Today, Ljubljana boasts numerous football clubs, football schools and modern sports facilities, but in the past matches were played on meadows, improvised pitches and even on a former racecourse. The history of football in the capital is rich, dynamic and full of stories about the enthusiasm of young players, the impact of political change, and the rise and fall of many clubs. All of this is vividly presented in the exhibition <em data-start=\"1915\" data-end=\"1992\">The First Matches, the First Clubs: The Beginnings of Football in Ljubljana<\/em>, prepared by Dr Ale\u0161 \u0160afari\u010d, Head of the Museum of Sport, and displayed on panels in front of the entrance to the Sto\u017eice Sports Centre.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"2137\" data-end=\"2163\">Temporary Exhibition<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"2164\" data-end=\"2291\"><strong data-start=\"2164\" data-end=\"2205\">Stanko Bloudek: Life, Work and Legacy<\/strong><br data-start=\"2205\" data-end=\"2208\" \/>The exhibition is on display at the Ilirija Sports Centre from 10.00 am to 8.00 pm.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1294 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/muzejsporta.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/image1.jpg\" alt=\"Stanko Bloudek in kopali\u0161\u010de Ilirija\" width=\"2476\" height=\"1208\" srcset=\"https:\/\/muzejsporta.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/image1.jpg 2476w, https:\/\/muzejsporta.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/image1-300x146.jpg 300w, https:\/\/muzejsporta.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/image1-1024x500.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/muzejsporta.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/image1-768x375.jpg 768w, https:\/\/muzejsporta.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/image1-1800x878.jpg 1800w, https:\/\/muzejsporta.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/image1-600x293.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2476px) 100vw, 2476px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Stanko Bloudek and Swiming center IlirijaWithout the visionary work and financial investment of Stanko Bloudek in 1929, the Ilirija swimming pool would never have opened.
