MARIUSZ WLAZŁY - the Hope of Polish volleyball



He was born on 4th of August 1983 in Wieluń. The first sport which he was training was swimming. One day, when he was 12, he went to his friend when he had a volleyball training. Mariusz started to play, just for fun, and that's how everything started. Firstly, he wasn't too good and he started to play better when he was 16-17 years old. His first volleyball team was WKS Wieluń - he started there as a junior, than as a senior and finally he played in the third league team. In 2001 he was playing in the second league SPS Somas Zduńska Wola. Mariusz was a really good player that time so he started playing in Polish junior's volleyball team. In SPS Mariusz was playing better than anyone thought even though he was only 19. In 2001 our's junior's representation started preparing to World's Junior's Championship. There, in Teheran, Mariusz showed that he didn't play volleyball accidentaly and mostly thanks to him the team won that great prize. In the season 2002-2003 Mariusz started to play in SKRA Bełchatów (where he's still playing). Few first months were a bit difficult time for Wlazły. He started to play in the first "6" in the and of the season and to this day he's playing in SKRA in the "6". I can say that Mariusz is a leader of his team. Paweł Zagumny said that if SKRA didn't have Mariusz there wouldn't be SKRA. I agree ;) In the season 2005-2006 Wlazły won the title of the best Polish volleyball player. In 2006 our team won the second place in the World Championship. After the whole tournament Wlazły (between Giba and Matej Kaziyski) was nominated for the best player prize. In 2008 he won the prize for the best atacker of Volleyball Champions League.
Mariusz Wlazły is absolutely one of the best volleyball players ever! He's got very strong serve and attack. I think that he's the Polish volleyball's hope ;)
