We are proud to announce that FIBA, the International Basketball Federation, has appointed Schelde Sports as a FIBA Global Supplier for backstop units until 2028!

Since 2014, we have built a strong and enduring partnership with FIBA, becoming their trusted provider of backstop units for some of basketball’s most prestigious global events. It has been our honor to equip the FIBA Basketball World Cups (2014, 2019, 2023), EuroBaskets (2015, 2022), and the Olympic Games in Rio, Tokyo, and Paris with our premium backstops. Our dedication to quality and innovation ensures that the world’s top athletes compete under the best possible conditions.

In addition to this, since 2013 we have proudly served as the official global backstop supplier for FIBA’s 3x3 competitions and events, including the FIBA World Tour events and the 3x3 World Championships. We are proud to play a central role in the rapid growth of this dynamic sport. Most recently, our collaboration with FIBA extended to the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, further solidifying our reputation as a leader in basketball equipment. This partnership reflects not only our expertise but also our commitment to the global advancement of basketball.

Ron Larmit, Manager of Schelde Sports, expressed his pride, stating: "We are deeply honored to continue our partnership with FIBA as the official global backstop supplier. Having served as the global technical partner for over a decade, the opportunity to extend our collaboration through another Olympic cycle is a tremendous acknowledgment of the dedication and effort of everyone involved in making this partnership a resounding success. With Schelde Sports backstops set to be featured at all major FIBA events in the coming years, we are once again poised to demonstrate our exceptional capabilities to the world."
