On February 18-19, 2023, the 67th PZLA Polish Indoor Championships will take place in the Arena Toruń. The city will host nearly half a thousand athletes from over 110 clubs from all over the country.
The starting lists are full of world-class stars. Among them are e.g. Ewa Swoboda, Piotr Lisek or Natalia Kaczmarek, who is the first Polish woman to cover 400 meters indoors in less than 51 seconds, achieving a national record of 50.90 in France.

“Toruń is the city of Copernicus, and Copernicus is associated with stars. And there will be plenty of them on Saturday and Sunday in Arena Toruń. The leading athletes from the world will reign on the treadmill, hills and viewports. Olympic medalists who stood on the podiums of the European and world championships will be present. It is a real sporting feast for the fans. The fact that the competition will be the last chance for Polish athletes to obtain indicators for the European Indoor Championships, which will be held on March 2-5 in Istanbul is another advantage for the fans.”,
said Sebastian Chmara, Vice-President of the Polish Athletics Association.

“By building the athletics arena, we made a kind of Copernican revolution in this discipline. Thanks to this, sports stars can come to our city and compete in a modern hall. I am glad that they will shine again in Toruń.”,
said Zbigniew Fiderewicz, Vice-President of Toruń.
Together with PZLA, the Polish Championships are organized by the Toruń Municipal Athletic Club.
