Yugoslav Olympic Committee

Yugoslav Olympic Committee

The Yugoslav Olympic Committee (originally "Jugoslavenski olimpijski odbor", from 1927 "Jugoslovenski olimpijski komitet") was the non-profit organization representing Yugoslavian athletes in the International Olympic Committee. The YOC organized Yugoslavia's representatives at the Summer and Winter Olympic Games. It was established in Zagreb, Croatia in 1919 (recognized by the IOC in 1920), before moving to Belgrade in 1927. [http://www.okscg.org.yu/s101.htm] With the dissolution of Yugoslavia, several successor committees were formed.
