Allocation by federation
Water polo federations are allocated places in accordance with their performances in the preliminary round (group stage) of the 2009–10 LEN Euroleague:[1]
- Seeded Federations ranked 1–8 in a ranking of the best-placed team from each federation in the preliminary round of the previous year's competition have three teams qualify. In 2009/10, the preliminary round had exactly eight federations represented: Croatia, Greece, Italy, Hungary, Montenegro, Russia, Serbia, and Spain
- All other federations have two teams qualify and are unseeded
Federations do not have to enter their top two teams into the Euroleague. If they do not think their clubs can be competitive, they can enter teams into the second-tier LEN Cup.
Format and Distribution
The LEN Euroleague 2010/11 has a slightly different format to previous years with the addition of a second group stage to replace the two-legged quarterfinals. There are five phases to this competition:
- First qualifying round (Round-robin tournament) at a single site the weekend ending 26 September 2010
