The 2023 FINA Women's Water Polo World Cup was the 18th edition of the tournament. It ran from 11 April to 25 June 2023. [1] The Super final took place between 23 and 25 June 2023 in Long Beach, United States. [2]
From this year on, the tournament was replacing the FINA Water Polo World League. [3]
The United States won their fourth straight and fifth overall title, after defeating the Netherlands in the final. [4]
There were two divisions. In Division 1, the top eight teams from the World Championships played. They played a round-robin in April, at pre-selected venues. All other teams could sign up in Division 2, in which each continent hosted a qualification tournament. The top two teams from the tournaments played in an intercontinental tournament. The top-six teams of Division 1 and the top-two teams from Division 2 competed in the super final, held between 23 and 25 June 2023. [5] [6] At the end of the tournament, the last-ranked team was relegated to Division 2 and the winner of Division 2 moved to Division 1 for the following year. A win gave a team three points, a win after penalties two, a loss after penalties one and a loss after regular time zero points. [7]
The draw was held on 1 December 2022. [8] The first tournament was played from 11 to 13 April in Rotterdam, Netherlands and the second tournament between 19 and 21 April 2023 in Athens, Greece. [6] The top four teams from the first tournament qualified for the super final but participated in the second tournament as well, where the last two spots were played out. [2]
The top-two teams from both groups qualified for the super final. All teams participated in the second tournament.
All times are local (UTC+2).
