The countdown is officially over, and the stage is set for an exhilarating week of international basketball right here on home soil. From July 7th to July 12th, Malta will be hosting the highly anticipated FIBA U16 Women’s Eurobasket Division C tournament.

Our young local athletes have been putting in the grueling hours on the court, and now, they are ready to wear the red and white jersey with pride. But to truly conquer the European stage, they need their most important teammate: you.

The Malta Basketball Association (MBA) has officially dropped their promotional campaign, and the call to action is loud and clear. Whether you are a veteran of the game, a passionate basketball enthusiast, or looking for a thrilling family outing, it’s time to rally behind our girls.

The Group Stage Road Map

All eyes will be on the Ta’ Qali Basketball Pavilion as the group stage action gets underway. Malta faces two crucial matchups this week, and a packed stadium could make all the difference.

Mark your calendars for the official fixtures:

Free Admission — No Excuses!
