The 2006 edition of the European Club Cup is over and it is time to take a loot back through history of this competition. Recent times we have intensified efforts to do thorough research on this exacting task.

Unfortunately, not only plenty of important data is missing (see what is missing, maybe you can fill in the gaps?), but we are facing major difficulties while working on standarization of team names.

This is why you are cordially asked to help us correct our list. Below you will find list of all teams ever registered in the ECC competitions sorted by country. You are asked to take a look at your country and check the following:
1. Team names may tend to double, as clubs merge, use sponsor names, etc... Duped names must be merged into one.
2. Some clubs tend to use sponsor names rather than those written in the statutes. Sponsor names should be pointed as not original.
3. Team name should consist of a proper name and a city name, unless a city name is the only one used by a club. Missing city/club names must be filled. Also, spelling has to be checked.

As for now, we have prepared *provisional* all-time medal tables available for both men's and women's competition.

Please post your replies either as comments or via e-mail.
Thank you!

For the Swiss clubs, write "SG Allschwil" instead of "Allschwil SG". The other team names are written correctly.

for Germany: SF Berlin and SFR Neuk�lln 03 is the same club. They changed name (and location) last year. Current name ist "SF Berlin". Neuk�lln is a district of Berlin. The team moved to another district due to financial reasons.
