ANWIL, part of the ORLEN Group, will continue its title sponsorship of the Włocławek Basketball Club for the 2025/26 season. ORLEN will also remain the club’s strategic sponsor.
ANWIL’s longstanding support has significantly contributed to the team’s achievements, establishing it as a prominent representative of the city and region. The ANWIL logo will once again feature prominently on the players’ jerseys. This continued sponsorship strengthens the foundation for the club’s future growth and allows it to compete at top levels both nationally and internationally.
Despite the challenging conditions in the industry that ANWIL operates in, the decision to maintain the title sponsorship was made. In a move to streamline its sponsorship activities, ANWIL has withdrawn from other sponsorship ventures but believes that support for local basketball is an investment in the community’s identity. “We expect the team to fully commit and strive for the best possible results in the upcoming season, which our employees and fans have come to expect,” stated Konrad Tajduś, CEO of ANWIL.
The sponsorship agreement between ANWIL, ORLEN, and the Włocławek Basketball Club will remain in effect until the end of June 2026. ORLEN’s logo will be displayed on prime advertising locations at the Hala Mistrzów in Włocławek, including the court, backboards, and LED boards, as well as on the players’ sports uniforms. The consistent exposure of the ORLEN logo during televised and online broadcasts of national league games and European cup competitions will ensure that the ORLEN Group reaches thousands of basketball fans.
Lidia Kołucka, Executive Director of Sponsorship for ORLEN, emphasized the club’s importance to the local community, stating, “For nearly 30 years, ANWIL has been involved in its development. Our goal is to strengthen this collaboration and contribute significantly to the team’s success in the upcoming season, to the delight of its many fans, including numerous ANWIL employees.”
The 2025/26 season marks a special occasion as it celebrates three decades of collaboration. This partnership has been pivotal in achieving the club’s most significant victories. Łukasz Pszczółkowski, President of the Włocławek Basketball Club, expressed gratitude for ANWIL’s ongoing belief in the value of basketball sponsorship, stating, “Sponsoring basketball is more than a business project; it encompasses people, relationships, history, and the future.”
Historically, Anwil Włocławek has won the national championship three times, claimed the runner-up position eight times, and secured bronze medals four times. The club has also triumphed in the Polish Cup four times and in the Polish Supercup three times. In the 2024/25 season, the team narrowly missed out on a podium finish in the ORLEN Basket League, losing a closely contested playoff match for third place against Trefl Sopot.
