeni… budite spremni da će se to okruženje mijenjati tijekom vašeg života… činjenice i mišljenja nastavit će se miješati kako budete rasli, ali kada vam je um miran i smiren, moći ćete jasno razaznati što je dobro za društvo u kojem živite od onoga što nije toliko dobro… to je slično izboru koji igrač radi kada donosi odluku da li da krene putem teniske igre ili putem varanja… moj san za djecu Smrikve je da odabiru onaj teži put… put koji se zove tenis…

Međunarodni dan mira, slavljen na isti dan Ambasadora Smrikve, je svakako dobar dan da se krene sa potragom talenata… i sa ovim pismom će kao po tradiciji biti otvoren proces okupljanja kandidata za 30. Smrikva Bowl 2025.

30. Smrikva Bowl 2025. će se održati u Puli (Istri – Hrvatskoj) od (21.) 23. – 28. lipnja 2025. godine… a godina koja dolazi će biti posvećena talentiranim igračima rođenim 2015.godine…

Kada razmišljam o nasljeđu Smrikva Bowl-a… često ga u prvoj misli fizički zamišljam kao teatar… jedan teatar u koji se svake godine uloži puno truda da se pripremi pozornica na kojoj se djeca mogu sastati… i svake godine gledamo okupiti talente iz različitih kulutura svijeta sa različitim snovima….

Mi pripremimo pozornicu i kasnije oni svojom upornošću… budu ti koji pišu najrazličitije životne priče…

Smrikve je poput mjesta na kojem se iz godine u godinu sadi sjeme legendi … a dječje priče i životne priče obitelji Smrikve nakon odlaska iz Smrikvi postaju poput živog stabla jedne bajke koje se iz godine u godinu razvija u najrazličitijim smjerovima. ..

Nematerijalni dio našeg kazališta je to nešto “više od tenisa”… što god to značilo… i uvijek sam želio da to može značiti nešto mrvicu drugačije za svaku osobu koja je došla u kontakt sa pričom Smrikva Bowl-a…

Smrikva Bowl je još uvijek mlad turnir i previše rano je mjeriti njenu ostavštinu… ali oduvijek vjerujem da će više djece napisati inspirativne priče u najrazličitijim profesijama koje odaberu… i uvijek mi je neizmjerno drago prepoznati novo ime među onima koji su uspjeli nastaviti školovanje u SAD-u zahvaljujući svojoj teniskoj vještini

Kako godine prolaze čini se sve više i više vjerojatno da će veći broj djece Smrikve osvajati velike Grand Slam turnire… već su osvojili 51 Grand Slam titula… a da budem iskren moja želja za “sjeme Legendi” je oduvijek nadilazila snove Grand Slam-ova… ponekad ga zovem i petim grand slamom…

Znam da po statistikama samo nekoliko djece Smrikve ima šansu dostići vrh profesionalnog tenisa, ali volim vjerovati da će brojni biti uspješni u drugim profesijama u koje ih život nanese… jer ljudi trebaju inspiraciju … trebamo inspiraciju ne samo u sportu već u najrazličitijim poljima …

Danas je mnogo izazova pred nama i oni su prisutni svakoga dana… i samo jedno je sigurno a to je da će u budućnosti uvijek biti mnogo novih izazova… vrijedi se sjetiti da trebamo divergentno razmišljanje kako bi lakše pronašli rješenja za izazove koji se danas čine kompliciranijima od onoga što jesu … a djeca su ti mali geniji koji nam mogu pokazati put … jer u biti vrijedi ne zaboraviti da uvijek su odrasli oni koji budućnost posuđuju od djece …

Vjerujem da nikada neću saznati koliko djece igra Smrikva Bowl zato što bi njihovi roditelji željeli da postanu profesionalni igrači a koliko njih igra jer voli i uživa u teniskoj igri…

… ali ono u što vjerujem je da svaki sport može pomoći djeci u svome rastu i isto tako znam da ljudi koji su odlični u bilo čemu su se potpuno posvetili tome i bilo je potrebno puno truda da bi se postigla izvrsnost kojom zadivljuju i inspiriraju druge ljude…

