The 2024–25 LEN Women's Euro Cup is the 26th edition of the water polo competition organised by the European Aquatics. Antenore Plebiscito Padova are the reigning champions,[1] although they will not defend their title after qualifying for the Main round of the Champions League (after which they were disqualified from the Champions League).[2]

Format

[edit]

The fourteen teams that failed to make the Women's Champions League group stage go into three round robin groups of four and five. The groups are held at a centralised venue. The top teams in each group qualify for the knockout stage, which include the Quarterfinals, Semifinals and final to decide the winners of the LEN Women's Euro Cup.
