3XCup and the 3XTour form Basketball Victoria’s 3x3 pathway for associations and schools. All basketball Victoria (BV) events are run on the FIBA3x3 event system and every event on the FIBA system accrues FIBA3x3 ranking points. 3x3 is growing in Australia and by having Victoria players participating in these vents now and accruing points, it puts them in the best possible position when these chances do arise.
3XTour
The 3XTour has been designed as the representative competition for 3x3 in Victoria. This brand-new concept is based on the FIBA3x3 World Tour structure and will give teams more opportunities to compete for their association in the 3x3 format. The 3XTour offers players the chance to compete in multiple once day events (known as tours stops), earning individual and team FIBA ranking points along the way without needing to commit to weekly matches. The competition finishes with the Tour Final, bringing together the top ranked teams across the age groups to compete to be Victorian Junior 3XTour Champions.

3XCup
3XCup from a club perspective starts at the association level. We are encouraging association to run their own event in the format that best suits them; whether it is indoor, outdoor, as a league or a one / multi day tournament (just as many have done already), but now there is something more to play for – progression! Teams will be able to qualify from their local event representing their domestic club or association wearing their club colours into Basketball Victoria’s ‘State Qualifying’ tournaments in the July holidays. There’ll be State Qualifiers around Victoria, of which teams will be able to attend the one or all, and from each event, teams will qualify for the Victoria 3XCup State Championships held in the September holidays and compete for the title of Victoria’s ‘State Champions!’
3XCup Schools
The 3XCup school’s pathway starts with our qualifying days, with schools being able to enter one or multiple qualifying days across dates in March-May with teams qualifying into the Schools State Championships in term 2. Secondary schools’ events have three age groups (U15, U17 and U20) which falls in line with Basketball Australia’s age groups while the Primary competition has the senior age group (Year 5 & 6).
Registrations are now open for all schools 3XCup Qualifying days for 2025.
Please see the graphic for dates and venues of all the qualifying days as well as the State Championships dates in early term 2.
