History

Under-17 World Cup

Argentina qualified for the 2010 FIBA Under-17 World Championship for Women, the inaugural edition where it finished 9th, better than any other team from South America.

Americas Under-16 Championship

The team qualified on six occasions. Argentina's best performance was 3rd place in 2009 and 2017.

In 2021, Angelina Giacone stood out as one of the more versatile players in the tournament averaging 7 points and 7.7 rebounds per game, but it was a team effort defensively and Delfina Cergneux led the charge on the boards to keep Argentina in every game.[2]

South American U17 Championship

At the 2017 event in Bolivia, Argentina was the dominant team as they won all games by double-digits, including several blowouts.
