The European Cup draw for the 21/22 season was held today (Thursday) in Germany and arranged a surprising draw for Ness Ziona, who won the factory last season.
Quite strangely, Ness Ziona was placed in the qualifying stage and not in the houses stage.
In the second qualifying round she will play against the winner between Austrian Vienna and Estonian Parno.
To get to the houses you will have to go through another early stage.
The one placed directly in the home stage is Hapoel Gilboa / Galil, which won a hard draw and will play at home with Zaragoza, Reggio Emilia and Sartov.
Hapoel Haifa, which returned to the Premier League last season, is also returning to European factories this season.
She will meet in the early qualifiers Monday the Russian Krasnoyarsk.
If you pass, you will play against one of the three: German Beirut, Hungarian Szeged and Macedonian Skopje.
If you go through this stage as well, it will go up to the houses stage.
The Ukrainian Prometheus coached by Nano Ginzburg will play in the home stage with BC Kiev, the Bulgarian Rilsky.
Hapoel Eilat, which plays in the Champions League qualifiers, will be the fourth team in this house if it loses and drops out of the European Cup.
The qualifying round will start on September 28, the home stage will start on October 13 and the season will end in the final game on April 22.
