Once again the Polish armwrestling team has demonstrated how important they are in Europe. This time, to the Czech championship "Golem's Hand", went only two competitors: Mariusz Podgorski from Warsaw, in the 70 kg class, and Rafal Wozny from Walbrzych, in the 80 kg class. Both men swept all that was to take, they won two gold medals, which despite such a small staff, gave them the third place in the team classification.
This year's competitions took place on the 5th February in Brno. Right here in the Czech Republic competitors from eight European countries: Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Germany, Belgium, Greece, Georgia, and of course Poland met. Over 100 athlets took the fight in 7 weight classes. The competition was great, competitors who came have been the European leaders for years, though: Radoslav Dobrovice, Peter Kovacs and Snezana Babayev. However our athletes have left their colleagues no illusions, and once again proved that, in their weight classes they are simply the best.

"Were was no more to gain! Four gold medals for the two representatives of Poland, it is a proof of the extremely high level of our armrestlingu. Professions at a high level, the leading European rivals, although with no chance in the fight with us - Poles"- said after Mariusz Podgorski afetr the competitions.
It is a pity that to the Czech championship went only two Poles. If there were maybe two more, then who knows, maybe we would be in first place in the team classification. It remains to congratulate our great players and wish them further success in future competitions.
