Croatia SC loses club legend too early

Croatia SC member since the early 70's - former player, former President, former youth coach and until fairly recently Croatia SC A manager - Zarko Perko, passed away on Dec 24, 2022 at the age of 67. He was a leader in the community with a wonderful sense of humour who was very well respected by the VMSL. He will be dearly missed in the soccer community.
