Polish student-athletes began competing in various European championships, including the European University Games in Tirana and the European Boxing Championships in Sofia. In Tirana, Polish karate competitors secured both bronze and silver medals.

In Sofia, the 19-member Polish national boxing team arrived to face a challenging field, which coach Tomasz Dylak noted would be difficult due to the return of Russian boxers to international competition. Following the initial arrival, several Polish boxers advanced to the quarterfinals. Nikolas Pawlik secured a victory in the under 55 kg category, while Natalia Kuczewska and Kinga Krówka also won their respective matches to reach the quarterfinal stages.
