history

Polonia Bytom's ice hockey division was established in 1946. The team was one of the strongest Ekstraliga teams, especially in the mid-1980s and early 1990s , when Polonia won the Polish championship title six times within eight years . Polonia Bytom was also able to convince at European level and reached the final tournament in the European Ice Hockey Cup in the 1984/85 season , but lost in this in all four games. In the following period, Polonia Bytom could no longer build on these successes and rose in the 2008/09 season in the second-class I league . In 2013 they were promoted to the top Polish league, from which they were relegated in 2019.
