In a third match of the PlusLiga finals, Jastrzębski Węgiel clinched their fourth Polish Championship by defeating Aluron CMC Warta Zawiercie with a score of 3-1.

Key player Norbert Huber (15 pts) along with teammates Jean Patry (17 pts) and Tomasz Fornal (16 pts) led the scoring, with Patry earning the MVP title for his performance, including 17 points and a 47% attack efficiency.
