HC change: Craig Kuligowski replaces Dave Christensen

Changes in the coaching staff of Panthers Wrocław. The current head coach, Dave Christensen, has left the club. His role will be taken over by defensive coordinator Craig Kuligowski.

Dave Christensen joined Panthers Wrocław at the end of 2022. He served as the head coach throughout the 2023 season and until mid-2024. Now, Craig Kuligowski will take over as HC. Kuligowski signed a contract with the Wrocław team before the 2024 season and has been serving as the defensive coordinator. He is an American coach of Polish descent, with experience at prestigious universities in the top division of the NCAA.

– Together with our owner, we made the difficult decision to part ways with our head coach, Dave Christensen. Last season, we made significant progress with him. However, this year's results and actions led us to the decision, for the good of the organization, to terminate the contract. We thank him and wish Dave success in his future career. Craig Kuligowski, who has been working with our defense, will take over his role – explains Jakub Głogowski, general manager of Panthers Wrocław.
