ABOUT ME

My name is Sebastian Truszczyński, I am 15 years old and I currently train at the TC Froburg Trimbach club, my current tennis coach and teacher is Bartolome Szkalercki, and my fitness coach is Pascal Buholzer. My connection with tennis began when I was 3 years old, when I first picked up one of my Dad's rackets. From then on, I accompanied my dad to all his table tennis training sessions. I started playing at the age of 6, at that age I had my first sparring. Thanks to him, I realized that this is what I want to do.

My dad not only sparked my interest in tennis but was also a huge inspiration to me. He was an amazing table tennis player who achieved a lot in his life. Watching him excel in this sport made me want to follow in his footsteps, but I ended up on the tennis court.

Also get to know my father better - Andrzej Truszczyński.

Currently, I'm still playing, taking part in tournaments and doing quite well. Winning against people who are better than me motivates me to train even harder and persevere in what I believe in.

I know that everything depends on me, so in the next 6 years I would like to be among the top 100 best tennis players in the world. That's my goal!

Since February 2023, I have been playing in ITF World Tennis Tour Juniors tournaments, where I achieved my first successes by winning against experienced players ranked 1100 in the world ranking.

Thanks to this, I advanced to the main tournament, where, after winning matches against older players in Tunisia and Guadeloupe, I gained my first points in the world tennis ranking.

In Martinique in March 2023 I reached semi-final ITF U18 main tournament and achieved my greatest success so far.

In 2020, before the pandemic, I won a bronze medal at the Swiss Championships in the U14 category!

Since 2018, alongside coach Bartłomiej Szkalercki I train at one of the leading clubs in Switzerland, Tennis Club Trimbach, and I regularly take part in international tournaments.

At Tennis Europe in Gdańsk, in doubles with Grzegorz Zemba I won first place in the U12 category, and in the individual game at the same tournament I reached 1/4 finals.

The first tournament I took part in took place in Gliwice in 2016. As an 8-year-old, I achieved success playing with larger balls and on a smaller court. Subsequent children's tournaments in which I took part, both in Poland and Switzerland, gave me podium places. Back then, my coach was Carlos Kehl. Tedious exercises allowed me to overcome barriers and new opponents on the courts.

The breakthrough moment when I realized that I wanted to play tennis as a sport was my first sparring in Turkey. I was 6 years old then and playing on the court was fun, but already then I felt that tennis triggered a lot of positive emotions in me.

My physical activity related to tennis began when I was 3 years old and for the first time I picked up one of my Dad's rackets, of which there were plenty at home. Since then, I accompanied my dad to table tennis training, running around the table with a racket in my hand.
