Let’s start with the newcomers. A 25-year-old Slovakian setter Filip Palgut arrived from VK Euro Sitex Příbram, a team that lost playoff quarterfinals exactly to České Budějovice.

Filip Křesťan, a 29-year-old opposite and also MVP of the last season in Czech League while wearing the jersey of Kladno volejbal cz became second reinforcement so far in České Budějovice. He averaged 1.8 aces per game last season.

As for departures, the situation is like this: České Budějovice captain and also a setter Filip Habr, who took three national titles in previous seven seasons with the club, will continue his career abroad.

His backup last season, Czech Junior NT member Kristián Červinka, will also no longer wear the jersey of České Budějovice.

Chilean National Team captain Sebastián Gevert did not persuade the management of Czech champions to extend the contract with him and is free to find a new team for himself. Same goes for young U.S. opposite Colin Hackworth.

Middle blocker Vladimír Sobotka reinforced Kladno after spending five years with České Budějovice.
