The 2023–24 IKF Europe Korfball Champions League is the 2nd edition of IKF's premier competition for Korfball clubs under a new name. PKC/Vertom are the defending champions.

PKC/Vertom successfully defended their title by defeating Boeckenberg KC in the final.[1]

Format

The format was given a few tweaks after feedback from last season.[2]

  • Round 1 – 13 teams are drawn into 2 Round Robin groups, the group winners advance to Round 2, while the teams who finish second and third play the Satellite Cup.
  • Round 2 – 8 teams, plus the two advancing teams from Round 1, are drawn into 2 Round Robin groups, the group winners advance to Champions League, while the teams who finish second and third play the Challenger Cup.
  • Champions League – Originally, 4 automatically qualified teams, plus the two advancing teams from Round 2, are drawn into 2 Round Robin groups of three, the top 2 progress to the semifinals.[3] However, the format changed after the late withdrawal of CC Oeiras. Instead, five teams will play a five team Round Robin group. The winners of the group will be crowned champions.

Withdrawal of CC Oeiras
