The 2016 FIBA World Olympic Qualifying Tournament for Women was a women's basketball tournament that consisted of 12 national teams, where the top five teams earned a place in the 2016 Summer Olympics basketball tournament. It was held from 13 to 19 June 2016.[1] France hosted the tournament in the city of Nantes.

Belarus, China, France, Spain and Turkey qualified for the 2016 Summer Olympics.[2]

Format

The 12 teams were divided into four groups (Groups A–D) for the preliminary round. The top two teams from each group qualified for the knockout round. All four quarterfinal winners advanced to the medal rounds; the four quarterfinal losers played two rounds to allocate the final slot.

Hosts selection

On 26 September 2015, FIBA announced that France and Spain were the candidates to host the women's qualification tournaments.[3] The deadline to submit the final candidature was set on 11 November, following which an evaluation of all bids would take place. France was announced as host of the Olympic qualifier on 19 January 2016.[4]
