INTERNATIONAL WHEELCHAIR BASKETBALL FEDERATION

Galatasaray, after consulting with the Turkish (able-body) Basketball Federation has proposed to go back one week earlier (to the originally proposed dates) for the IWBF Europe Champions Cup Finals. Otherwise, we would have played in the same city our finals with the Euroleague Finals, which was not in Galatasaray’s and possibly our interest, also because of TV and media coverage.
With our blessing, they have consulted with the only other team that is already qualified for those finals, the 2011 European runner up RSV Lahn-Dill from Germany.
Galatasaray, Lahn-Dill and IWBF-Europe came to an agreement and the Champions Cup Finals this year will take place from 3 – 6 May 2012.
We apologise for having to make these changes, but we have considered to be in the interest of wheelchair basketball in Europe.
