Partnership with Górna

In the 1986–87 season, Górna/Dostatni were sent to their first senior ISU Championships – they placed 14th at the 1987 Europeans in Sarajevo, Yugoslavia, and 15th at the 1987 Worlds in Cincinnati, United States.

1987–88 was their final season together. After placing 12th at the 1988 European Championships in Prague, Czechoslovakia, Górna/Dostatni represented Poland at the 1988 Winter Olympics in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, where they placed 17th.^[3] Their partnership came to an end following the 1987 World Championships in Budapest, Hungary, where they also ranked 17th.

Partnership with Grajcar

Grajcar/Dostatni teamed up four months before the Polish Championships in the 1988–89 season.^[4] After winning the Polish national title, they were sent to the 1989 European Championships in Birmingham, England, where they finished ninth, and the 1989 World Championships in Paris, France, where they ranked 16th. The duo trained two hours a day at Gdańsk's Oliwia rink, which had frequent technical failures, and other rinks.^[4]

The following season, Grajcar/Dostatni repeated as national champions. They placed tenth at the 1990 European Championships in Leningrad, Soviet Union, and 13th at the 1990 World Championships in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada.

In the 1990–91 season, Grajcar/Dostatni won bronze at the 1990 Skate Canada International and ranked fifth at the 1990 Skate America. Their final event was the 1991 World Championships in Munich, Germany, where they finished 13th. Lacking funds for a good choreographer, they decided to retire from competition.^[1]
