Problem
Ekstraklasa earns record revenue (PLN 1.59 billion in the 2025/26 season), PZPN had almost PLN 500 million of revenue, and the national team will not play at the 2026 World Cup. In many clubs children are coached by volunteers, and Ministry of Sport programmes worth about PLN 737 million have no shared indicators.
Proposal
Six pillars: a Polish Game Model, coaching as a profession (5,000 paid coaches for children), talent and infrastructure (Orlik 3.0, 16 centres, about 300 bases), leagues and clubs (academy audit in the licence), a modern PZPN, and fans, women and schools.
Cost
About PLN 450 million a year at full scale, i.e. about PLN 12 per resident. More than PLN 100 million of this is programmes that already run. The state covers 40%, the rest: PZPN, local governments, clubs and sponsors.
Pilot
April–December 2027: 3 voivodeships, 100 Orlik community pitches, about 500 coaches, about 15,000 children, about PLN 60 million. Clear conditions for stopping and for expanding.
What we do not propose
A law on PZPN or a state administrator in the federation, taking sporting decisions away from the federation, or overnight changes. Every change to the statute goes through the General Assembly.
Next steps
The proposal was sent to the Ministry of Sport (MSiT), the Chancellery of the Prime Minister (KPRM) and PZPN on 25.10.2026. We are looking for named expert reviews and waiting for the institutions’ reply.
