In 2010 he was named the fifth best player in the world by the Swedish floorball magazine “Innebandymagazine” as the only non-Scandinavian in a top ten ranking.

Career

Cepek was born on December 6, 1975 in Havířov in Czechoslovakia . He grew up in a sporty family, his father Zdeněk Cepek played ice hockey for AZ Havířov , later became their coach and in 2010 was inducted into the club's Hall of Fame. His cousins ​​and uncle also played ice hockey and his younger sister Susan Cepek first did athletics and later also played floorball for Tatran Střešovice in the highest Czech league. Radim Cepek's path also began with ice hockey that he started playing at the age of 5. He attended a special primary school where he could train five times a week. He went through the entire offspring of AZ Havířov and only switched to floorball in 1987 at the age of 17, which was created in the Czech Republic at that time. He got to know floorball in Ostrava , where he attended a college of mechanical engineering (Střední průmyslová škola stavební Ostrava) from 1990 to 1994, where he came into contact with the new sport for the first time and began to train. He broke off a subsequent study at the Technical University of Ostrava , begun in 1996, two years later.

In 1993 he and his friend Ondřej Vašíček founded the floorball club Dream Team Ostrava, with which he took part in the first Czech floorball championships in 1993/94, which at that time still comprised ten teams. The team finished the first season in second place. In the next two seasons, too, the team barely missed winning the title, last season under the new name FBC Ostrava. At the end of his time in Ostrava, he was also part of the Czech national team at the first floorball world championships in 1996 and previously also played the two European championships in 1994 and 1995.

He then moved to the large Czech club TJ Tatran Střešovice in Prague. There he lost the first playo finals and again had to be satisfied with second place. It wasn't until 1998 that the curse of second places was defeated and he was able to celebrate his first championship title in 1998. Then Cepek started his international career, first with a one-year trip to the second Swedish league for IBF Tranas , after which he returned to Střešovice. Back in Prague he finished the championship one more time in second place and moved to Sweden again after a few games in the new season. This time he went to Växjö IBK and was the first Czech to play in the Elitserien , the highest Swedish league. However, the team finished the championship in 15th place and rose with it. Cepek himself returned a second time from Sweden to Tatra Střešovice, with whom he won his second championship title in the 2001/02 season. In 2001, 2002 and 2003 he was voted Czech floorball player of the year.

In 2002 the center moved to Switzerland to HC Rychenberg Winterthur , where he became the top scorer of the National League A in his first season . Cepek stayed in Winterthur for four years and scored a total of 111 goals for his team, but never won a championship title. From the second season he also worked as an assistant coach and last season he was player-coach, but not yet the team's head coach. During his first time in Winterthur, he won silver at the 2004 World Cup together with the national team. After four years he moved as a player-coach first for one season to the 1st division club UHC Dietlikon and then - after failed contract negotiations with Winterthur - hired for one season at the second division UHC Waldkirch-St.Gallen , with whom he promoted to the National League A. mastered. He then returned to Winterthur, where he led the team as a player-coach for two years. There he was voted “Coach of the Year” after a successful 2009/10 season in which he led Winterthur to the play-off finals. After this success, the Czech moved to GC .

In the year of his move to GC, he was surprisingly no longer nominated for the squad of the Floorball World Cup 2010 , which the star of the Czech national team, who had previously participated in all seven world championships, did not understand at all and ultimately came out as a consequence This event GC left after only six months due to «motivation problems» and returned to his home country.

Back in the Czech Republic, he was the new coach of the first division club Chodov Prague , in whose women's team his wife and floorball player Magdalena Cepek-Žižková played. When, two years after his non-appointment, the Czech national team finished in 7th place at the subsequent World Cup in Switzerland , Cepek was appointed the new national coach and replaced Tomáš Trnavský, who had excluded him from the national team two years earlier. In spring 2015, Cepek announced that he wanted to remain the national coach in the Czech Republic until the 2018 World Cup. As part of this agreement, he can again become the coach of a Czech first division team. After the 2016 World Cup in Riga, which ended without a medal for the Czech national team, Cepek announced his resignation. In Chodov he was able to win the cup as a player-coach in the 2012/13 season and also reached the playo final, which was lost. After this success he ended his playing career and only worked as a coach. Cepek left Chodov in the summer of 2016 and is the new coach of FBC Start98 Prague .
