05 — Press

Federation network carried the story across nine markets

Coverage was carried by the international federation network, five national federations, host-market outlets and international wire pickup.

Federation network drove volume.

FIBA published nine articles across the World Tour and Women's Series, from pool draw through MVP feature. The Bonn victory piece was the single highest-trafficked news item on the event site.

Five national federations covered their own teams.

The Italian, Portuguese, French, Dutch and US federations each published preview and result coverage in local language, extending reach into markets with no domestic broadcast partner.

Wire pickup reached Asia.

ANTARA News in Indonesia carried the Bonn result, evidence of the story travelling beyond the participating markets.

Coverage followed participation into every competing market

Twenty-five verified articles across nine markets. Coverage tracked participation: every market with a semi-finalist or a national team in the Women's Series produced local-language coverage.

Specialist depth today, mainstream headroom next

Federation and specialist channels carried the story with real depth and consistency across nine markets. Mainstream national desks in the Netherlands, Germany and Serbia are the clear next audience to unlock, and the existing coverage base gives that push a strong platform.
