Serbia issued 2022 one stamp and one miniature sheet for the 100th Anniversary of Red Star Sports Association.
The stamp shows us a man's quadruple scull rowing, without coxswain.

The description given by the issued:
The Belgrade Rowing Club was founded on June 6, 1922, and on March 4, 1945, it became one of the founders of the Red Star Sports Association and has been called the Rowing Club Red Star ever since. Црвена звезда.
The Club building, one of the most beautiful buildings of this type, built in 1935, was designed by the Russian architect Valery Stashevsky, in the then wild surroundings of Ada Ciganlija. The members of the Club were many prominent Belgraders, including Andra Žeželj, Ivo Andrić, Miloš Crnjanski. The Club has been under the auspices of the Karađorđević royal family from June 8, 1922, until today. As of 2018, the Club has been organizing the Prince Stefan regatta, dedicated to Prince Stefan Karađorđević.
It is estimated that over 20,000 people rowed for the Club, of which 3,500 represented the Club in the national teams of the Kingdom of SCS, FNRY, SFRY, FR Yugoslavia, and the Republic of Serbia, at European and world championships and the Olympic Games.
