IBSA Europe Regional Goalball Championships is one of the four competition regions used for World Championships and Paralympic Games qualification for goalball, a team sport for athletes with a vision impairment. Conducted under the rules of the International Blind Sports Federation (IBSA), the other regions are Africa, America, and Asia-Pacific. Whilst in the West Asia geographic region, Israel competes within the Europe region.

The region has a large number of competitive countries, and under the rules, where there are more than sixteen teams, two 'divisions' are created. As of 2024, Europe has three divisions (A, B, C) for male athletes, and two divisions (A, B) for female athletes. Practice is to generally hold 'Groups' A and C in one year, and Group B the following year; A being the highest ranked.
