In perioada 26 august- 6 septembrie, se desfasoara in Puerto Rico , in complexul Roberto Clemente Coliseum din San Juan, 2009 FIBA Americas Championship.
Vor participa 10 echipe structurate in 2 grupe:
Grupa A: Mexic, Uruguay, Canada, Insulele Virgine, Puerto Rico
Grupa B: Panama, Venezuela, Brazilia, Republica Dominicana, Argentina
Semifinalistele acestei competitii se vor califica automat la Campionatul Mondial din Turcia 2010. Cea mai puternica echipa din zona Americii, SUA- campioana en-titre a Americii, castigatoare a 2007 FIBA America Champioship in finala contra Argentinei(118-81) va absenta de la competitia din 2009! Echipa lui Le Bron James si Carmelo Antony este calificata automat la 2010 FIBA World Championship, datorita castigarii titlului olimpic la Beijing 2008.
Ca un fapt oarecum inedit, Puerto Rico, in calitate de tara organizatoare a avut posibilitatea de a-si alege grupa din care vrea sa faca parte dupa ce celelate 8 echipe au fost repartizate (mai putin Argentina) si astfel tara central- americana a ales grupa A, Argentina fiind repartizata automat in grupa B. La fel se va intampla si in cazul in care Puerto Rico va avansa mai departe din grupe, reprezentativa ţării gazdă va avea dreptul de a alege ordinea în care să întâlnească adversarii calificaţi din cealaltă grupă.

In perioada 08 - 18 iulie, se desfasoara in Crikvenica, Makarska si Zadar(Croatia), Campionatul European U 20, DIVIZIA A. Sistemul de desfasurare a acestui campionat este similar campioanatelor mondiale sau europene de handbal sau a campionatului european de baschet feminin. Astfel in 4 grupe preliminare(A, B, C, D) cate 4 echipe, vor juca fiecare cu fiecare, dupa care primele trei din fiecare grupa se vor califica in alte 2 grupe(E, F) a cate a 6 echipe. In aceste grupe E si F, fiecare vor juca 3 meciuri. In clasamentul grupelor E, F se va lua in considerare si rezultatele din primele grupe(A, B, C, D) mai putin rezultatul cu ultima clasata din acele 4 grupe. Astfel dupa cele 3 runde din grupele de calificare, primele 4 din fiecare grupa vor merge mai departe in sferturi, ultimele 2 vor juca meciuri de clasament 9-12. Urmeaza meciuri eliminatorii in sferturi, semifinale si dupa aceea marea finala.
