Cyril Sicsic's experience in the Ligue Féminine de Basketball (LFB) having played with a reduced professional roster should serve him well as COB Calais have just six professionals in the roster. All the other players come from the club's academy.

Calais did not have to do much recruiting because Aurélie Cibert, Mélanie Devaux, Mélanie Arnaud (academy contract) and Manon Sinico were under contract and agreed to return.
The first signing is Emilie Duvivier who had found out that her court time would drop at Union Hainaut, so she requested for a release from her contract. Floriane Herrscher who played at Reims BF last season was the second player to sign.
With the collapse of the structure at Rennes, Mélissa Diawakana joined the mass exodus of players by coming to Calais. The final recruit is the American Cherin "Britany" Miller.
Marine Capon and Constance Delbecque make up the LF2 roster as well as playing for the second or youth team.
Cyril Sicsic qui est l'entraîneur du club calaisien depuis 2005 est confident que COB Calais devrait être de retour en LFB dans les deux ans à venir.
Son premier objectif pour cette saison est la participation en final four.
Il a l'habitude de jongler avec un effectif professionnel réduit et les jeunes du centre d'entraînement en ligue féminine de basket, donc cette saison qu'avec six joueuses avec un contrat professionnel il devrait utiliser ses expériences de la LFB en faveur de sa formation.
