The Triple Crown is a term in European professional club basketball that refers to a club winning their country's top-tier level national domestic league, primary national domestic cup, and the top-tier level European-wide continental competition (FIBA Women's European Champions Cup and EuroLeague Women) in the same season. It is the highest accomplishment that a European basketball club can achieve during a season. Only 10 European basketball clubs have achieved the Triple Crown, on 12 occasions.