Ovo je važno naglasiti za bilo koje područje… tko god je u vašoj blizini vrlo dobar u činjenju nečega za zajednicu, ta osoba je sigurno posvetila značajan dio svog vremena sa strašću kako bi ovladao profesiju od koje zajednica ima koristi… i svaki put kad prepoznate takvu osobu oko sebe trebali biste je cijeniti… u isto vrijeme ako osoba bez strasti i bez vještina preuzme odgovornost za nešto što je važno za zajednicu budite spremni da će cijela zajednica snositi posljedice koje dugoročno mogu biti vrlo bolne…

Još uvijek poneko u dobroj vjeri zaluta na Smrikvu, misleći da je to neko „jako važno“ natjecanje… ponekad ne razumijevajući da rezultat nije taj glavni skriveni ključ Smrikva Bowl-a… i svake godine trebam pomoć Ambasadora Smrikve u objašnjenju kako je Smrikva Bowl nešto više od „važnog“ natjecanja…

Detaljnu prezentaciju s obrascem za prijavu i ostalim uputama glede 30.-og Smrikva Bowl-a 2025.te se od danas nalaze na internet stranici Smrikva Bowl-a.

Smrikva Bowl je od svog početka nešto „više od tenisa“… jedan mali rođendan… i lijepo je ostaviti interpretaciju onoga nešto „više od tenisa“ svakom Ambasadoru Smrikve osobno… njihovim osjećajima jer oni pomažu i ispisuju tu priču…

Danas je ulje i vino Smrikva Bowl-a dotaklo 111 zemlju svijeta zahvaljujući obiteljima Smrikve… naše su količine oduvijek ograničene… kao što je ograničen broj igrača koje možemo pozvati svake godine… ali ponovno vjerujem da će jednoga dana i maslinovo ulje sa stabala koja su sadila djeca Smrikve postati jedno od najposebnijih na svijetu… a za mene to već i danas ono je…

Zadnjih godina broj posjetitelja Istre uvijek lagano raste i hvala svima koji su nas posjetili i time doprinijeli tom razvoju… a “Istria from Smrikve” ostaje jedna poklon knjiga svim prijateljima… poklon Ambasadorima Smrikva Bowl-a koja je 2009.godine dodala misiji Ambasadora Smrikve zadaću da uz traženje talenata pomognu širiti riječ o Istri kao kulturnoj destinaciji koju vrijedi posjetiti i očuvati… i nadam se da će ova knjiga jednoga dana biti prepoznata zahvaljujući djeci Smrikva Bowl-a…

Broj primljenih talenata na sljedeću Smrikvu će biti 48 igrača (24 dječaka i 24 djevojčica) … i vaša pomoć pri selekciji i preporuke će biti kao i do sada od iznimne važnosti …

Ako poznajete neko talentirano dijete rođeno 2015. godine koje bi zavrijedilo zaigrati na Smrikvi ili se želite i sami kandidirati za obiteljski tjedan SBTTFW 2025., ili za odmor SBM+HFW 2025 mi slobodno pišite…

I za kraj mog uvijek dugačkog pisma… želim djeci Smrikve da nastave inspirirati primjerom drugu djecu… i nadam se da će netko od njih učiniti stvarnim riječi Nelsona Mandele kada kaže da “Sport ima snagu da mijenja svijet, ima snagu da inspirira i da ujedinjuje ljude kako što malo što drugo može.”

Hvala na vremenu… hvala na posjeti i hvala za dijeljenje s prijateljima priče o Smrikvi,

Mio

Today we collected grapes and started the 30th Smrikva Bowl 2025 - Smrikve Malvazija & Angvšta wine production

We just collected grapes and started 2025 Smrikve wine production… the wine collection of limited 90+ bottles will be made as per tradition… and around 50+ bottles will be donated to the families participating the 30th Smrikva Bowl 2025 edition…

As per tradition we will do our best to make good wine…

Yesterday we collected our red grapes and this morning we wake up at 6:30 AM to start to collect our Malmsey grapes – Malvasia…

Smrikve Malvazija is thanks to the Smrikva Bowl Ambassadors spread in 111 countries and all the continents. Last year we created a limited collection of 100 bottles and never above 150 bottles… it is always a gift of our family to the Smrikva Bowl families and to our friends.

Wine and gastronomy are part of a culture and wine bottle that we give to every Smrikva Bowl family is part of our cultural gift that every year we are pleased to make to our guests coming from all around the World.

