FIBA Asia Development Plan 2013-16: four years to become a force

FIBA Asia has undertaken a massive and ambitious exercise – FIBA Asia Development Plan – to prepare all its National Federations to gear up for the challenges of and in taking basketball to the next level.

Spread over the next four years, starting as of April 2013, the FIBA Asia Development Plan targets key areas that of Administration, Coaching and Technical Related matters taking into account the level of development already achieved in a National Federation.

FIBA Asia has indeed made rapid progress and taken giant strides in all the areas concerning the sport  in the last decade and half or so. FIBA Asia today is recognized and respected for the committed, coordinated and comprehensive approach it has taken in bringing in development.

The FIBA Asia Development Plan is a continuation of this process and a catalyst to the very process.
