  10. Sum Up. • My presentation only partly describes sport in Poland as I rather focused my attention to the most popular ones. In conclusion I think that the condition of Polish sport, although not too impressive, is not so bad. It is mainly connected with poor amounts of money which spent by our state differently,could completely change the situation for better.
