System of Competition
Similar to the EuroLeague, the EuroCup had a Final Four to choose the champion from 2003 (year of creation) to 2005. In 2006, however, this system was abandoned and reverted to the format used in the Ronchetti Cup, that is, a the finals are determined by the aggregate score in a home-and-home series.
