The league consists of two phases: a single round of fixtures comprising the regular season, which determines the seedings for the playoff event, the Superfinal, in which the teams then directly contest the league title, with the winners becoming WEBSL champions.

Spain are the two-time defending champions.

Teams

edit

Nine teams enter this season.[a][1][2] Italy enter straight into the Superfinal as hosts.[3]

No teams make their debut this season. Switzerland return after a two-season absence.[1]

Regular season (Nazaré, 30 August – 1 September)

edit

Draw

edit

The draw to split the eight participating teams into two groups of four took place on 8 August.[8]

Portugal, as hosts, were assigned to the head of Group A, and Spain, as the defending champions, were assigned to the head of Group B. The other six teams were split into three pots of two based on their final placement in the 2023 WEBSL, in order from the highest placing teams placed in Pot 1, down to the lowest placed in Pot 3. From each pot, one team was drawn into Group A and the other team was drawn into Group B.[1]
