The 27th European Club Cup and the 16th ECC for women took place from September 24th to October 2nd, 2011, in Rogaska Slatina, Slovenia.
Rogaška Slatina (German: Rohitsch-Sauerbrunn) is famous for its curative mineral water, spa and crystal glass. For centuries the curative mineral water, rich in magnesium, the picturesque countryside and other local attractions have drawn visitors to the area. Roman inscriptions referring to the spa waters have been found.

Many top GMs were to be found in the seven-round tournament, including three of the World Cup finalists. There were 65 men's and 12 women's teams. The seven-round event was won by the team from St Petersburg, headed by World Cup winner Peter Svidler, who scored 50% on board one (performance: 2664). Second was SOCAR, headed by Teimour Radjabov, who scored 4.5/5 points with a 3019 performance. Teimour, we hear, is to get married tomorrow (October 7th). Clearly this was very motivating for the Azeri GM. Here are the final standings of the top twenty clubs:
