Blažo Lisičić (born 22 August 1972) is a Montenegrin former handball player.[1]

Club career

Born in Titograd, Lisičić was signed by Proleter Zrenjanin as a teenager. He would become a member of the team that won two Yugoslav Championship titles and reached the European Cup final in the 1990–91 season. Between 1993 and 1996, Lisičić played for Belgrade arch-rivals Crvena zvezda and Partizan.

In 1996, Lisičić moved abroad to Spain and signed with Pozoblanco. He spent one season with the Liga ASOBAL club, but failed to help them avoid relegation. From 1997 to 2002, Lisičić played for three teams in Germany, namely TV Niederwürzbach, HSG Dutenhofen/Münchholzhausen, and GWD Minden.

Later on, Lisičić would also spend some time in Italy (Conversano and Casarano), Qatar (Al Sadd), and Croatia (Zagreb).[2] He lastly played for Lovćen in his native Montenegro, adding two more trophies to his collection, before retiring.

International career

At international level, Lisičić competed for FR Yugoslavia in five major tournaments between 1996 and 2003, winning three bronze medals.[3]

After the split of Serbia and Montenegro, Lisičić represented Montenegro, helping the nation qualify for the 2008 European Championship.
