Katarzyna Wenerska (born 9 March 1993[1] in Świecie)[2] is a Polish volleyball player, representing her country as a setter.

Career

She is a product of Joker Świecie. With this club, she won a bronze medal at the 2005 Polish Mini Volleyball Championships (three-player teams) and a gold medal at the 2006 Polish Mini Volleyball Championships (four-player teams). Since 2008, she has been playing in the newly formed senior team of Joker, achieving promotion to the II league in 2009 and to the I league (second-tier competition) in 2014. In the 2017/2018 season, she played for Pałac Bydgoszcz, competing in the top-tier competition.[1] In 2018, she returned to Joker and won the I league with them in the 2018/2019 season. The team from Świecie, however, opted out of the play-off for promotion to the top tier.

In the 2019/2020 season, she won the I league again with Joker, and in the 2020/2021 season, she played with the Świecie team in the Tauron Liga[1] (the team finished in 11th place). During the league season, she was named MVP of a match once (in January 2021 against Energa MKS Kalisz).[3]

Since July 2021, she has been a player for KS DevelopRes Rzeszów.[4] With this club, she won the Polish SuperCup in 2021.[5]

In April 2021, she was called up to the extended Polish senior national team.[6] In early June 2021, she was called up for the Nations League matches, replacing the injured Marta Krajewska.[7] She made her national team debut in the Nations League on 12 June 2021 in a match against Brazil[8] (the team finished in 11th place). She also participated in the European Championship that year[9] (Poland finished in 5th place).
