At NK Olimpija Ljubljana, we strongly condemn all forms of violence and inappropriate behavior at sporting events. The physical altercation between parents at the Piran Trophy tournament, witnessed by children, is unacceptable and completely contrary to the values we uphold in our football academy.

Football is not just a competition; it is also a school of respect, responsibility, tolerance, and team spirit. Adults are obliged to be role models for children, not a source of fear and disappointment.

Therefore, NK Olimpija will hold discussions with the parents of children attending our academy and adopt a code of conduct for academy matches, which will clearly define expectations and rules of behavior around football pitches.

Violence has no place in football. Children deserve a safe and supportive environment where the joy of the game and mutual respect will always be more important than the result.
