Piotr Mowlik (born 21 April 1951 in Rybnik) is a retired Polish football goalkeeper.

In 1965, Mowlik began as an apprentice with LZS Orzepowice. In 1966, he signed as a professional with ROW Rybnik where he played until 1970. That year, he also briefly played for Unia Racibórz. In 1971, he joined Legia Warsaw where he played 131 games. He then transferred to Lech Poznań in 1977. In 1983, he moved to the United States where he joined the Pittsburgh Spirit of the Major Indoor Soccer League. He spent the 1985-1986 season behind starter David Brcic, seeing time in only one game. On 1 March 1986, the Spirit sold his contract to the Tacoma Stars and he played his first game in Tacoma four days later.[1]

He played for the Polish national team (21 matches) and was a participant at the 1982 FIFA World Cup, where Poland won the bronze medal, and also at the 1976 Summer Olympics, where Poland won the silver medal.
