Championship League is a professional snooker tournament, devised by Matchroom Sport.

The tournament was originally held at the Crondon Park Golf Club in Stock, Essex, from its debut in 2008 until 2016.

The event was introduced in 2008 by Barry Hearn to provide additional competition and as a qualifier to the Premier League Snooker series.

A ranking event version of the tournament began from September 2020, played in a different format to its invitational, non‑ranking counterpart and open to the entire World Snooker Tour.

In June 2020 there was a one‑off, round‑robin, non‑ranking edition of the tournament, played in another different format, held in Milton Keynes.
