Streszczenie

On 12-14 October 2017, in the capital of Lower Silesia, the XXXII International Scientific Congress of the Polish Society of Sports Medicine took place. It was also an opportunity to celebrate the 80th anniversary of sports medicine in Poland under the slogan “Challenges for the future”. Historical beginnings of the formalized organization of sports doctors in Poland date back to 10 February 1937, when the First Congress of Polish Sports Doctors took place, during which the organization was established under the name of the Association of Sports Doctors (Stowarzyszenie Lekarzy Sportowych).  In 1961, at the 9th Congress of the Association of Sports Doctors, the name was changed to the Polish Society of Sports Medicine (Polskie Towarzystwo Medycyny Sportowej), so that it could be joined by doctors of other specialties, dealing with the field of science concerning physical culture and specialists of other disciplines of knowledge dealing with sport and physical activity.
