National coach Silvain Lautié has finally selected 12 players who lack a local group, will have to directly join Maputo the Mozambican capital.
LIST OF 12 PRESELECTED FOR ELIMINATORY AFRICAN OLYMPIC QUALIFYING TOURNAMENT AREA:
TOUTY GANDEGA (ANGERS, FRANCE), KOUTA CAMARA (FRANCE), GOUNDO DIALLO (STE SAVINE BASKET, FRANCE), MEIYA TIRERA (VALENCIA BC, SPAIN), MARIAM ALOU COULIBALY (LANDERNEAU BRITTANY BASKET, FRANCE), KADIDIA MAIGA (DAKAR UNIVERSITY CLUB , SENEGAL), DJÉNÉBA N’DIAYE (MOROCCO), NASSIRA TRAORÉ (FRANCE), AISSATA B MAIGA (AS POLICE, MALI), KANKOU COULIBALY (SAINT AMAND HAINAUT-BASKET), Christine Dakouo (Djoliba AC), Assetou Traoré (Djoliba AC).
The Africa Zone pre-qualifiers for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics will bring together the top six ranked countries of the latest AfroBasket Women’s. The teams were divided into two groups.
Group A: Nigeria, Mozambique, Democratic Republic of Congo
Group B: Senegal, Mali, Angola
The Africa Zone pre-qualifiers for the Tokyo Olympics will be held from November 14 to 17, in a venue that remains to be determined. Senegal and Mozambique appear to be potential candidates for hosting the competition.
The teams will play a tournament in round-robin format, the winner of Group A then facing the second in Group B, while the winner of Group B will be opposed to the second in Group A on behalf of the semi-finals.
The two winners of the semi-finals will not play in the final, as they will automatically qualify for the 16-nation FIBA Women’s Olympic Qualification Tournament (TQOF), for which the teams will be divided into four groups. The matches will take place in February 2020.
The top three teams from each of these four TQOF will qualify for the Tokyo 2020 Olympics.
The pre-qualifiers for the Tokyo Olympics are one of the great novelties of the redesign of the FIBA qualification system, which also changes the way of qualifying for the next FIBA Women’s World Cup.
