Basketball Federation of Kosova

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Basketball Federation of Kosova (Albanian: Federata e Basketbollit e Kosovës, Serbian: Košarkaška Federacija Kosova and officially in English: Basketball Federation of Kosova [1][2]) is the governing body of basketball in Kosovo.

It organizes the Siguria Superleague and the Kosova Basketball Cup. It has also fielded a team which has represented Kosovo in international friendlies.

The Basketball Federation of Kosovo has thus far been denied entry into the International Basketball Federation (FIBA), the latest rejection taking place in Beijing at the annual FIBA Central Board meeting on 26 April 2008, with the reason: "Kosovo has not fulfilled all required conditions".^[1]
