For the second time, Turin had the top record in the European Second League’s Western Conference. The Tanks picked up a third straight playoff berth with a 106-56 record. Antwerp had its first-ever winning season, taking second at 99-63.

There was an 11-game gap to third place and a close battle for the final two playoff spots. Frankfurt (88-74) and Liverpool (87-75) ended up earning the spots, edging out Reykjavik (86-76) and Edinburgh (83-79). It was back-to-back berths for the Falcons and the second in three years for the Phantoms. Stuttgart, who won 101 the prior year, plummeted to 70-92.

Varna bounced back from only 77 wins the prior year to take first in the Eastern Conference at 99-63. Tying for second at 96-66 were Cluj-Napoca and Thessaloniki. The Tritons had gotten promoted in 2005, but were relegated right back in 2006. Lyiv was right behind in fourth at 95-67. Krakow, who was just relegated, was six games out of the playoffs at 89-73. Wroclaw (87-75) and Gothenburg (86-76) were next.

In the Western Conference Round Robin, Frankfurt finished first at 4-2. Antwerp and Turin tied at 3-3, while Liverpool was 2-2. The tiebreaker went to the Airedales, keeping the #1 seeded Tanks out of the conference final. The #2 and #3 seeds also advanced in the Eastern Conference with Thessaloniki and Cluj-Napoca both at 4-2. #1 seed Varna was 3-3 and Lviv went 1-5.

Frankfurt won 4-2 over Antwerp in the Western Conference Championship and Thessaloniki topped Cluj-Napoca 4-1. With that, the Tritons were promoted for the second time in three years. The Paladins suffered back-to-back conference finals defeat. In the E2L Championship. Thessaloniki picked up the title 4-2 against Frankfurt.

Other notes: 2007 was the first season where teams other than the two finalists could also be promoted. Any additional EBF Elite teams with 100+ losses would be relegated along with the worst team in each conference. The next in line to move up would be the conference finalists, then the next best playoff team by wins. With that, Antwerp, then Cluj-Napoca, then Turin, would be the additional teams that could move up along with Thessaloniki and Frankfurt.
