The FIBA 3x3 Under-18 World Cup is an under-18 basketball tournament run by the International Basketball Federation (FIBA) since 2011. The tournament was known as the FIBA 3x3 Under-18 World Championships until the 2016 edition.

History

The event was held for the first time in Rimini, Italy, in September 2011 and has been held annually since then.

The tournament was not held in 2014 due to 3x3 basketball being an event at the 2014 Summer Youth Olympics.[1]
