The 2016 FIBA Europe Under-18 Championship is the scheduled 33rd edition of the FIBA Europe Under-18 Championship. The competition was to take place in Samsun, Turkey, from 30 July to 7 August 2016 but was postponed indefinitely due to political unrest in the country at the time.[1] On 30 September 2016, FIBA decided that the tournament will take place from 16 to 22 December 2016.[2][3] The top five teams will qualify for the 2017 FIBA Under-19 World Championship.
