Wójtowicz was one of the biggest names in Polish volleyball, a former Olympic and world champion.
He was a key player for Poland’s national men’s volleyball team when it won the world championship in Mexico in 1974 and the Olympic gold at Montreal in 1976.
He passed away on Monday after losing a long battle against cancer, the Polish Volleyball Federation (PZPS) said.
