Team Novi Sad, from Serbia, won the FIBA 3×3 World Tour Final 2014, the third edition of the pinnacle of FIBA 3×3 competition network, where the best 12 teams in the world met to battle for a 20.000 USD prize. At the tournament held in Sendai, Japan, attended also Mr. Khalid Al Hanaei, the Chairman of the 3×3 Committee from the UAE Basketball Association.

The first steps of the 3×3 basketball in UAE were made this summer, during the FIBA U17 World Championships, when two tournaments were organized in Dubai with the support of the UAE Basketball Association.

With the prospect of developing even more this spectacular and dynamic basketball discipline around the golf countries in general and in UAE in particular, the visit of Mr. Khalid AL Hanaei was a successful one, and included a short meeting with the FIBA general secretary, Mr. Patrick Baumann.
