SidelineSRB turns seven today. A labour of love, dedication and accomplishments. As per tradition, I’m writing a bilingual Birthday article.

Sajt SidelineSRB danas slavi sedmi rođendan. Napravljen kao otelotvorenje ljubavi prema sportu i pisanju, posvećenosti i ciljeva: mnogih ostvarenih i onih koji tek predstoje.

Na današnji dan pre šest godina nastao je SidelineSRB. U dnevnoj sobi sa inicijalima J.L. zvanično sam zašla u svet sportskog novinarstva na svojoj centralizovanoj platformi. Danas je višestruko poseban dan, jer osim rođendana slavimo i početak Olimpijskih igara. Sve se poklopilo baš kako treba.

Today marks 6 years since I created SidelineSRB. Under a test-name and only my initials I ventured into the world of web-journalism. This year the site’s birthday coincides with the start of the Olympics. Although many things have changed, the love remains the same, as well as the desire to raise awareness towards the female presence in the media.

Važno obaveštenje:

Dragi moji,

Sajt trenutno prolazi kroz proces izmena, te neke funkcije privremeno neće biti dostupne, poput neometanog pregleda fotografija i snimaka. Trudiću se da vreme ovakvog rada svedem na minimum i eventualne probleme rešim u najkraćem roku.

Hvala vam na strpljenju.


I hope you’re liking the changes in the layout

WordPress has given me a lot to chose from. It’s not all done, but I’m happy to say things are getting there.  Feel free to write any suggestions and let me know what you’d like to see in the future.

Before the UEL continues, get a reminder of Zvezda’s and Partizan’s current standings.

Make sure you follow me on Instagram for more amazing photos daily.


Nadam se da vam se dopadaju dosadašnje izmene. Za sve predloge, već znate – pišite u komentarima. 

Do početka nove nedelje Lige Evrope, prisetite se poslednjih utakmica Zvezde i Partizana.

There will be changes to this blog, both the technical and the aesthetic part.

Hence, the site might be offline in the upcoming days, as I’m working on a new setup. With some help.

Hopefully I will have some material for you by the end of the Eurobasket QFs.

Thank you for your patience.

 

More articles coming up. 🙂

Serbian football tho (league and match reviews) is still staying in full Serbian, unless further interest increases. The potentially featured Serbian national team matches will get a longer English recap.

Happy reading. x

The always necessary daily dose of inspiration. To me, it is these boys. Serbia’s waterpolo National Team. Aside from athletic inspiration, the Dolphins represent an example of commitment, dedication and hard work that really does pay off.

I took this image last winter, on the European Championship, played right here in Belgrade. On which, Serbia won… You’ve guessed it, gold.

The new and improved version of the site

Some of the better known features, such as multilingual posts are here to stay, this time with a more comprehensive layout, a cleaner look, and most important of all, a brand new name. 

Since this is a blog written by someone who spends most of her time around a pitch, closer to the sidelines, and since blogging lets me take all of you there with me… Sideline it is. 

It’s an absolute pleasure (and an occasional torturous wifi moment, if we’re being honest), to bring anyone to the sidelines of a sporting event, willing to take a look, and potentially  see a match or a team from a slightly different angle than expected.

As always, your support through likes, shares and follows means a lot, so I thank you. 

Now buckle up, people. We’re just getting started.


Sa ponosom vam predstavljam novu verziju bloga

Sve je novo, počevši od imena, do izgleda. Prepoznatljivi deo višejezičnih tekstova ostaje, iz dobro poznatih razloga. Kako bi što više čitalaca imalo prilike da razume tekst i tako pogleda sportski događaj iz još neke perspektive.

Kao što znate, ovaj blog pišem najčešće iz ugla blizu aut-linije, pa je bilo i logično da stranicu preimenujem shodno tome. Sideline je linija auta. Drugačije rečeno, prostor najbliži samom terenu.

Imati mogućnost, da prenesem makar deo doživljaja sa neke utakmice čitaocima iz udaljenih delova sveta, onima koji o srpskom sportu znaju malo, ili ljudima koji prosto nisu imali vremena da odu na neki od mečeva, fenomenalan je osećaj i zahvalna sam vam na pažnji koju posvećujete sadržajima ovog bloga.

U budućnosti se nadam mnogo većim pričama i bližem pogledu na stvari, koji ćemo deliti zajedno. Ne mrdajte, na dobrom smo putu. 🙂

This weekend, a lot is going to change. And I can’t wait to share it with all of you. Stay tuned.
