Kacper Woryna (born 31 August 1996) is a Polish Speedway rider.

Biography

Born in Rybnik, Woryna comes from a racing family. His late grandfather Antoni Woryna rode for the Poole Pirates in the UK and came 3rd in the Speedway World Championship on 2 occasions, first in 1966 and later in 1970.

After a few years of riding in his native Poland with hometown club Rybnik, Woryna got his first break into British Speedway riding with the Coventry Bees, who beat off competition from his grandfathers former club the Poole Pirates to secure his signature. Woryna was recommended to the Bees management by club captain and Speedway Grand Prix rider Chris Harris, and was also given a big thumbs up by another of his new Coventry teammates, former world number 2 Krzysztof Kasprzak.[1]
