At the RRC Board meeting home teams for semifinals were drawn.

After a lot of mixing and spining of crumpled pieces of paper in the cup, Marko Kapor drew the winner of the match 31 (RK Nada Split – RK Ljubljana) to host the semi-final against the winner of the match 34 (Esztergomi Vitézek RSE – RC Donau Wien). After that thrilling moment, Jure Makhota pulled out a crumpled piece of paper with the number 32 from the cup and thus determined that the winner of the match 32 (RK Pobednik Belgrade – Battai Bulldogok RC) will be the host of the second semi-final against the winner of the match 33 (RK Zagreb – RK Čelik Zenica).
All the matches of quarter finals, except the match Nada – Ljubljana should be played at 17th and the 18th March, and the date of the match Nada – Ljubljana will be determined after synchronization with the match of the Slovenian national team in the European Nations Cup.
