FAMILY AFFAIR
He and his father Grzegorz were both named as members of the Polish national team for the 2021 season. "We have been together in the national team before. We even competed together at a Nations Cup event in Athens, Greece. It was my second Nations Cup event. It's a shame that we were not together in the line-up when I made my debut in Linz, Austria, as that would have been really nice." (swiatkoni.pl, 25 Nov 2020)
EARLY DAYS
He quit the sport for a year when he was younger after breaking his arm in a riding accident. "I fell off the horse and my arm got caught in the stirrup. The horse pulled me behind him for a few metres. I broke my arm and for more than a year I stayed away from horses. However, all my school colleagues were enrolling in riding classes as it was the best activity in Boguslawice [in Poland]. So I thought that with my family tradition, I could not stay away from riding when everyone else was trying it." (equista.pl, 05 Feb 2021) |
