Men’s national team honored in the Polish Olympic Committee
The last place granted the team promotion to the forthcoming next year’s Olympic Games in London.
The statuette has been taken by coach Andrea Anastasi and manager of the national team Huber Tomaszewski.
On Monday, the 9th of January, the headquarters of the Polish Olympic Committee were a place of meeting of the whole Polish Olympic Family.
Many well-known champions, olympic medalists and presidents of particular sport federations arrived at the ceremony.
Andrzej Kraśnicki, President of the Polish Olympic Committee gave speech. He shortly summed up sport achievements of the past year (including 11 medals of the World Championships and 23 medals of the European Championships in Olympic competitions).
A. Kraśnicki stressed that in comparison to the previous ‘pre-olympic’ years (2003 and 2007) in 2011 the total result was little worse.
Whereas the olympic games performances (in Athens and Beijing) resulted in ten medals. Maybe this time we will also manager to continue that tendency…
