Trinidad and Tobago's national women's Under-23 3x3 basketball team are set to be part of history when the island chain of Guadeloupe hosts the first edition of the
Caribbean Games that will take place from June 29th to July 3rd, 2022.
T&T's women were afforded a spot at the games through the reallocation of unused quotas for countries that did not confirm their participation.
Six (6) women's teams will participate in the 2022 tournament, with the other competing teams including British Virgin Islands, Dominican Republic, Haiti, Puerto
Rico, and hosts Guadeloupe. Positioned in Group A, T&T will battle Haiti and hosts Guadeloupe for one of two available spots in the single elimination round.
Speaking on T&T's representation at the games, NBFTT President, Ms. Caire Mitchell stated, "The NBFTT feels proud to represent Trinidad and Tobago at the Caribbean
Games 2022 - and Female representation at that! " She went on to express, "This is another milestone in the long list of firsts for TTO Basketball, having qualified for three
Olympic Sponsored events in a row - Jr. Pan Am Games 2021, Caribbean Games 2022, and the quickly approaching Commonwealth Games 2022. We look forward to not
just attending but representing TTO in an impactful way."
The 3x3 basketball competition will take place from Friday July 1st to Saturday July 2nd at the Complexe Fritz Gracchus located in Le Raizet, Les Abymes - Guadeloupe.
The official broadcast of the competition will be streamed live throughout the world via the Panam Sports Channel (app and website).
