Our Canadian Senior Women’s Basketball team is in Hungary this week, hoping to play their way to Paris for the 2024 Olympic Games!
After earning the top spot in their pre-Olympic Qualifying tournament in Colombia in the fall, Canada was placed into the Hungary tournament along with the Hungarian hosts, Japan and Spain. It’s a difficult group, but all Canada needs to do is place top three — so not last place — and they will be headed to the Olympics.
Canada currently sits 5th in the FIBA World rankings. Spain, who they’ll play this week, is right above them in 4th place.
