The Klemens Maciaszczyk Memorial 2026 in Rogowo, played on 29 and 30 August, was the 59th edition of a tournament the Polish Field Hockey Association describes as the oldest regularly held team sports tournament in Poland. Five teams took part, including one from Germany, and HKS Siemianowiczanka won. For Field Hockey Zone it was a debut: our first stand beside the pitch, the first children\u2019s contests on our own 6 \u00d7 9 m pitch, an autograph session and a stick draw. Below is a report from both days, the full results and what the photos from Rogowo show about the players\u2019 kit, from stick to goalkeeper\u2019s helmet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Match results and the final standings are taken from the report of the Polish Field Hockey Association. We took the photos in this post ourselves during the tournament; they show kit and atmosphere, with no players\u2019 names and no children\u2019s faces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What the Klemens Maciaszczyk Memorial is<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The tournament is organised by Ludowy Klub Sportowy Rogowo, founded in 1947 by Klemens Maciaszczyk. According to PZHT, the only older event in Poland is the Janusz Kusoci\u0144ski athletics meeting; among team sports tournaments the Memorial is the oldest. The 2026 edition was the 59th and, as the association reports, was co-financed by the Kujawsko-Pomorskie Voivodeship. Rogowo lies in the Pa\u0142uki region, in \u017bnin county, and hockey is the number one sport here: LKS Rogowo plays in the national competitions we write about in the post on hockey in Poland, its clubs and leagues<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The tournament\u2019s patron was born on 18 November 1922 in Gniezno. In 1947 he settled in Rogowo and in the same year founded the club, of which he was the long-serving president and coach. From 1952 he was active in hockey\u2019s governing bodies, including the PZHT Audit Committee, and from 1958 he was an umpire. He himself played hockey and table tennis. Thanks to him LKS Rogowo, as the only club with a rural base in the first division, gained national standing and international contacts. Klemens Maciaszczyk died on 13 August 1967. His brother, Narcyz Maciaszczyk, represented Poland twice at the Olympic Games, as we wrote in our preview of the tournament<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who played and how it went<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The first day opened with Enea AZS AWF Pozna\u0144 against Braunschweiger THC, won by the Pozna\u0144 side 2:1. In the second match HKS Siemianowiczanka beat HK Pomorzanin Toru\u0144 5:2, then the hosts beat AZS AWF 2:1 and had maximum points after their first match. The fourth match was a 4:1 win for Braunschweiger THC over Pomorzanin. The day closed with Siemianowiczanka against Rogowo, which ended 10:1, the biggest score of the whole tournament. The five Saturday matches produced 29 goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sunday: a draw for the hosts and a clean sweep for Siemianowiczanka<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Sunday began with AZS AWF against Pomorzanin, won by the Toru\u0144 side 3:1. In the meeting of Saturday\u2019s two best-scoring teams, Siemianowiczanka beat Braunschweiger THC 2:1 and so secured first place before the final round. LKS Rogowo drew 2:2 with Pomorzanin, Siemianowiczanka beat AZS AWF 5:1, and to finish Braunschweiger THC beat the hosts 6:1. The Sunday matches produced 24 goals, 53 in the whole tournament. Pomorzanin, which started with two defeats, finished third after its win over AZS AWF and the draw with Rogowo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Field Hockey Zone stand: a debut beside the pitch<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The online shop launched on the Friday before the tournament, and for both days of the Memorial a blue tent with fieldhockeyzone.com written on it stood beside the LKS Rogowo pitch. Sticks hung on the grid racks: the photos show, among others, purple, green and orange Grays models and black Ritual sticks, with Naked accessories and balls on the table. Next to the tent lay our own 6 \u00d7 9 m pitch with an artificial surface, a goal and cones, where the contests ran for two days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The idea was simple: a stick has to be held in the hand. At the rack you could compare lengths, check the bow and feel the difference between a stick with a low and a high carbon content, then ask about choosing one for age, height and style of play. We apply the same rule after the tournament in our showroom in \u017berniki<\/a>, where by appointment you can compare several models side by side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Children\u2019s contests on the 6 \u00d7 9 pitch<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For both days the pitch beside the tent was the place for the children\u2019s contests. The stand\u2019s programme provided for four age categories, 5\u20137, 8\u201310, 11\u201313 and 14 and over, so that a ten-year-old did not compete against a sixteen-year-old, and six events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
