From The President Desk

Sheikh Saud Bin Ali Al-Thani
President FIBA Asia

In all sincerity, I fully appreciate your full support and cooperation that contributed to the excellent success in the development of basketball in Asia.

This year the Champions Cup in Iran, the Women Championship in Korea and the Men Championship in Japan were completed in tremendous success. Once again I wish to thank the hosting federations for their effort in organising the events in high notes.

The competition results have indicated that there was an vast improvement in the performance of our players. Thus closing the disparity in standard among the teams of Asia. Such promising record would further escalate the popularity of basketball throughout Asia. Let us continue to make concerted effort to ensure that the game maintains the top participating sport in Asia.

Thank you.
