Three European Teams on the Podium!

Germany, Türkiye and Great Britain on the U23 Men’s World Championships’ Podium

“I have no words, it’s incredible what the European teams achieved at the U23 World Championship in Sao Paulo. With first to third place finishes – 1st Germany, 2nd Türkiye, 3rd Great Britain – history was made. To add to the glory and our near future player stars would like to honour great performance of 6th ranked Italy and 10th Israel.

Congratulations to all the players and coaches for their outstanding performance. Thanks also go to the national federations and clubs without whose outstanding work these successes would not have been possible.

Congratulations again! The European wheelchair basketball family is proud of you.”

Walter Pfaller, IWBF Europe President
