The club’s colours are defended through work, conduct and every new day in which you become a better person.
OPNZPS Manifesto
OPNZPS Manifesto
This is not a list of rules. It is a compass for every child of Partizan.
How to wear the crest, how to win, how to lose and how to remain human—with discipline, fairness and resolve.
Partizan
Family
Serbia
A training session can be replaced. Education, character and the habit of learning remain for life.
You have not won before the whistle and you have not lost before the end. Believe in yourself and in miracles.
01
Honour and belonging
You wear the Partizan crest
The crest is not decoration. It is a duty to train, learn, show respect and become better every day.
Wear the Partizan crest with honour and defend the club’s colours by improving every day—as an athlete and as a person.
Be a person, not a number.
Train to be healthy and happy.
Victories and titles will follow when you work, train, think and learn to make good decisions at the right moment.
02
Knowledge and vocation
Live for sport, learn for life
Partizan can be honoured both on and off the field. The greatest victory is when sport shapes a good, educated and useful person.
Very few people make their living solely from sport.
Live for sport, learn skills that will help you in life, and keep learning.
Never neglect school because of sport.
You can make up a training session, but Partizan’s children must never give up on their education.
You can bring honour to Partizan on a pitch, track, in a pool or in an arena.
You can also bring it honour as a scholar, artist, parent, worker, entrepreneur, soldier, engineer, inventor, doctor or in any vocation you choose.
03
Work without shortcuts
Your weaknesses show the way
Discipline is not punishment. It is the way we build ourselves where it is most difficult.
At Partizan, learn discipline and perseverance.
Success is never easy and there are no shortcuts.
Your weaknesses show you the road ahead.
Work hardest on what you find most difficult.
Improve your weaknesses in sport today and in life tomorrow.
04
The club above the individual
You play for Partizan
Talent is not an excuse for vanity. It is an opportunity to leave a mark and make Partizan greater through your contribution.
You play for Partizan; Partizan does not play for you.
If you are talented and have a promising career, do not treat the club merely as a stepping stone to a supposedly bigger one.
Write your name among the club’s legends so that Partizan becomes greater because of you.
Listen carefully to your coaches and speak with them—but remember that you have two ears, two eyes and only one mouth.
Listen and observe twice as much as you speak.
05
Belief until the final whistle
The game is played until the end
In the black-and-white jersey there is no surrender before the end—whether you lead or trail.
The game is played until the end.
Never celebrate too early or surrender before the final whistle or the finish line.
You have not won before that final moment.
Always fight until the end, because you have not lost before the game is over, however little time remains.
Believe in yourself and in miracles.
You wear the Partizan crest.
06
Victory and defeat
Hold your head high after defeat
Victory must not carry you away, and defeat must not break you. Both are lessons.
Remain humble in victory and hold your head high after defeat.
Every experience is a stage in your growth as an athlete and a good person.
Celebrate with dignity and accept defeat with even greater dignity.
Do not seek excuses for a poor result.
Be honest with yourself, overcome defeat and do not repeat the same mistake.
Never underestimate or belittle an opponent.
07
Friend, team and humanity
Your team is a chain
A team is not built on talent alone. It is built by how we treat the weakest link and the person beside us.
Your team is a chain.
A chain is only as strong as its weakest link.
Always help a teammate when they are struggling.
Do not judge people around you by faith, nationality or skin colour.
Judge them by how they respond to the good and evil they encounter.
08
Beyond the field
Never let Partizan leave you
When the game ends, what remains is what you learned: discipline, fairness, defending the vulnerable and pursuing a worthy goal.
When you leave Partizan, never allow Partizan to leave you.
Fight through life as you fought on the field.
Be disciplined and fair, with a worthy goal before you.
You are a child of Partizan.
Never target those weaker than you at school or anywhere else.
Remember that there are at least three kinds of people.
The first are bullies who mistreat those weaker than themselves.
The second are those who are vulnerable and often mistreated; whenever you can, help and protect them.
The third neither mistreat others nor allow themselves to be intimidated; they move forward with purpose.
Be wise. Be one of them.
Be a good and fair friend.
