One of the biggest surprising transfers happened at the begining of the summer period in Russia. Everything started with a rummor of possible leaving of the captain of the team which soon became true. Inna Suslina left Zveningorod after few years spent there, next season she will play for the 3th ranked team in the russian championship - Rostov Don.

Liudmila Postnova, the Most Valuable Player from the last World Championship, joined the club during the winter period, and also one former togliattian player came in the team - Anna Vinogradova. This summer the team signed 2 more players. Anna Sen is coming on the left position, and Darya Gruzdeva is coming to the playmaker position, but yet the team lost 3 key players. Irina Poltoratskaya first left the team due to injury, and then because of maternity, and Elena Polenova left just before the end of the season, which resulted with losing the final 4 torunamet playing against the host team of the torunament, Dinamo - Volgograd. Ekaterina Andryushina also decided to make a break from the handball court.
The young and talented playmaker Nadezhda Potapenko is injured also, and she will probably join the team during the winter period.

Now the team is searching a replacement on the goalkeeper position, and the future of one more back player - Oxana Koroleva is not clear yet.**
