Timeline
In May 2014, she became the patron of the Private Primary School and Kindergarder "Olympijczyk" in Gdańsk.
She died on September 2, 2014 in her hometown at the age of 92.
Rakoczy was inducted into the International Gymnastics Hall of Fame in 2004.
In 1956, Rakoczy was a part of the Polish team at the 1956 Summer Olympic Games in Melbourne, alongside the 1959 European all-around champion Natalia Kot. Poland won a bronze medal in the team portable apparatus event, tying with the USSR team and finished fourth in the all-around team final behind USSR, Hungary and Romania. Individually, she finished 8th in the all-around, 7th on vault, 5th on the uneven bars, 16th on the balance beam and 14th on the floor exercise.
In 1954, she won the all-around and vault bronze medals at the World Championships in Rome. As of right now, she is still the most decorated Polish gymnast, male or female, in the history of the sport.
She later competed at the 1952 Summer Olympic Games in Helsinki. Disappointing performance in the qualifications, particularly on the uneven bars, kept her well out of the higher-finishing individuals in the all-around, where she came in 43rd place. She also failed to make any event finals, while the Polish team placed 8th. Her poor performances were caused by wrist injuries, as well as the stress she was dealing with due to predatory behaviour from the chef of the Polish Olympic team Apolinary Minecki. The assault that took place was stopped by the Polish Olympic swimmer and the European silver medalist Marek Petrusewicz.
In 1950, she competed at the 1950 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships in Basel and became the first and so far the only Polish gymnast ever to win the all-around title. She also took gold medals on vault, balance beam and floor exercise, as well as bronze on the uneven bars.
Her fast-growing career was interrupted by the occupation of Poland in the years of 1939-1945. Throughout the years, Rakoczy won 26 national titles
She trained at Sokół Kraków (1934–1939 and 1945–1946), Korona Kraków (1946–1954) and Wawel Kraków (1954–1975); coached by Celek Kozioł, Tadeusz Daniel and Urszula Stępińska.
