During Lechia's league winning campaign Słabik made a total of 7 appearances. After Lechia's promotion to the II liga Słabik staked a claim for the starting position, being the number 1 goalkeeper for the next three seasons, finding himself as the second choice goalkeeper the two seasons after that. Słabik has the recognition of scoring two goals during the 1974–75 season, scoring penalties against Warta Poznań and Olimpia Poznań.[3] In total Słabik made a total of 131 appearances and scored 2 goals over seven seasons with Lechia.
