INFORMATION PORTAL OF THE MARSHAL'S OFFICE OF THE KUJAWSKO-POMORSKIE Region IN TORUŃ

Residents from across the region have joined the sporting countdown to the World Indoor Championships Kujawy Pomorze 26. Only 3 days remain until the most important athletics event of the season. Yesterday (March 16), we met for a general fitness training session in Białe Błota (Bydgoszcz County). Today (March 17), we are meeting for a family tournament in Trzebcz Szlachecki (Chełmno County).

“Thank you to all residents, athletes, coaches, schools, clubs, and local communities for actively participating in our relay. Every meeting, every symbolically passed baton, and every form of activity contributes to a cohesive story about a region that is responsible, active, and consciously takes care of the health of its residents. Thanks to your involvement, sport in our region shows its strength and diversity,” emphasizes Marshal Piotr Całbecki. “I already invite everyone to cheer together—both at the Kujawsko-Pomorska Arena Toruń and in the fan zone at Toruń’s New Town Market Square. Together, we are creating these championships!”

The “50 Relays of Kujawy and Pomorze” is a series of events organized over the last fifty days leading up to the World Indoor Championships Kujawy Pomorze 26. Each meeting was an opportunity for shared activity, integration, and promoting an active lifestyle. The initiative involved athletes from local clubs, amateurs, children and youth, as well as entire families and seniors. The relay baton, symbolically passed between 50 municipalities, will cover 6,100 kilometers. Photos from all stops, with a total of 5,000 participants, will be displayed on the opening day of the championships (March 20) along Królowej Jadwigi Street (from Empik to the fan zone).

Upcoming final relay stops:

• March 18 – speedway training in Grudziądz
• March 19 – run in Radziejów

The campaign will conclude with a championship parade in Toruń (March 20, 3:30 PM), featuring a march of children and sports club members (starting at the New Town Market Square and ending at the Old Town Market Square). At 4:00 PM, an opening concert will take place. Performers include Dawid Kwiatkowski, Ray Wilson, and Gromee. Admission is free.
