On the court set up near the Grand Hotel, Snow Volleyball was officially presented by former volleyball national team members, and now officials at the helm of the Volleyball Federation of Serbia, Djula Mester and Ivan Knežević. Mester is a member of the golden generation that claimed Olympic and European gold for Yugoslavia in 2000 and 2001, respectively.
