The WT Master represents a geographic catchment area and should feature its best
3x3 players. The WT Masters hosting cities are selected with the goal to cover the
world; final selection is FIBA’s prerogative. WT stages will always be related to a city
and its catchment area will cover several countries and even cross continental
boundaries.
The WT is synchronised with 3x3 National Team championships, and will try to avoid
conflict with other major basketball events and other major sport events wherever
possible.
Although 3x3 is an all-year discipline, it is preferentially played outdoors. Therefore the
main season in each region tends to finish at the end of its summer period. The WT
Masters in each catchment area should take its 3x3 season into account and be held at
the end of the good weather season insofar possible.
The catchment areas in 2013 are as follows:
Rationale:
Overall goal of the World Tour is to reach out to as many players and fans from
different countries and cities as possible. Timing is chosen to maximise playing
outdoors.
