The Polish speedway league continues to see significant rider movements. Kacper Tkocz, a 21-year-old rider who developed through the ROW Rybnik academy, has officially announced his departure from the club after competing in 99 league matches since 2021. As he prepares for his debut senior season, Tkocz expressed his gratitude to fans and staff via social media.

In Poznań, Niels Kristian Iversen is leaving PSŻ Poznań to join the Esbjerg Vikings in Denmark. Following the move of Ryan Douglas to Abramczyk Polonia Bydgoszcz, Iversen expressed gratitude to the club and supporters, though speculation regarding his potential retirement leaves his future in Polish leagues uncertain.

Following PRES Toruń’s successful defense of the Polish Team Championship title, German rider Norick Bloedorn is also departing the club. Bloedorn, who maintained a 1.500 heat average during the 2026 season, bid farewell to fans by singing the Polish national anthem during championship celebrations. Toruń coach Piotr Baron praised him as a “great character” and a “very nice rider.” Bloedorn is expected to join Orlen Oil Motor Lublin, while Mathias Pollestad will join Toruń from Gezet Stal Gorzów to fill the vacancy.
