Leveling up your clan in Clash of Clans is a big goal for many players. A higher clan level unlocks awesome perks that benefit everyone, making your clan stronger and more appealing to new members. To get your clan to the next level, you need to earn Clan XP, which mostly comes from participating in Clan Wars, Clan War Leagues, Clan Games, and Raid Weekends.

Here's how to make your Clash of Clans clan stronger and level it up quickly.

How to Earn Clan XP

The main way your clan grows in Clash of Clans is by gaining Clan Experience (XP). This XP is mainly earned through a few important activities:

• Clan Wars: This is a major source of Clan XP. Your clan earns XP for each enemy War Base defeated (getting at least one star) and even more for reaching certain star goals (like 40% or 60% of all possible stars). Winning the war gives a big bonus of 50 XP. The more members in a war, the more total XP is up for grabs. For example, a 50v50 war can offer much more XP than a smaller war.
• Clan War Leagues: Similar to regular Clan Wars, your performance in Clan War Leagues also contributes to your clan's XP.
• Clan Games: These events pop up regularly and offer challenges for clan members to complete. As your clan completes challenges and reaches reward tiers, you earn Clan XP. The more tiers your clan unlocks, the more XP you get.
• Clan Capital Raid Weekends: Participating in these events also adds Clan XP to your total.

Donating troops does not directly give Clan XP, but it gives you personal XP. When I first started playing, I thought donating a ton of troops would instantly level up the clan. I'd sit there filling every request, thinking I was a hero for the clan's progress. While it helps your clanmates and is good for your own player level, I learned that the real clan leveling comes from those bigger, coordinated events.

Tips to Level Up Your Clan

Want to see your clan badge shine with a higher level faster? Follow these tips:

• Participate in Clan Wars Regularly: This is hands down the best way to get Clan XP. Try to have as many members as possible join wars. Even getting one star on an enemy base helps to earn XP. Winning wars provides a big bonus, so focus on good attack strategies.
• Crush Clan Games: Make sure all active members take part in Clan Games. Encourage everyone to complete as many challenges as they can to hit those higher reward tiers. More completed challenges mean more Clan XP for everyone.
• Be Active in Clan Capital Raid Weekends: These are a newer way to earn Clan XP and are crucial for consistent growth.
• Focus on Winning: While simply participating gives some XP, winning Clan Wars and performing well in Clan Games and Raid Weekends gives much bigger boosts. Work together, plan attacks, and share strategies to increase your chances of winning.
• Recruit Active Members: A larger, more active clan will naturally earn more XP. More members mean more attacks in war, more challenges completed in Clan Games, and more participation in Raid Weekends. When I was trying to push my clan to Level 10, we made a big effort to recruit players who were genuinely interested in war and clan games. It made a huge difference!
• Donate Troops Often: While troop donations don't give Clan XP directly, they give you personal XP. More importantly, they help your clanmates succeed in battles, which indirectly helps the clan perform better in wars and other events.

Remember, leveling up a clan takes teamwork and consistent effort. The perks you unlock, like higher troop donation limits, quicker request cooldowns, and increased war loot bonuses, are totally worth the grind.
