Nigeria’s U-18 Basketball Teams Advance To Quarter-Finals At FIBA Africa Qualifiers
Nigeria’s U-18 boys’ and girls’ basketball teams have both secured spots in the quarter-finals of the FIBA Africa U-18 World Cup qualifiers, currently underway in South Africa.
The Nigerian girls’ team earned their place as one of the best third-placed teams in the group stage. They will face Egypt in the quarter-finals on Wednesday, in Pretoria.
The boys’ team also progressed to the quarter-finals, continuing their strong performance in the tournament. With only two teams set to represent Africa in the FIBA U-18 World Cup in Switzerland, the stakes are high as both Nigerian teams strive to secure their spots.
The upcoming matches are pivotal as Nigeria’s young basketball stars aim to showcase their talent on the continental stage and clinch a place in the global tournament.
