2014–15 IIHF European Women's Champions Cup

The 2014–15 IIHF European Women's Champions Cup was the eleventh competition held for the IIHF European Women's Champions Cup. It was the last holding of the tournament before its scheduled stoppage in 2015. SKIF Nizhny Novgorod of Russia's Women's Hockey League won the tournament for the second time; the team had previously won the cup in 2009.

The tournament was the setting for the first instance of the “four-man officiating system” - two referees and two linesmen - at an IIHF women’s hockey tournament. The first puck-drop with four officials occurred in the Round 2 game between the Vienna Capitals and HC Poprad in Nizhny Novgorod with referees Kaisa Ketonen (FIN) and Marie Picavet (FRA), and linesmen Yekaterina Mikhalyova (KAZ) and Olga Steinberg (RUS).
