Fiba 3x3: Hong Kong Quest tournament to act as prelude to returning World Tour Masters
- With an open registration, organisers are looking ‘to recruit best teams in Hong Kong, be it grassroots or those from A1 Division’
- Fiba 3x3 World Tour Masters to return to Hong Kong for the last of 17 legs, ahead of World Tour Final
Dozens of local basketball players will vie for the chance to compete against elite FIBA 3x3 teams from around the world.
The winners of the “Hong Kong Quest” in October will then be included in a six-team qualification draw for the returning FIBA 3x3 World Tour Masters in Hong Kong, which will accommodate up to 1,000 spectators, a 25 per cent increase from last year.
“While the open registration is going to be fair, we’re aiming to recruit the best teams in Hong Kong,” Kenny Wong, CEO of organisers M1 Group, said.
“Be it grassroots players or those from the local A1 Division, we hope to unearth the most suitable team to represent us at this competition.”
Organisers said the Hong Kong Quest will be completed within one week, depending on the total number of teams taking part, and that it could be staged at some of the city’s iconic landmarks.
