Hanthony Coello, President of the Venezuelan Basketball Federation: "Since November 2022, the FIBA Plus program has helped our Federation to organize and systematize the priorities of the plan we conceived for the growth of Venezuelan basketball. This was strengthening our governance, promoting the practice of basketball, adapting the national competition system, improving the technical sphere, and being a reference as a sports brand in our country. Once again, I thank FIBA and its experts for trusting Venezuela to make it and be part of this FIBA Plus support."
James Lee, President of the Basketball Association of the Northern Mariana Islands: “The FIBA Plus workshop was super enjoyable.

Samy Picard, President of the Federation of Luxembourg: "We are very grateful that FIBA has chosen to support the Luxembourg Basketball Federation through the FIBA Plus Strategic Planning support. We are currently experiencing a generational shift in our federation which presents a great opportunity to work on a new strategy for the coming years. The workshop was intense but very productive and we had many great exchanges. We are very optimistic that this process will take the Luxembourgish basketball community to the next level."
Erika Dy, Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipinas, Inc Executive Director: ”We wanted to take advantage of the FIBA Plus Project Planning support in the area of Grassroots Basketball to help propel our federation to the next level. Although basketball is very popular in our country, our grassroots program has always lacked a framework that will allow our young players to understand their pathway to playing elite basketball. FIBA Plus will help us build this framework.”
