Dubocica

SRC Dubočica in Leskovac holds 3,600 people, and in recent seasons those seats have rarely stayed empty. The club plays under the name RK Dubočica 54, the number a straightforward marker of 1954, the year it came together in the town.

For most of its history that was a modest, provincial story, but the last two seasons have rewritten it. Winning the Super B Liga in 2024/2025 sent Dubočica up into the Arkus Liga, Serbia's top flight. The same season, the team reached the final of the Serbian Cup and lost to Partizan 21:34. A year earlier, in 2021/2022, they had gone out at the semi-final stage of the same competition, beaten by Metaloplastika.

Andrija Atanasković captains the side now, with goalkeeper Stefan Arđelan and pivot Goran Ristović.

Three seasons: a promotion, a cup final, a league final. All lost to the same opponent, Partizan.
