More sporting action lies ahead

In the 18. round of the Serbian League, Vojvodina group, Hajduk’s footballers travel to Pančevo, where they will face Dinamo. The Kula team have made a good start to the spring season: they brought back a point from Zrenjanin, then followed it up with a win against Tisa, so it is understandable that they are heading to Pančevo with considerable optimism. With Radmanović suspended and Šakić injured, Hajduk’s starting lineup is uncertain, but coach Željko Račić says that whoever starts the match will be the best choice at that moment and will be able to give their all against a direct rival in the fight to stay up. The match between Dinamo and Hajduk will be played in Pančevo tomorrow, kicking off at 15.

In the 18 round of the Sombor District League, Crvenka's footballers host Polet from Karavukovo. Crvenka have made a great start to the spring season, with two convincing wins, and there is no reason they should not continue in the same vein, especially with the support of their fans. The match between Crvenka and Polet from Karavukovo will be played tomorrow at the “Milorad Džomba” Stadium in Crvenka, kicking off at 15. The other two of our representatives in the District League will play their matches on Sunday. Lipar will host Budućnost from Parage in front of their fans and are aiming for a win, while Rusin from Ruski Krstur will visit Radnički in Ratkovo for the round's derby. The hosts are third in the table, one point ahead of Rusin, who have taken maximum points from the first two spring rounds and have declared their candidacy for second place, which leads to a playoff for promotion to a higher division. The matches in Lipar and Ratkovo will also kick off at 15.

In the 15 round of the Sombor Inter-Municipal League, First Division, Kula are the only one of our three teams playing at home. On Sunday, Kula host Zadrugar from Srpski Miletić at Geder, and a win is essential if the people of Kula are to remain in the race for first place. Polet from Sivac are away to Aleksa Šantić, while Mladost from Kruščić will play Dunav in Bački Monoštor. All the scheduled matches begin at 14 hours and 30 minutes.

There is no men’s handball this weekend because of EHF Week, but the women’s handball teams will be in action. In round 15 of the First League championship, young Crvenka handball team Laki will host Mokrin in a bottom-of-the-table clash. Laki are second from bottom, while Mokrin are last, so a win for the young women from Crvenka is to be expected. The Laki–Mokrin match will be played tomorrow at the Slobodan Čile Mišković Hall in Crvenka, starting at 18 o’clock. Our other First League team, Sivac’s Krule, will visit Zrenjanin on Sunday, where they will face Proleter from 18 o’clock.
