The inaugural Taiwan Super Cup BP Basketball Championship kicked off on Day 40 of season 98.
A total of 25 Taiwan teams eagerly signed up for the competition, representing various levels of international leagues from WL2 to WL5. The tournament is conducted under the principles of fairness, impartiality, and transparency, aiming to provide an opportunity for teams from different levels to compete on the same stage. Since its inception, the event has garnered significant attention from the Taiwan community.
Considering the diverse backgrounds of participating teams, the organizers have established a set of rules to attract more teams while avoiding significant disparities in team strength:
Each team is limited to registering 10 players.
Player’s RT must not exceed 250.
The average RT of the 10 registered players must not exceed 220.
Each player must play for at least 10 minutes in each match.
While these regulations primarily encourage teams from WL4 and WL5 to participate, some teams from WL2 and WL3 with insufficient bench depth are unable to join. It is hoped that all teams will actively expand their player rosters in the future to enhance the diversity of players. As this is the first edition of the tournament, the rules may be subject to revisions. Therefore, Taiwan teams interested in participating are encouraged to seize the opportunity and actively join!
Additionally, the Taiwan Federation provides a subsidy of 100 credits per team per game to alleviate the financial burden on participating teams.
The organizers conducted a live online draw for the schedule on day 35 to ensure fairness and transparency. The tournament adopts a single-elimination format, with rewards for each victory. The first round of 9 matches commenced yesterday, with 9 teams advancing to the 2nd round. They will compete against the 7 seeded teams in the Round of top16 on day 43. The final champion will emerge on day 52, with the champion receiving a prize of 1000 credits. Who will claim the championship prize? Let's wait and see!

Taiwan Shocks Basketball World: U-18 Tournament Recap
In a hoop-happy showdown that kept fans on the edge of their seats, Taiwan snagged the gold at the U-18 Basketball World Championship, pulling off a jaw-dropping upset against tournament giants China in the finals 99 - 87. This victory catapulted Taiwan to the top of the basketball world, marking them the new champions.
China, cruising through the tournament undefeated until the final clash, seemed destined for glory. But Taiwan had other plans, flipping the script in a thrilling finale that left spectators in awe. With slick moves and unyielding determination, Taiwan emerged victorious, etching their name in basketball history.
First bronze ever for Poland
Poland clinched the bronze, while Spain and France secured the fourth and fifth spots, respectively, in the intense battle for supremacy.
"After a great run with Poland securing bronze, coach Matis commented, 'First of all big congrats for Taiwan for winning in the final with China. Congrats for both teams, great effort from them,'" noted coach Matis. "My team did a really good job. Was so close in the semifinal, but we lost to China in overtime. We had a really tough game for third place against Spain. They defended really tight during the first 3 quarters, we had no easy shots. Finally, in the last quarter, we started to hit 3’s and that was the key." He added, "The biggest surprise? I think France was that surprising team. They almost won with China and Spain in group matches... My team's most impressive? We perform as a team."
French coach alissa42 shared their thoughts, saying, "Turpin was excellent, he is having a big tournament... The big surprise is the absence of Lithuania." Discussing potential improvements, they added, "In terms of improvements, I would like fatigue to be controlled a little better, because if the player is used a lot by his club, it is complicated to give him a lot of playing time in the national team."
Italy's strong run, finishing 6th, also caught attention. Coach Gianlukk praised player Tiranti, stating, "The player who most impressed me on my team was certainly Tiranti, the Italian MVP." Reflecting on the tournament, Gianlukk expressed surprise at Taiwan's victory and suggested greater participation in the competition among users who are not directly interested.
Biggest surprises
However, the tournament wasn't short of surprises. Ivory Coast, ranked 18th coming in, defied the odds to claim the 12th spot, showcasing their tenacity on the court. Italy, originally ranked 10th, exceeded expectations by finishing sixth, leaving fans astonished.
In a twist of fate, Hong Kong, expected to perform better as the fifth-strongest team, settled for ninth place, while the United States, ranked seventh, stumbled to a disappointing 13th position.
Hosts Argentina, holding the eighth spot in the rankings, fell short of their home advantage, finishing in eighth place. Meanwhile, Greece, predicted to land in the 13th spot, faced a harsh reality, ending up in the 18th position.
The tournament not only showcased the exhilarating talent of young basketball stars but also proved that in the world of hoops, anything can happen. With Taiwan's stunning victory and unexpected turns throughout the event, this U-18 Basketball World Championship will be remembered as a testament to the unpredictable nature of the game.
Division 2
Lithuania Dominates
Lithuania were victorious in the U-18 Division 2 Basketball Tournament. Despite their relegation from the first division due to past mismanagement, Lithuania swept through the competition undefeated, demonstrating that they could have easily contended for medals in the top tier. Players like Geraldas Karsius and Pijus Kulikonis showcased outstanding skill. Coach dwyane3 stated, "I am most happy for my own player Geraldas Karsius, who managed to hit 75% of his 3-pointers attempted. Also, I am happy because I reached my goal – to win gold with Lithuania U18." He also shared his thoughts on coaching in the future, saying, "I have never coached high level NT in top tier tournament, so that would be nice, however, I am sure there are more keen managers who would be up for the job."
Canada secured the 2nd spot, showcasing their consistent performance throughout the tournament. The stellar performances of players like Charlebois and Boucher contributed to Canada's success, setting a promising trajectory for future competitions. Saruman commented, "My team was 'best of the others'... Lithuania was simply impossible to play." He also outlined his future plans, saying, "My idea for season 100 is to take another team in second division and try to reach promotion. It’s the kind of challenge I really like."
Czech Republic claimed 3rd , coach Jardabudy expressed satisfaction with the team's achievements and hinted at future coaching opportunities. Jardabudy noted, "I was surprised by how well Bohachik was complemented by solid three-pointers – especially Bondy and Koller." He also expressed his ambitions, saying, "I will definitely consider managing U-18 again. I would like to coach one of the national teams every season."
The surprising Scandinavians
Norway emerged as the dark horse, surprising many by clinching 4th and earning promotion to the first division. TB313 remarked, "I was really impressed with Alver, and Thelle. They were my powerhouses." He expressed his hopes for the future, saying, "I can only hope that our scouting will keep improving and the nation can be a contender. Well done to Sweden!
Portugal finished in a solid fifth place, coach Sakota commented, "Our team finished 5th while it was 4th in strength. Hernani Antunes really surprised me, I hope all of them continue to grow well."
Followed by Bulgaria in sixth, highlighting their competitive spirit. Bulgaria's coach Jopencjusz reflected on their performance, saying, "Definitely most impressed with our main guy, Stovan Gruev... Biggest surprise for sure is Sweden, qwazy did great job with this roster, 7th place for them is very good result."
The spotlight went to unexpected Sweden - ranked 16th coming into the tournament, defied the odds by finishing 7th, surpassing all expectations. Qwazy commented, "As I am limited with the talent I have with the local Sweden team, I was trying to use the best players as much as possible... I am planning to continue doing this and would like to get even greater achievements for sure."
Conversely, Peru, initially touted as one of the strongest teams with a fifth-place ranking, finished ninth. The manager did not choose to comment further.
The tournament was not without its share of off-court drama. Australia, the host nation, encountered turmoil before the competition even began. Failing to secure a coach in time and falling short of legal requirements, finding themselves rock bottom.
