Tadeusz "Ralf" Adamowski (November 19, 1901 – August 22, 1994) was a Polish-American ice hockey player who competed in the 1928 Winter Olympics, and a supporter and popularizer of the sport in early twentieth century Poland.

[2] He was the brother of Helenka Adamowska Pantaleoni, film and stage actress and humanitarian associated with the founding of UNICEF.

[3][4] Adamowski was born in Lausanne, Switzerland when his parents, Polish immigrants to the United States, had traveled there so that his mother could avoid being in the spotlight in her advanced pregnancy condition.

His family resided in Brookline, Massachusetts, and were actively engaged in the music world in Boston but also traveled frequently to Europe.

Between 1926 and 1931 he was the center of the Polish national team and considered one of the most technically skilled hockey players in Europe.

As a coach, he popularized Canadian hockey methods and strategy which stressed teamwork over individual players.
