Международная федерация баскетбола ( FIBA / ˈfiːbə Basketball ; / Fédération ) FEE - французский : Internationale de bə [а] [4] — это ассоциация национальных организаций, которая управляет баскетболом во всем мире. ФИБА определяет правила баскетбола , определяет необходимое оборудование и средства, организует международные соревнования, регулирует перемещение спортсменов между странами и контролирует назначение международных судей . Всего членами являются 212 национальных федераций, организованных с 1989 года в пять зон: Африка , Америка , Азия , Европа и Океания .
ФИБА организует как мужские, так и женские Всемирные олимпийские квалификационные турниры ФИБА , а также турнир по баскетболу на летних Олимпийских играх , которые санкционированы МОК . [5] Чемпионат мира по баскетболу ФИБА — мировой турнир среди мужских национальных сборных, который проводится раз в четыре года. Команды соревнуются за приз Нейсмита , названный в честь канадско-американского создателя баскетбола Джеймса Нейсмита . Структура турнира аналогична, но не идентична структуре чемпионата мира по футболу ; эти турниры проводились в одном и том же году с 1970 по 2014 год, но начиная с 2019 года чемпионат мира по баскетболу перенесется на год, следующий за чемпионатом мира по футболу. Параллельное мероприятие для женских команд - чемпионат мира по баскетболу среди женщин ФИБА - также проводится раз в четыре года; с 1986 по 2014 год он проводился в том же году, что и мужские соревнования, но в другой стране.
History
[edit]1932–49; founding and early years
[edit]The association was founded in Geneva in 1932, two years after the sport was officially recognized by the IOC. Before 1934, basketball was under the umbrella of the International Amateur Handball Federation. Its original name was Fédération Internationale de basket-ball amateur. The eight nation's basketball federations that were the founding members of FIBA were: Argentina, Czechoslovakia, Greece, Italy, Latvia, Portugal, Romania, and Switzerland. In September 1934 the Protocol of Stockholm was passed and the FIBA became the only recognized authority responsible for basketball. During the 1936 Summer Olympics held in Berlin, the Federation named James Naismith (1861–1939), the founder of basketball, as its Honorary President.
Development (1950–2019)
[edit]FIBA has organized a world championship, known as World Cup, for men since 1950 and a women's world championship, known as the Women's World Cup, since 1953. From 1986 through 2014, both events were held every four years, alternating with the Olympics.[6] The men's World Cup was moved to a new four-year cycle, with tournaments in the year before the Summer Olympics, after 2014.
On 7 April 1989, at a special congress in Munich following the conclusion of the 1988–89 FIBA European Cup, FIBA member nations voted, by a margin of 56 to 13, to allow NBA players to participate in its international events, including the World Cup and the Olympics. The change also intended to ward off competition from the Goodwill Games, which was rivaling the Olympics at the time and also seeking to bring NBA players into its basketball events.[7][8][9]
The Federation headquarters moved to Munich in 1956, then returned to Geneva in 2002. In 1991, it founded the FIBA Hall of Fame; the first induction ceremony was held on 12 September 2007, during EuroBasket 2007. During its 81st anniversary in 2013, FIBA moved into its new headquarters, "The House of Basketball", at Mies.[10] Andreas Zagklis became the Secretary-General of FIBA on 7 December 2018.
2020–present; suspensions of Russia and Belarus
[edit]In February 2022, Russia and Belarus were provisionally suspended from international competitions until further notice due to Russia's invasion of Ukraine.[11][12] It also suspended the two countries from hosting any competitions.[12]

Structure
[edit]Five zones and 212 national federations
[edit]There are five zones, in which FIBA oversees the game in the different continents and regions of the world through its regional offices under its new governance structure, which was approved by the 2014 FIBA Extraordinary Congress in Istanbul.[14] National federations are members of FIBA and are provided for in FIBA's General Statutes with their assigned zones.[15] The Statutes also state that upon a national federation's admission into FIBA, it is assigned to a zone by the Central Board.[16]
- FIBA Africa (54 members)
- FIBA Americas (42 members)
- FIBA Asia (44 members)
- FIBA Europe (50 members)
- FIBA Oceania (22 members)
FIBA recognizes 212 national federations; see the list of men's national basketball teams and the list of women's national basketball teams. Unlike other sports organizations, FIBA recognizes the British Basketball Federation as the lone governing body for basketball in Great Britain, as a result of a merger in 2016 between the basketball federations of two of the four Home Nations within the United Kingdom (England and Scotland).[17] Wales had rejected the proposed merger in 2012 but agreed in 2015. Several members of FIBA Oceania, notably Australia and New Zealand, also compete in Asian tournaments.
In 2021, Peru was disaffiliated from FIBA[18] after being suspended in 2018.[19]
The FIBA Men's World Ranking and FIBA Women's World Ranking are both updated after a FIBA competition or qualification window and are based on their performance, particularly in games, in those events. The men's ranking was updated on 10 September 2023 after the 2023 FIBA Basketball World Cup, while the latest women's ranking was updated on 21 August 2023 after the FIBA Women's Continental Cups, which took place in all FIBA zones.
Laws and governance
[edit]FIBA's headquarters is located in Mies, Switzerland and is known as the Patrick Baumann House of Basketball, named after the organization's former Secretary-General.
FIBA's supreme body is the FIBA Congress, an assembly of representatives from each affiliated national federation, with each having one vote. The Congress assembles every two years, either an elective or mid-term congress, and is the only body that can make modifications to FIBA's General Statutes. An elective congress elects the FIBA President, Treasurer, and members of the FIBA Central Board, and appoints members of their Ethics and Nominations Panels.[20] Two extraordinary congresses have been held since 1989, with the most recent held in 2014.
The FIBA Central Board is the organization's highest executive body. It comprises 29 people: the president; the secretary-general; the treasurer; 13 members elected by the FIBA Congress; the 5 presidents of each FIBA zone; up to six co-opted members; a representative each from the National Basketball Association and the players. The Board is the body that decides which countries will host the FIBA Basketball World Cup and the FIBA Women's Basketball World Cup. The Central Board for the term 2023-2027 comprises 27 members.
The president and the secretary general are the main office holders of FIBA and are in charge of its daily administration. Sheikh Saud Ali Al Thani was elected president on 23 August 2023 at the FIBA Congress. Andreas Zagklis was appointed secretary-general on 8 December 2018 following the death of Patrick Baumann.[21]
