Report by our polish collaborator Piotr Girczys

No more polish coaches, at least not for now. Tadeusz Wolny, Andrzej Bianga, Leszeck Latacz, Tomasz Aftanski, Wladyslaw Lach: those are some of the last names who were sitting on the national team bench in the past 4-5 years. A record number of changes for the Polish FA management before taking another direction: a foreign coach. As we reported before, the choice came after the four nations tournament played in Debrecen. The newly appointed coach is Vlastimil Bartosek, former assistant coach of Tomas Neumann in the Czech national team staff. He overcame the competition of the three alternative candidates: the ukrainian coaches Roman Smirnov and Roman Kovalcik (Ukraine) as well as the lusitan coach Francisco Batista.

The czech coach of Poland has then just announced his first official roster for the double friendly match vs Slovakia. In the original team were included both Bartosz Leszyk and Dariusz Pieczynski from Akademia Futsal Club Pniewy, but they had to renounce to the slovak challenge and were respectively replaced by their club mate Rafal Franz and the Rekord Bielsko-Biala's Piotr Szymura.
