    about Mirko Sandic
    Born in Belgrade, Yugoslavia on May 9, 1942, Mirko Sandic played water polo during the years when his country was a dominant international team. Sandic was considered to be the most prominent player contributing to his country’s 1968 Olympic gold medal performance of Mexico City and the 1964 Olympic silver medal of Tokyo. He also played on the 1960 Rome Olympic Team (fourth) and the 1972 Munich Olympic Team (fifth). All total, he played in 235 games for the National Team of Yugoslavia during a career that lasted from 1958 to 1974.
    As a member of this club until his retirement in 1974, Mirko played in over 1000 games and won 11 Yugoslav National Championships, 7 Yugoslav Cups, 5 European Club Championships and several Friendship Tournaments.
    Besides his Olympic Games participation as a member of the National Team, Sandic won two European Championship bronze medals in Utrecht (1966) and Barcelona (1970), two Mediterranean Games gold medals in Tunisia (1967) and Izmir (1971) (silver in Naples, 1963), three Trofeo Jadran gold medals in Dubrovnik (1963), Split (1967) and Sibenik (1971) and three Trofeo Italia/Hungaria silver medals in Moscow (1961) and Budapest (1965, 1969). As the World Championships and FINA Cups were not in existence during Sandic's playing days, Trofeo Jardan and Trofeo Italia/Hungaria were considered comparable.
    He was a team player who served as flag bearer for his country in the 1972 Olympics. He was both feared and respected by every player with whom he came into contact.
