BTV takes you through another important event of the FIBA-Asia
Championship when the groupings of the nations are determined at the
draw on June 6 at the Manila Hotel.
The draw – which will be supervised by FIBA-Asia Secretary General Hagop Khajirian – will divide the 16 participating nations of the tournament into four groups of four. After the first three groups have been formed, the Philippines – being the host country – will get the chance to pick 13th and decide which group they will play in. The fate of the remaining three teams will be decided after.
Among those that will be present during the drawing of pools will be Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipinas (SBP) president and Local Organizing Committee (LOC) chairman Manny V. Pangilinan, SBP executive director Barrios, and LOC deputy chief executive officer Moying Martelino.
National team coach Chot Reyes will not attend the occasion due to Gilas-Pilipinas’ training in Lithuania, but assistant coaches Ryan Gregorio and Nash Racela will be present at the draw.
The FIBA-Asia Championship - set to take place in Manila from August 1 to 11 – will serve as the qualifiers for the 2014 World Cup in Spain. The games of the tournament will be broadcasted live on BTV, in partnership with Sports 5.
Witness the entire drawing process of the FIBA-Asia Championship groupings on June 6 (Thursday), live on BTV at 1:30 pm.
