Club career

Teppan was born in Pärnu, and started his career in hometown club Pärnu VK at the age of 17. After two seasons he moved to Bigbank Tartu and won the Estonian Championship in 2014. He then moved to abroad and signed with Italian team Altotevere Città di Castello alongside compatriot Andri Aganits.[1] He spent the next two seasons with Hypo Tirol Innsbruck winning two Austrian Championship titles. For the 2017–18 season Teppan moved back to Italy and played for Diatec Trentino.[2] In May 2018 he signed a two-year contract with the Polish PlusLiga top team PGE Skra Bełchatów.[3][4] In his first season with the team Teppan mostly played as a substitute for the club legend Mariusz Wlazły. His first trophy with the team was the 2018 Polish SuperCup when Bełchatów defeated Trefl Gdańsk 3–0. Teppan and the team also reached the semi-finals of the 2018–19 CEV Champions League making him the second Estonian after Oliver Venno to play in the semi-finals of the Champions League. He opted out of the second year of the contract and signed with French team Stade Poitevin Poitiers for the 2018–19 season.[5] Teppan left the team in February 2020 and signed with Noliko Maaseik of the Belgian League where he was again united with compatriot Andri Aganits.[6]
