Brazil awarded 2027 women's U25 wheelchair basketball world championship

IWBF awarded Brazil the hosting rights for the 2027 Women's U25 Wheelchair Basketball World Championship, naming Sao Paulo's Brazilian Paralympic Training Center as the venue. The announcement is dated 14 October in the federation's news index and is corroborated by the Brazilian Paralympic Committee's report published that day. The Brazilian Wheelchair Basketball Confederation will organise the event.

The federation advertises an 11-17 June 2027 competition window, but its dedicated event page explicitly labels those dates provisional. The final competition dates and schedule depend on establishing the number of participating teams. Qualification and registration arrangements are also still to be announced after consultation with IWBF's zones, so this hosting decision does not confirm a complete field or fixture list.

Brazil previously hosted the 2025 men's U23 world championship and the 2022 Americas Cup, experience cited by IWBF in awarding the women's event. The championship provides an international stage for under-25 women within the sport's development pathway. This report records the confirmed host award; the provisional June window is not added as a newly confirmed competition event in the calendar.
