Bělohradský's ISU Junior Grand Prix (JGP) debut came in the 2014–15 season; he placed 14th in Ljubljana, Slovenia in late August 2014 and 18th in Zagreb, Croatia in October.

Bělohradský changed coaches ahead of the 2015–16 season, joining Vlasta Kopřivová in Prague.[4] In September, he competed at two 2015 JGP events, finishing 18th in Linz, Austria and 11th in Toruń, Poland. Making his senior international debut, he placed 9th at the 2015 Ice Challenge, an ISU Challenger Series (CS) event in October. He won a bronze medal at the Merano Cup and placed 10th at the NRW Trophy. In December, he made his first senior national podium, taking silver behind Michal Březina.

Bělohradský was selected to compete at the 2016 European Championships in Bratislava, Slovakia as the Czech Republic's second entry in the men's event. Ranked 19th in the short program,[5] he qualified for the free skate and finished 20th overall.
