Biography
Started: He took up wheelchair fencing at age nine. (paralympic.org.pl, 01 Jan 2017)
Reason: "When I was nine, I wanted to go to a camp, but it was only possible as a member of a club, as I couldn't go to a public camp. The club was where I was introduced to fencing. Thanks to coach Krzysztof Balcerzak, I caught the bug. First it was a part of my rehabilitation and was fun, later it became my hobby. In 2012 I won my first team medal at an international event in Warsaw. It was a crucial moment, as I decided to make it my life." (paralympic.org.pl, 01 Jan 2017)
