career

Dejworek played for the Polish clubs Resovia Rzeszów and Zagłębie Sosnowiec and the Polish national team. He was a player in the German second division team TG Hanau before moving to the German Bundesliga team USC Bayreuth for the 1981/82 season. In January 1982, the 1.97-meter-tall winger took over the position of player-coach in Bayreuth and led the team to fifth place in the Bundesliga, which was the best result of the season in the club's history. During the 1982/83 season Dejworek was again exclusively active as a player for Bayreuth, before the start of the championship round he was on leave due to differences of opinion with coach Tom Schneeman .

In 1988 Dejworek rose as a player with SSV Ulm in the Bundesliga. He switched to SV Oberelchingen as a player- coach and led the team to promotion to the Oberliga in 1989 and to the regional league a year later. He worked for VfL Marburg , in the spring of 1994 he briefly coached the first division club SG Braunschweig , but the split came back after the first game was lost under his direction.

After the end of his competitive sports career, Dejworek started his main job as a qualified sports teacher at the paraplegic center in Ulm.

He remained loyal to basketball: he was a youth and men's coach at BG Illertal for a long time. In 2015 Dejworek became the coach of SV Böblingen. He was also heavily involved in wheelchair basketball and was awarded the silver badge of honor by the German Wheelchair Sports Association in May 2017.

His sons Philip , Michael and Nils also became competitive basketball players.
