In west Asia, the 2023 FISU

Basketball was held in Doha,
Qatar from 10-12 November.
This 7th edition of the event
featured 12 women teams and
12 men teams that competed
for the top honors over the three
days. As the newest member
of FISU and AUSF, Qatar has
set a high benchmark for
other NUSFs as the Organising

During the just concluded
FISU General Assembly held in
Geneva, Switzerland from 17-18
November, candidates from Asia
have been elected to 8 positions
in the FISU Executive Committee
for the term 2023-2027, thanks
to the concerted efforts of
all Asian members and the
generous support of our fellow
friends from EUSA and other
CUSFs. The result of the election
is not only an honor, but also a
glorious responsibility, which
will inspire everyone to work
harder for the development of
university sports worldwide.It was also encouraging to
see much closer ties were
strengthened between
AUSF and other continental
associations through the regular
exchange of visits to each other
this year. Such collaborations
not only enhanced engagementbetween the federations, but
also strengthened the friendship
among the member federations
affiliated with AUSF and EUSA,
FASU, FISU America and FISU
Oceania. On November 19 in
Geneva, on the occasion of the
FISU Oceania General Assembly,
AUSF, FISU Oceania, and FISU
consolidated their collaboration
through the signing of a
Memorandum of Understanding
(MOU). The partnership between
AUSF and FISU Oceania
has steadily evolved since
the inception in 2016. This
collaborative framework serves
as a blueprint for joint efforts,
outlining the guiding principles
and objectives under the
auspices of FISU.PLEASE SEE