The wine making is the tradition in Smrikve since 1957…

The wine production is a passion for many Istrian families and my grandfather Mate was a great lower of wine and wine making. The first thing he made in 1957 when he settled in Smrikve was planting the vineyard.

Probably not many Smrikva Bowl readers do know the story how my grandfather agreed to take out a row of vineyard to create the space for the court where today the Smrikva Bowl finals are played.

My father, me and my Uncle continue the wine making tradition in Smrikve…

Two decades ago I bought a vineyard close to the vineyard planted by my grandfather and today my father and me are doing our best to get the best from what Malvasia grapes can give.

The first phase of the processing the grapes started today…

We collected the grapes but also separated the juice of the rest to obtain the golden color that usually our Istrian Malvazija (Malmsey) wine has. Now for two days the fermentation will be blocked to allow the wine to start its transformation process cleaner than it is today after the collection.

In Smrikve we produce Istrian Malvazija (Malmsey) and during the Smrikva Bowl we use to give a bottle of wine to every family as a memory to their Smrikva Bowl. Probably one day this bottles might be something special if our kids continue to love tennis game and continue to write the Smrikva Bowl story with their results.

Wine as part of the culture…

In the regions where the wine is produced the wine was always part of the culture of the particular site. Also the wine we produce is part of the Smrikve tradition and this is the reason why we are pleased to give a bottle to every family that come to visit us for the Smrikva Bowl.

There is an old Istrian saying: ”Vino od loze i mliko od koze” and “Kruh je za tilo a vino je za dušu”. The translation from Croatian is difficult because you loose the feel of the language. Goat is the symbol of Istria and the meaning of the first saying would be: ”Wine from the grapevine and milk from the goat” and the meaning of the second would be: “Bread is for the body, wine is for the soul”.

With today’s collection as I said we started the process of transforming the grapes into wine for the 30th Smrikva Bowl 2025 edition.

The main Istrian wines are: Malvazija, Terran, Refosc and Muscatel.

The glory of the Istrian wine dates back to over 2000 years ago…

For those who are not familiar with Istrian wine I am pleased to remind the reader that Istrian wine was considered one of the best in the Roman Empire, around 20 centuries ago, and was preferred by Livia Drusilla, also known as Iulia Augusta, the wife of the first Roman Emperor Augustus.

Livia Drusilla’s preferred wine was the Istrian wine Pucinum. Livia is considered one of the most influent women in the beginning of the Roman Empire era. It is not know what wine it was because todays wines were brought in Istria mostly by Venetians.

Todays Istrian Malvazija’s story is related with Serenissima… the Venetian Republic

The story of Istrian Malvazija, cultivated in Istria since the end of the 16th century, is fascinating and it relates to the Venetians.

At the beginning of the 15th century the Venetians occupied Peloponnesus in Greece. In the Peloponnesus region there is a town Monemvassia, also named Malvasia. From this town the Venetians started to import the wine into Venice and the other areas controlled by the Venetian Republic.

This wine was so successful and became so famous all over Europe that Venetians decided to plant huge vineyards on the biggest Greek island, Crete.

Between the 16th and 18th century Malvasia become the most important wine in Europe. In 1570 the Turks conquered Crete and Venetians decided to plant Malvasia vineyards in other areas that had friendly relations with Venice which, at that time, also included Istria.

In end Malvasia is in Istria since the above mentioned period while it is not known the sort of the wine that was preferred by the wife of the Emperor Augustus, Livia Drusilla – Julia Augusta.

Giacomo Casanova in his diary talks about another Istrian sort and another great wine…

Giacomo Casanova visited Vrsar several times and in his diary he describes a good wine Refosc and nice women… That Refosc could be Terran too because if you look at the grapes you will hardly note the difference and today Refosc is mostly cultivated in the Slovenian part of Istria while in other areas the dominant sort is Malvasia.

Another excellent wine can be found around Momjan area made of Muscatel sort.

