The 2023–24 EuroCup Women was the 22nd edition of FIBA Europe's second-tier international competition for women's basketball clubs under such name. LDLC ASVEL Féminin are the defending champions, but won't defend their title because they're taking part in the 2023–24 EuroLeague Women.

London Lions became the first British team to ever win a European title in basketball after beating Beşiktaş in the final.[3]

Format

[edit]

After the qualifiers, 48 teams are divided into 12 groups of 4. with the top 2 plus the 8 best third place teams advancing to the knockout stage. In the knockout stage, teams are seeded based on their results in the regular season. Each tie in the knockout stage is played in a home and away format, where the winner on aggregate wins the tie and advances to the next round.

Rankings

[edit]

The results are based on the results of the past three seasons.[4]

Rule change

[edit]

Starting this year, FIBA Europe has decided to change the format to a pan-European competition and scrapped conferences in the regular season.[5]

Teams

[edit]

The teams were announced on 13 July 2023.[6] The teams with the S in the qualifying round means they were seeded. [6] Teams with EL lost their EuroLeague Women Qualification round Play Off and dropped down to the EuroCup.

Marketing

[edit]

On 3 August 2023, FIBA Europe unveiled a new logo for the tournament.[39] Their reasons behind the logo refresh were:

The approach to the logo refresh was to elevate the initial logo concept to a more dynamic 3D look with greater depth and character. While keeping its core elements, it adds a new and vibrant dimension to the logo, offering a fresh modern feel together with the new typography.
