Data notes: All 528 games with moves are present. Sixteen source PGN dates are corrected: the round-9 Turnov derby was played on 1 December 2025 and the Moravska Slavia derby on 15 December 2025, as confirmed by the earlier round bulletins. Team MP/BP/game-win totals and every appearing player score/game count agree with the final bulletin. Illegal terminal continuations in Nguyen-Krejci (round 1 board 3) and Kriebel-Vitak (round 8 board 6) are retained as PGN comments; their legal endings match the independent archived copies. Initial roster ratings are retained in TXT; game ratings follow the source PGN. Approved reserve-team codes ZIT2 and MSB2 keep their results separate from the respective A teams. No official board-medal awards were confirmed; board medals are disabled.
