“I am banned for making the sign of the cross at the Olympic Games” | Nemanja Majdov
The Serbian world champion, Nemanja Majdov, was severely punished by the International Judo Federation for making the sign of the cross upon entering a match at the Olympic Games. Nemanja received a five-month suspension for violating the Federation’s religious codes, as announced. In a statement he made, he pointed out the following:
“15 days ago, I received a 5-month suspension from the International Judo Federation (IJF) for violating their religious code. Specifically, I was punished for making the sign of the cross before a match at the Olympic Games.
I am banned from all tournaments, camps, and training.
Truthfully, in my defense letter for the disciplinary proceedings, I refused to apologize for making the sign of the cross, and of course, I haven’t, nor will I ever, even though I didn’t know how severe the punishment could be.
The Lord has given me everything, both personally and for my career, and He is number one for me. I am proud of that. And that will not change under any circumstances. Glory to Him and thanks for everything.
For me personally, this is nothing new, just a new page in my career and a new life experience. It’s a shame that such a beautiful and tough sport like judo has come to this.
God has given me a great career, 7 European and 3 World medals. When I started, I dreamed of winning at least one of those big medals and thus succeeding in my life and the life of my family who sacrificed everything for my career. He gave us so much more, and we owe Him so much that I couldn’t bow my head to them when it came to standing up for my beliefs.
We will rest until that time, and then return with the help of our Lord Jesus Christ for a new beginning and new victories.
Love, Nemanja Majdov, your European and World Champion.”
