“Become a Green Ambassador” Quiz Held on the Prokurative

As part of the 2026 International Finals of the Plazma Youth Sports Games, the first edition of the Zero Waste quiz “Become a Green Ambassador” was held on the Prokurative in Split. Taking part were Youth Sports Games teams from Croatia, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Slovenia and North Macedonia who had previously participated in “Zero Waste – Be Part of the Game – Let’s Protect Our Planet” events in their home countries.

As Europe’s largest amateur sporting event, whose mission is to promote healthy lifestyles through sport and spending time together, the Plazma Youth Sports Games recognized an opportunity to use their platform to contribute to sustainable development. Through this project, the Games promote sustainable environmental practices among children, young people and local communities, and work to improve them.

“Zero Waste” educates children and young people in a unique and creative way, through play and sport. The programme combines interactive learning with a sports competition on an educational obstacle course.

Through this campaign, Coca-Cola aims to make as positive an impact on the environment as possible and to offer solutions to packaging-related challenges, in line with its long-term World Without Waste initiative.

The importance of projects like this was best explained by the quiz’s opening guest, Daniel Gros, founder of GPF Global, a leading international business platform for sustainability.

He then handed over to Dean Kotiga, Croatia’s celebrated quiz champion, who hosted a live quiz with three gripping rounds of questions on sustainability, ecology, recycling and fun facts about the Plazma Youth Sports Games.

North Macedonia was represented by Ognjen Angelovski, Andrej Gjorgijevski, Angela Bogoevska and Josipa Stojanoska. Lucija Kuzman, Lucija Galić, Kenan Mahmutović and Vukašin Đurić competed for Bosnia and Herzegovina, while Tin Biti, Dominik Pavlović, Ana Kuran and Petra Vidić played for Croatia. The Serbian team consisted of Mila Petrović, Staša Zorić, Pavle Kostić and Luka Matić, and Slovenia was represented by Rafael Beletić, Kaja Drljača, Aleksandar Jovanović and Tina Purkat.

All the teams showed outstanding knowledge and quick thinking, and after a series of tense answers and a fastest-finger round, the team from Slovenia came out on top.

All participating teams received special certificates and the title of Green Ambassadors, presented by Bogdan Chirita, Franchise Operations Director at The Coca-Cola Company; Dimitrios Rompis, General Manager of Coca-Cola HBC Adria; Gjorgji Hristov, General Manager at The Coca-Cola Company; Saša Marković, General Manager of Coca-Cola HBC Serbia and Montenegro; and Ognjen Lazić, General Manager of Coca-Cola HBC – Pivara Skopje.
