Hadamczik returns to post of Czech ice hockey manager

Alois Hadamczik has been selected as the new Czech ice hockey manager. Hadamczik, who recently helmed Pardubice to the Czech Extraliga title, will take over from Vladimír Růžička immediately after the World Championship in Germany next month. He will sign a two-year contract and return to a post he previously held for three years; Hadamczik led the Czechs to a silver medal at the 2006 World Championship and bronze at the Winter Olympics the same year.
