Robert Kościecha won the Szczakiela in the category Best Coach/Manager of the 2024 PGE Ekstraliga Season. The coach of the Grudziądz team did not hide his joy over the win and at every turn thanked the fans for their votes. He shared his feelings in an interview with Toruń’s Radio GRA.
– This is a big distinction for me. It’s my first year working as a coach of a first team in the Ekstraliga club. I was always a junior coach – two years in Toruń, six in Grudziądz. The fans are the ones voting, so I’m very happy that the fans noticed my hard work and charisma, because I am a specific coach – said Robert Kościecha in an interview on Radio GRA.
The current coach of BAYERSYSTEM GKM Grudziądz started working at the club in 2018, where he was responsible for training speedway sports apprentices. In the 2024 PGE Ekstraliga season, he debuted as the head coach and, for the first time in history, advanced with the team to the play-off stage.
