We are delighted to announce that starting from the 2025/2026 season, Nautiqus has become the title sponsor of the women’s team competing in the First League under the banner of the Gortat Academy Gdańsk (formerly Sportowa Politechnika). This is the next step in our two-year partnership with the club, which has consistently focused on developing young talent and creating a professional environment for athletes.

“Supporting ambitious people is part of our DNA – in freight forwarding, in our company, and beyond. That’s why we’re proud to continue this sporting journey with the Gortat Academy, this time as the title sponsor of the Women’s First League team. Sport teaches determination, teamwork, and humility – exactly the values we cherish at Nautiqus,” says Dominik Popiel, CEO of Nautiqus.

2024/2025 Season – A String of Successes and New Perspectives
The past season was exceptionally successful for the Gortat Academy Gdańsk teams. In the Women’s First League, the team advanced to the play-offs from fourth place, and many young players were given the opportunity to play – later becoming leaders of their youth teams in national competitions.

Other achievements of the season:
• U17 – Polish Youth Cup: 3rd place
• U17 – Polish Youth Championships: 1st place
• U19 – Polish Youth Cup: 3rd place
• U19 – Polish Youth Championships: 5th place
• U15 – Polish Youth Championships: 5th place
• 3×3 U17 – Polish Championships (Łowicz): 2nd place

Goals for the 2025/2026 Season
The team enters the new season with a clear goal – to fight for a medal position. And with the current roster, that’s entirely realistic. The squad has been strengthened by Alicja Żytkowska, Sylwia Bujniak, Julia Koryzna, Oliwia Janicka, and Natalia Ławicka – players with great potential who can surprise both opponents and fans.

“With this strengthened lineup, we realistically aim for a TOP 3 finish. The girls show incredible commitment in training – this gives us hope that this season could be a breakthrough,” says Adam Muller, head coach of the Women’s First League team.

Sport and Business – A Shared Path to Success
The cooperation with the Gortat Academy Gdańsk is not just sponsorship – it’s a partnership that shows how sport and business can work together to build something greater than the sum of its parts. It is also an investment in the local community, youth, and the development of values such as teamwork, perseverance, and ambition.

The new season also brings changes off the court. The club has undergone rebranding and now operates under the name Gortat Academy Gdańsk, with a new website: www.akademiagortatagdansk.pl

“Another year of support from Nautiqus is strong confirmation that our work matters. It’s not just financial backing – it’s also a sign of trust and recognition for the efforts of our players, who push beyond their limits every single day. I believe we can achieve even more together,” comments Paweł Krawczyk, President of the Gortat Academy Gdańsk.
