TEHRAN (Iran News) – FIBA Asia has chosen the Iranian capital of Tehran for hosting the 2020 edition of FIBA U16 Asian Championship.

Accordingly, 16 teams will compete here in Tehran from March 23 to April 2 at Azadi Sports Complex for the Asian title.

The competition is also a qualification for FIBA U17 Basketball World Cup which is going to be held in Bulgaria. Four first teams of the Asian event will book their ticket to the world event.

FIBA U16 Asian Championship is a biennial event that started in 2009. Iran’s best result in the event is the third place gained in 2009. In the final edition in 2018, Iran finished seventh.

Iran has never qualified for FIBA U17 Basketball World Cup which has been held in five biennial editions from 2010 to 2018.

The FIBA Under-16 Asian Championship is an under-16 basketball championship in the International Basketball Federation’s FIBA Asia zone. The event started in 2009 and is held bi-annually. The top placed teams compete in the FIBA Under-17 Basketball World Cup, which started in 2010.

]]> The national Iranian women’s volleyball team began the 20th Asian Women’s Volleyball Championships against the powerful host country South Korean team and suffered a 3-0 defeat.

The Iranian women then won their second match against Hong Kong to advance to the next stage, where they suffered another 3-0 defeat against Thailand.

For their fourth match, the Iranian squad took on Taiwan and lost 3-1 (25-22; 25-22;25-19;25-12) to lose the chance to secure a place at the top of the table.

The female volleyball team will have to wait for the winner of the Indonesia-Kazakhstan match on Sunday to have the chance to secure a fifth place in the Asian competitions. A loss in this round of competition would mean no a better place than the 7th or the 8th for the Iranian squad.
