The 2021–2022 season saw Pogoń Tczew promoted from the I liga into the Ekstraliga for the first time in their history.[3] By the winter break of the 2022–2023 season, Pogoń Tczew’s debut in the Ekstraliga, the team were in the relegation zone,[4] however they went on to finish the season in ninth position in the table.[5] The following season the team finished one place higher, sealing Medyk Konin’s relegation in their final match.[6]
