2011–12 División de Honor Femenina de Balonmano
The División de Honor Femenina 2011–12 was the 55th season of women's handball top flight in Spain since its establishment. Season began 10 September 2011 and finished 12 May 2012. Fourteen teams took part in the competition, with BM Gijón, CB Kukullaga and CB Porriño replacing CP Goya AlmerÃa, CBF Monóvar and AD SagardÃa.
SD Itxako won every match but one to lift its fourth championship in a row with a 5 points advantage over runner-up BM Bera Bera, which also qualified for the Champions League. BM Sagunto, BM Alcobendas and CB Mar Alicante followed in European positions while newly promoted Gijón and Kukullaga were relegated as the two bottom teams.
Financial strain led to major changes following the end of the season. 4-times champion CBF Elda asked to be relegated to the third tier on 18 June, Itxako renounced to its place in the Champions League three days later, and Mar Alicante also renounced to its European place on 9 July. Two days later BM Murcia became the second team relegated for financial reasons.Teams