On Istria from Smrikve you can learn much more…

To learn more about Istrian gastronomy and wine please visit the E-book about Istrian cultural heritage on www.smrikve.com/istria/ named “Istria from Smrikve”

From today… the most important part of wine transformation process starts ;)… and at the beginning of November we will make the first quality level tasting check :)…

Smrikva Bowl finals are played since 1996 with linesman and ball kids… it was a nice morning with the sky ready for the finals…

… the stage was prepared early in the morning…

… and some seeds of the future dreams were planted…

At 8:30 AM everything was ready for the final act of this year 29th Smrikva Bowl 2024 Opera stage… the central court was ready :)

When I think of Smrikva Bowl I try to imagine it as a theater where every year we work hard to set a stage where the world’s talents can gather… Every year we gather all these different actors, great talents, very special kids, arriving from different cultures, having different dreams,…

We set the stage and later on they are in charge with their will, dreams and hard work… they are the ones who write the most different stories…

The Finals and Awarding ceremony day of the 29th annual started with traditional Staff and Ball Kids gathering…

and here are 12 ball kids out over 70 Staff Members who behind the curtains directed the Opera to make our actors perform at their best…

Tia, Serena, Monika, Juraj, Ethan, Ariel, Tim, Edgar, Marta, Celine, Mikael & Zoe… were this year with us in the finals ball kids team…

Damir and Tamara made the final instructions to our this year Staff seeds…

and here we are all together ready to jump into another wonderful finals…

… over 140 invisible hands that make MORE THEN TENNIS a reality for a week… year after year…

Mathilde Hartvingsen Dianati crowned herself the 29th Smrikva Bowl 2024 edition winner… her brother Philip made it two years ago till the semifinals… and the sister was able to climb few more stairs this time…

I am sure this is only one of the first meetings for the most Smrikva kids and there will be many matches in the future for most of them… and many opportunities to measure their skills development…

… after the girls exhibition of their skills it was the time of boys…

… and after girls Consolation finals at the court #2 the boys Consolation finals started… between Ruan Stefan Coman from Romania and David Richter from Austria…

After the presentation of the actors of the Day who made it into the finals… I am pleased to share a little piece of the Smrikva Bowl Ambassadors Day celebrated on 21st of September… because today we spent on Brioni Islands… once upon a time named the Islands of Peace…

Smrikve, September 2010

The International Day of Peace, also known as the World Peace Day, occurs annually on September 21st and this day has been elected to be also the Smrikva Bowl Ambassadors’ Day.

It is dedicated to peace, or specifically the absence of war, such as might be occasioned by a temporary ceasefire in a combat zone. It is observed by many people. For the first time this holiday was celebrated in 1981.

The Smrikva Bowl Ambassadors Day, although celebrated on the same day as the World Peace Day, is dedicated to civilization , intergenerational responsibility and tennis. Without civil society in a modern world there is no guarantee for peace.

In 1981 the United Nations General Assembly declared, in a resolution sponsored by the United Kingdom and Costa Rica, the third Tuesday of September (the opening day of regular sessions of the General Assembly) as the International Day of Peace devoted to commemorating and strengthening the ideals of peace and civilization values.

In 2001, the day was changed from the third Tuesday to specifically the twenty-first day of September. A new resolution was passed by the General Assembly, sponsored by the United Kingdom (giving credit to Peace One Day) and Costa Rica (the sponsors of the original day) to give the Day of Peace a fixed date and declare it as a global ceasefire day.

In 1991, on September 21st, I left Smrikve for Milan, it was the war time in my country, 5 years before, on the same day, in 1986, I sailed with a boat to Dubrovnik with school friends living a nice life time memory experience.

Having our calendar year 365 days if we live for some time and create our own experience we learn that the same day can remind us something nice and something not nice… it is a circle…

Not nice could be compared to a mistake in tennis… we learn from the mistakes. They help us understand what is not good or what we do not do properly…

To end this comment I am pleased to repeat words of a Nobel Prize for Peace who was guest speaker to one of Ambrosetti’s Young Leader Group meetings. It is a tradition that every guest dedicate few words to the Group and he wrote down the following:

“The future is always in a minority. Yet the history of the future is more important than the history of the past. It is for the old to remember the past. It is for the young to build the world of tomorrow.

Do it! You can build a world without wars. You can build a new humanity.”

Everything around us lives in a delicate equilibrium and with intelligence we should try to understand it and respect it. The knowledge, human curiosity and will to learn are important. They are all parts of the civilization path.

