The defending cup holders were Hapoel Rishon LeZion, having won the cup on its previous edition, but they were eliminated in the group stage.
Group stage
The draw took place on 30 June 2014.[1]
The matches are due to be played from 2 August to 16 August 2014. However the opening date was postponed because of the 2014 Israel–Gaza conflict.[2][3] and the group stage matches were played between 12 August and 19 August 2014.[4][5] The first round of group stage matches was played on 12 August 2014,[6][7] and the second the following Friday, 15 August 2014.[8][9]
