Bids

Europe


After Germany and France withdrew their 4-nations-bid to host the EuroBasket 2015 (together with Italy and Croatia) Ingo Weiss, DBB president, announced an interest of France and Germany to host jointly the 2019 FIBA Basketball World Cup.

Only Lithuania has ever qualified for a World Championship, and it hosted EuroBasket 2011. Latvia hosted the EuroBasket Women 2009. However, the previous two world championships were held in European countries.
Americas


Puerto Rico, holds the record of hosting the most FIBA Americas Championships, at five, all in San Juan in 1980, 1993, 1999, 2003 and 2009.

Brazil has previously hosted in 1954 and 1963.

I would love to see Brazil hosting, but even though we have 2 modern arenas (both in Rio), and 5 to 6 avarege arenas, we still need to upgrade... Its a shame that a city like Sao Paulo still depends on the old and obsolet Ibirapuera Gymnasium

^^ :applause:

Ah se o Brasil tivesse mais Ginásios assim, com cuidados na aparência externa (melhor se maiores também), em detrimento do monte de galpões feiosos...

(Se bem que o segundo é primeiramente considerado uma Casa de Show à um Ginásio... Mas que ginásio nunca foi usado como Casa de Show?)


Mais duas fotos de ambos:

É UMA DAS ARENAS MAIS MODERNAS DO BRASIL e uma das maiores também. Foi projetada por arquitetos jaraguaenses e construída em cima de um antigo lixão - o que não permite a pavimentação do estacionamento.

It's not only about the seating capacity of the arenas. Basketball is not yet popular enough to fill 10.000 seat arenas on every single game, as was clearly shown by the last few World championships. Only two teams have fans that travel en-masse to every competition no matter where it is held, and they are Slovenia and Lithuania. Others have a few hundred fans at most and the "obligation" to fill the arenas falls largely on local population. I mean, do you really think it matters if the arena is 8 or 17 thousand seater, when it's Angola and New Zealand (no offense to them two) "battling" it out on the court.


Lithuania will not bid for the 2019 Basketball World cup. There were some talks and ideas thrown here and there, but those are just pipe dreams. 2023 though might just be realistic and i'm talking about a combined Lithuania/Latvia/Estonia bid. And it will probably look something like this:

Group stage:

  • Vilnius, Lithuania, Siemens Arena 11.000
  • Riga, Latvia, Arena Riga 12.500
  • Tallinn, Estonia, Saku Suurhall arena, 8.000
  • Klaipeda, Lithuania, Svyturys Arena, 6.000
Playoffs and Final:

  • Kaunas, Lithuania, Zalgiris arena, 15.500 (up to 17.500 if necessary)

If the arena's in Klaipeda and Tallinn would be deemed as too small, something (reconstruction of existing ones or construction of new) could be done about that.

  • So that's 5 beautiful old cities
  • 4 of them on the UNESCO list (Vilnius/Riga/Tallinn old towns and Curonian Spit next to Klaipeda)
  • All 5 have state of the art new training facilities and all the other necessary support infrastructure
  • All 5 have international Airports
  • 3 have international passenger ferry terminals and are stops for hundreds of cruise ferries every summer
  • Excellent infrastructure is (or in Latvia's case will be) connecting the cities together
  • All three countries have low crime rates
  • All 5 cities have way more than enough hotels ranging from the simplest to the most posh 5* ones and generally a very good tourism infrastructure.
  • No border control between the countries (Shengen agreement), in case any non-Europeans might wonder
  • There would not be any issues with half empty arenas
  • And perhaps most important of all - Lithuania has an impeccable record of organizing basketball events of the highest caliber. Eurobasket 2011, with 24 teams, was by all means the most successful to date. And a 24 team Eurobasket is a competition of a higher quality (from purely sports perspective) than a 24 or 32 team World championship/World cup or whatever they call it now.

The way i see it, there's a whole lot of countries that could potentially host a basketball world cup, but only a very few of them are both willing and capable to do so.

...knows that there is some intention between FIBA Europe and FIBA World, so l think thay will choose S. American country rather then Europe countries. Like thay do with Londom olimpic qualification tornament :( Thay don't thinked what would be beter for teams, thay just done that for some intrigues - SAD.
I wouldn't worry too much about the present "tensions" with the heads of FIBA. With the rate that they're going - at pissing off the influential European basketball federations, they will not last long. ;)

Are you serious? Are all brazilians like you?

Clearly Brazil's arenas are pretty bad so your mad at PR because we have better arenas?

Lithuania has very good arenas as I said but Zalgiris Arena is not as good as the Coliseum of Puerto Rico and we got at least 3 more coliseums in PR that have more capacity than Siemens Arena(Lithuania's second arena).

Once again, are you serious?

Men it's not all about compasity. Arenas have to have good technical center - for arenas technical infrastructure elements, journalists although locker rooms ect.
But still l think, and all who are intrested in basketball, not just NBA, knows that there is some intention between FIBA Europe and FIBA World, so l think thay will choose S. American country rather then Europe countries. Like thay do with Londom olimpic qualification tornament :( Thay don't thinked what would be beter for teams, thay just done that for some intrigues - SAD.

Australia should bid for 2023.

We can use the following venues:

Sydney - Sydney Super Dome - 21,000
Perth - Perth Arena - 14,846
Melbourne - Rod Laver Arena - 14,820
Brisbane - Brisbane Entertainment Centre (or new arena) - 11,000
Adelaide - Adelaide Arena - 8,000
Hobart - Derwent Entertainment Centre - 5,400
Canberra - AIS Arena - 5,200
Darwin - New Arena - 5,000

A nationwide involvement, you scrap Darwin only if you must and replace it with either a regional Queensland or New South Wales venue. 8 venues in total to meet the needs of the expanded tournament. It can work, many venues exist, few needing minor upgrades and with at most 2 new venues to be built.

Mad? My friend, Brazilian arenas are in the same condition as PR. Except from Rios Olympic Arena which is far better.