Shimon Peres used in his note the statement: “Do it!” thus reminded me Yoda’s wisdom words when he shares his knowledge with young Jedi: “Try not. Do or do not “ :)

If people believe in the future there is future. If people do not believe in the future there is no future.

Miodrag Bozovic

… and tomorrow is the single FINALS Day… the day of the Cake…

Awarding Ceremony Day…

and the Day of the Swimming Pool :D

… and before going into a new day once again congratulations to the finalist, semifinalists and quarterfinalist of the IGRA Game who made our pizza night special…

and those who assisted this year theater show may have noticed that the names of the player mentioned in our articles are often not related with the pictures presented…

…they follow Yoda way of speaking… and often are inverted…

for those not familiar with Yoda… I will borrow one of his saying to finish the article of today…

Luke : “I’m looking for a great warrior”
Yoda: “ Wars not make one great “

Just few promised words behind Smrikva ;)…

Smrikva Bowl mission is to inspire, develop and spread cosmopolitan values.

Love, friendship and empathy are cosmopolitan values per excellence for people and humanity…

What does that mean?…

CULTURE, CHILDREN, SPORT and MUSIC are part of the Smrikva Bowl idea of the cosmopolitan world. It is a matter of civilization …

…a truly wise windy, product of imagination, once whispered… “Truly wonderful, the mind of a child is.” (M.Y.)… and fairy tales seems to help that beauty…

… but I am sure you will cross in the future with the following opinion… “If you want your children to be intelligent, read them fairy tales. If you want them to be more intelligent, read them more fairy tales.” (A.E.)…

I noted that all of you are very calm during hard points… and usually in tennis game, as well as in many other fields, it does not matter what goes wrong but your reaction to it…

… we prepared special gifts for the Lucky Draw for various generations thanks to…

I am pleased to recall our Smrikva Bowl “Lucky Draw” contributors:

… and their success could teach us how fear and anger are for the brain the same as cramps for the muscles…

and… what Master Yoda noted “Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering.”…

… in tennis seems to be the same… if you want to win more… you master your skills and believe in your game ;)

There are different ways to look at sport. There are different ways to look at music, culture, love and also to children.

The vision of sport preferred in Smrikve can be described and extended to: culture, music and children using the following Nelson Mandela – Madiba’s words…

… “Sport has the power to change the world, the power to inspire and the power to unite people in a way little else can – it is an instrument of peace.”

… a wise men living in China 2500 years ago once observed… “To put the world in order, we must first put the nation in order; to put the nation in order, we must put the family in order; to put the family in order, we must cultivate our personal life; and to cultivate our personal life, we must first set our hearts right.” …

hmmm… sounds very interesting… hm hm :)
an interesting opinion…

… and to set your heart right you need good characters… those who wish to contribute to the greater public good had to begin by working on themselves…

… only then they will see progress radiate out from their personal circles to society at large…

Tomorrow is the semifinals day…

the BRIONI Islands Day…

and IGRA GAME Day :D…

a lot to do and a lot to see ;)….

GO SMRIKVA GO!!! :D

FEW WORDS ABOUT L…

The strongest force among human beings is named “Love”. Love can be very powerful but can also be very painful force.

THE LITTLE PRINCE…by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry… is a very special book that every person at different age read differently.

It is a book that last over time and was likely the last love gift Antoine de Saint-Exupéry made to his wife Consuelo de Saint-Exupéry.

Over time this book was translated in many different languages thus become a love gift for many generations around the world.

It is a children’s book writen for the olders… I like many parts of it… especially the description that Antoine make of the adult people…

the description of the moment when the rose was born… the importance of the right orders on the King’s planet…

“you never know” statement…

the meeting with the wise fox…

the smiling stars and many other parts…

Only best friends, when they trust each other, do share their deep knowledge…

and once The Little Prince and the fox created such a special relationship the fox shared a secret with him…

“Goodbye, said the fox. And now here is my secret, a very simple secret.

It is only with the heart that one can see rightly.

What is essential is invisible to the eye.”

Antoine de Saint-Exupéry beleived that: Love does not consist of gazing at each other, but in looking outward together in the same direction.

“Ljubav ne zahtjeva da dvoje ljudi gledaju jedno u drugo, već da zajedno gledaju u istom pravcu”.
