Arka Gdynia: Dawid Szwarga breaks his silence. In an interview with Weszło.com, the coach talks about the importance of defense in staying in Ekstraklasa. "The only newcomer who managed to stay in the league did not stand out in terms of attack quality, but had a great defense and a very effective goalkeeper. This is the foundation to stay in Ekstraklasa after promotion." - says Dawid Szwarga. The coach emphasizes that success in sports is related to trust in the work of coaches. "He emphasizes that surviving moments when poor results are achieved is crucial in this matter." - adds. Dawid Szwarga stated that the separation from Arka Gdynia would not have occurred if the club's authorities had shown that they believed in his way of working. "He also believes that this sports project was very important to him." - says the coach. This statement contradicts the idea that the reason for the coach's departure from Arka was solely due to serious family reasons. Dawid Szwarga left Gdynia on March 25, 2026. At that time, the yellow-blues had 30 points in the PKO Ekstraklasa table after 26 rounds. The difficult task of saving the team was taken over by coach Dariusz Banasik. Eventually, Arka collected 36 points after 34 rounds, finishing in last place in the standings and saying goodbye to the top league. In the 2026/2027 season, Arka Gdynia will play in the Betcliku 1 League. This period will begin with a new coach on the bench.
