After hosting the first FIBA-endorsed 3×3 tournament in Luxembourg end of June 2021 and first-hand seeing the excitement of this new Olympic discipline, the club of T71 Dudelange and its youth commission were eager to organize another 3×3 tournament during the Pentecost holidays.
On Saturday October 30th, T71 Dudelange in cooperation with FLBB, planned a full day of competitions for U16 men and women at Centre Sportif René Hartmann. Starting at 10:00, 16 teams featuring 58 players were competing during the group phase on a total of six courts.
After lunch, the quarterfinals, half-finals, finals and 3rd place game were played on the two main courts in Salle Grimler, followed by the distribution of prizes for the three top teams in each category. Congratulations to “Team Certified” (U16 men) and “Born Ballers” (16 women) for finishing 1st Place!
As 3×3 is slowly starting to appear more and more in the Luxembourg basketball landscape, the FLBB would like to encourage clubs to organize such events. For further 3×3 information and support, feel free to contact Nadia Mossong (nmossong@flbb.lu).
