Centrobasket
Template:Use dmy dates Template:Short description Script error: No such module "Infobox".Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters". The Centrobasket is a FIBA-sponsored international basketball tournament where national teams from Central America and the Caribbean participate. These countries make up the Central American and Caribbean Basketball Confederation (CONCENCABA). The top three or four Women's National teams typically earn berths to the FIBA Women's AmeriCup, from which they can qualify for the FIBA Basketball World Cup or Summer Olympics. Teams qualify for these tournaments by finishing high (usually first or second place) in the previous Centrobasket or by placing high at the FIBA COCABA Championship for Mexico and the seven Central American countries and at the FIBA CBC Championship for the 23 Caribbean countries. In total, 31 countries have an opportunity to qualify their national teams for Centrobasket, yet all of them do not enter teams regularly.
History
The tournament is typically held every two years. Initially played in odd-numbered years, it transitioned to even-numbered years starting in 2004. The event was not held in 1979 or 1983, but with those exceptions, it has occurred biennially, including consecutive editions in 2003 and 2004 due to the calendar change.
The tournament features eight teams, divided into two groups. The first round follows a round-robin format, after which teams compete in classification matches to determine final standings.
Puerto Rico and Panama are historically the most successful teams in the competition. Although Puerto Rico often fields a secondary squad, it has consistently earned medals in nearly every edition it has entered, underscoring its depth and dominance in the region.
