The action unfolds at the iconic Brasilia TV Tower, a landmark in Brazil’s vibrant capital city. Our student-athletes will not only compete at the highest level but also immerse themselves in the rich samba experience that Brazil has to offer.

FISU’s involvement in the 3×3 game dates back to the sport’s early days in 2010. The first and second World University 3×3 Basketball Championships were hosted by the University Sports Federation of Serbia and Brazil, respectively, in May 2011. Now, the tournament returns to Brazil.

All is set and we are wishing our Africa teams nothing but the best.
