The two-day FIBA-sanctioned competition brought together 3x3 basketball players from across the country and provided them an opportunity to compete for official FIBA ranking points.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
3x3 basketball is played on a half-court with three players per team and features a 12-second shot clock. Games last 10 minutes or end earlier if a team reaches 21 points, making it a fast-paced format focused on skill, technique and quick decision-making.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The format made its Olympic debut at Tokyo 2020 and was also part of the Paris 2024 Games. It is set to expand from eight to 12 teams at the Los Angeles 2028 Olympics.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
South Delhi\u2019s title triumph also earned the team an opportunity to compete in the qualifying draw of the FIBA 3x3 World Series in Mongolia. It marks a pathway for the domestic competition\u2019s players to move towards the international 3x3 circuit.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The tournament featured intense contests under the fast-paced 3x3 format, with teams playing within a 10-minute game window and a 12-second shot clock. The knockout stages produced closely contested quarterfinals and semifinals before South Delhi and Bulandshahr met in the title clash.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
While South Delhi lifted the inaugural trophy, Bulandshahr\u2019s run also highlighted the depth of 3x3 talent available in the country.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
