4. National Team Competitions In spite of being a young discipline, there are already a significant number of National Team competitions. The main National Teams competitions are: FIBA 3x3 World Championships; FIBA 3x3 U18 World Championships; European Olympic Games; Youth Olympic Games; Zone Championships; All these National Team competitions comply with the endorsement requirements and are part of the 3x3 Competition Network. In addition, there are a number of other National Team competitions, such as FISU World University Championships organized with FIBA’s technical cooperation; those competitions are part of the3x3 Competition Network if they comply with the endorsement criteria. 4.1. FIBA 3x3 World Championships The two main National Team competitions organized by FIBA are: FIBA 3x3 U18 World Championships; FIBA 3x3 World Championships. The following sections mainly refer to those two events, but most of the features are applicable to or are recommended for other national team competitions. FIBA is converging the format and size of WC and U18 WC (together “FIBA Champs”) to facilitate replication and standardisation of the events. Qualification system, eligibility and applicable regulations will be same for both. FIBA Champs have to have simultaneously men and women’s team competition and a series of individual contests. FIBA is developing a FIBA Champs Event Manual. FIBA 3x3 Competition Network_Edition 2013_July Page 20 of 24
Rationale for individual contests: Individual contests will supplement the main tournament, add more highlights, give more chances to win medals, strengthen group dynamics, fit with the streetball culture and add to the entertainment for audiences. 4.1.1. Eligibility and qualification system In order to be eligible to participate in FIBA Champs, Zone championships and IOC- organized competitions (“Global Champs”), National Federations are required to have three FIBA-endorsed events in their territory in the previous 12 months up to a determined cut-off date 2 . Eligible countries have three routes to qualify: 1. Host Country is awarded a place; 2. Previous tournament edition: The Winner of the previous (U18)-WC/OG qualifies directly to the next edition 3 ; in case this team is the host country, then the second ranked team qualifies; 3. Position in FIBA 3x3 national federation forced ranking. The National Federation forced ranking has a cutoff date November 1 st of each year for June WC the following year. Details on the ranking to be found in the “Criteria to Qualify for NT” and the “Ranking Quick Guide” document on the hub on fiba.com/3x3/downloads. The FIBA 3x3 national federation ranking is calculated as follows: 2 Cut-off date is 1 November (end of season) of prior year for FIBA Champs 3 Youth Olympic Games are considered U18 Championships; whilst Olympic Games are considered World Championships FIBA 3x3 Competition Network_Edition 2013_July Page 21 of 24
