The IKF KCL Satellite Final to reveal this year's 1st European club champion

The time for the IKF Korfball Champions League Finals has arrived! On 27 and 28 January 2023, the Catalan city of Terrassa is hosting the 1st of these 3 European club finals: the KCL Satellite Final.

UPDATE 29/1/2023: The Portuguese NC Benfica is the 1st IKF KCL Satellite Final champion!

After 4 previous qualifying events (the R1A & R1B played on September 2022 in Portugal and Poland, the R2 on November in the Czech Republic, and this January’s R3 in Belgium), now it’s time for the finals. [Press kit booklet here]

The Catalan CK Vallparadís, Tornadoes KC from England, the Portuguese NC Benfica and 1908 SZAC Budapest from Hungary were the teams qualified to play this event. Due to a late withdrawal of the Hungarian champion, and the impossibility for KC Barcelona, as reserve team, to play “out of competition” due to some unfortunate miscommunication in the invitation process (read more), the competition will continue with the three qualified teams playing a round-robin, according to the following match schedule:
