35 players on the Preliminary Roster but Coach Anastasi only has 12 pictures in his hands to represent Poland at the 2013 FIVB World League as defending champions. Polska will also try to win the gold at the 2013 European Championship after winning the bronze 2 years ago.

2013 Roster:

1. Zbigniew Bartman
2. Grzegorz Bociek
3. Fabian Drzyzga
4. Wojciech Ferens
5. Piotr Hain
6. Miłosz Hebda
7. Krzysztof Ignaczak
8. Marcin Janusz
9. Jakub Jarosz
10. Karol Kłos
11. Dawid Konarski
12. Grzegorz Kosok
13. Bartosz Krzysiek
14. Michał Kubiak
15. Bartosz Kurek
16. Grzegorz Łomacz
17. Marcin Możdżonek
18. Maciej Muzaj
19. Piotr Nowakowski
20. Michał Ruciak
21. Krzysztof Wierzbowski
22. Michał Winiarski
23. Łukasz Wiśniewski
24. Wojciech Włodarczyk
25. Paweł Woicki
26. Damian Wojtaszek
27. Andrzej Wrona
28. Maciej Zajder
29. Paweł Zatorski
30. Wojciech Żaliński
31. Michał Żurek
32. Łukasz Żygadło

The names in bold represented Poland at the 2012 London Olympics.

We could be wrong but the only major change in the roster is the exclusion of Pawel Zagumny. Other than that, Poland still looks strong and has what it takes to win major titles this year.

Good luck BBs!
