About EWBL

Dear friends!

European Women`s Basketball League (EWBL) is created for the professional teams from Central, Eastern and Northern Europe.

Our aim is to offer clubs high quality games and attractive competition format. EWBL is the first international league who organize the regular season in three stages, while reducing travel and accommodation costs.

EEBL format is based on the European Youth Basketball league – FIBA approved international competition which last season featured almost 300 teams from 29 countries.
