Accomplishments

In 2000–01 season of the Croatian League, Metković and RK Zagreb tied for first place but RK Zagreb had home advantage in the finals which were not completed. Metković finished first in 2001–02 season of the Croatian League but because of a player whose transfer from RK Zagreb to Metković was not completed (it was still a case in arbitration; he played for them in a friendly match under a different name) they were moved to second place.