Nothing from Partizan—everything for Partizan.
If you recognise this manifesto as your own, you are part of a black-and-white family that knows the greatest victory is to remain human.
OPNZPS
- You wear the Partizan crest, nosi ga časno i brani boje kluba tako što ćeš svakoga dana trenirati i biti bolji ne samo sportista, već i bolji čovek nego što si bio juče.
- Budi čovek, a ne broj.
- Treniraj da bi bio zdrav i srećan.
- Pobede i titule neće izostati ako budeš vredno radio, trenirao, razmišljao i naučio da donosiš dobre odluke u trenutku.
- Retki su ljudi koji žive samo od sporta.
- Zato živi za sport, uči se veštinama koje će ti pomoći u životu i uči!
- Nikad nemoj zapostaviti školu zbog sporta.
- Trening ćeš nadoknaditi, ali deca Partizana nisu i ne smeju biti ponavljači ili dvojkaši.
- Partizan možeš proslaviti na terenu, stazi, u bazenu ili u hali.
- Međutim, možeš ga proslaviti i kao akademski građanin, umetnica, kao majka, radnik, preduzetnik, vojnik, inženjerka, pronalazač, lekarka ili bilo šta budeš izabrao ili izabrala kao životni poziv.
- U Partizanu se nauči disciplini i istrajnosti.
- Do uspeha se ne dolazi lako i ne ide se prečicama.
- Tvoje slabosti su tvoj put.
- Radi na onome što ti teže ide.
- Radi na svojim slabostima kako sada u sportu, tako i sutra u životu.
- Igraješ za Partizan, a ne Partizan za tebe.
- Ako si talentovan i imaš perspektivnu karijeru, ne gledaj klub kao odskočnu dasku za neki „veći“.
- Upiši svoje ime u legende kluba, kako bi ime Partizan bilo veliko i zbog tebe.
- Pažljivo slušaj trenere i razgovaraj sa njima, ali zapamti – imaš dva uha, dva oka i samo jedna usta!
- Dakle, duplo više slušaj i gledaj nego što pričaš.
- The game is played until the end!
- Nikad se ne raduj ili ne odustaj do poslednjeg zvižduka sudije ili prolaska kroz cilj.
- Nisi pobedio pre tog zvižduka.
- Takođe, bori se uvek do kraja, jer nisi ni izgubio pre kraja utakmice koliko god da je vremena ostalo.
- Veruj u sebe i u čuda.
- You wear the Partizan crest!
- U pobedi se ne zanesi i glavu gore nakon poraza.
- Svako iskustvo je stanica na tvom putu sazrevanja kao sportiste i kao dobrog čoveka.
- Dostojanstveno slavi i još dostojanstvenije prihvati poraz.
- Ne traži izgovore i opravdanja za loš rezultat.
- Budi iskren prema sebi, pregrmi poraz i sledeći put ne ponavljaj istu grešku.
- Ne potcenjuj i ne omalovažavaj nijednog protivnika.
- Your team is a chain.
- Lanac je jak onoliko koliko je jaka njegova najslabija karika.
- Uvek pomozi drugaru ili drugarici iz tima kada im je teško i kada im ne ide.
- Ne gledaj koje su ljudi oko tebe vere, nacionalnosti i boje kože.
- Gledaj kako se odnose prema dobru i prema zlu koje si spoznao.
- Kada odeš iz Partizana, ne dozvoli nikad da Partizan ode iz tebe.
- Bori se u životu kao što si se borio na terenu.
- Disciplinovano, fer, sa uzvišenim ciljem pred sobom.
- Ti si dete Partizana!
- Nikada u školi ne napadaj slabije.
- Sa jačima radi kako god hoćeš, ali upamti – postoje najmanje tri vrste ljudi.
- Prvi su siledžije i oni često maltertiraju slabe i slabije od sebe.
- Drugi su slabiji i često maltretirani, ako možeš uvek im pomozi ili ih zaštiti.
- Treći su oni koje niko ne dira, niti oni ikoga diraju već idu napred sa ciljem pred sobom.
- Budi mudar i budi taj!
- Budi dobar i fer drug.
