As mentioned earlier, it is doubtful whether In the group stage of the Euroleague Women’s Basketball Championship Which will be the galactic squad that automatically gets a place.
In the 16-team EL group stage, as announced by FIBA, 12 places are automatically sold out without qualifiers. In the ranking of countries, among the countries with live membership in FIBÁ, the first and second places (Turkey and Spain) have two teams each, from the third to the tenth. (France, Hungary, Italy, Czech Republic, Poland, Belgium, Israel, Latvia) can add 1-1 to the main table.
By default, this place goes to the champion in Hungary, but the start of Sopron Basket cannot be taken for granted. Last year’s Euroleague winner should have notified the National Union of Hungarian Basketball Players (MKOSZ) by Friday last week whether he will participate in the EL in the 2023/24 season, but according to our information this did not happen, according to the news, they still They work with the people of Sopron to raise the financial budget needed for the most important continental series.
Thus, it is still unknown which Hungarian will take the guaranteed place in the main EL table. If Sopron does not start, this quota can be awarded to Serco UNI Győr, the silver medalist of the tournament, at the MKOSZ meeting on June 27.
Possible absence of Sopron Basket from EL, a DVTK Hon Therm It can also affect his team, because in this case the red and white will move forward in the qualifying classification, and it is not excluded that – if not all countries with quotas, will send a team to the EL, and not all those who have earned the right to go to the playoffs will practice Their right to participate, and that Dusker would enter the group stage of the Euroleague without qualifying.
According to the news, there are currently 8 clubs that, based on their results on the field, have the right to start at the main table, and they are taking advantage of this, and 11 teams have been determined to enter the playoffs. If these numbers remain until the entry deadline of July 5, a maximum of 6 teams will have to participate in the playoffs.
