Teams
Krasnye Krylia withdrew from the league as the Samara Sports Palace was not adequate for the VTB United League (such as a minimum requirement of 3,000 seats). It planned to reapply for the 2016–17 season after renovations.[1]
In its place, Georgian Superliga side VITA Tbilisi was chosen in July 2015, the first side from that country to play in the league. All other clubs from the previous season were confirmed on the same occasion, along with a rough draft of a calendar.[2]

gollark: Although preparation and fuel production and stuff ended up taking up waaaay more than you get out, IIRC net-positive if you just count energy input used to heat up the fuel or whatever was achieved a while ago.
gollark: Actually, that was sort of achieved a while ago.
