History
Speedway in Rybnik has existed since 1930. In 1964 the multi-sports club ROW Rybnik was formed as a result of a merger between two local clubs RKS "Górnik" Rybnik and KS "Górnik" Chwałowice. Since then the club has undergone various changes, including Rybnicki Klub Motorowy (Rybnik's Motorcycle Club) in 1994, then reverted to its historical "ROW" prefix in 2009 as RKM ROW Rybnik, then changed the name to ROW Rybnik Sp. z.o.o. in 2012 and finally to ŻKS ROW Rybnik in 2013. The team is historically one of the best ever - they have been runners-up in the Polish Championship 8 times and won the title 12 times, but the last title was in 1972.
