Fiji women's national basketball team is the national basketball team from Fiji, administered by the Fiji Amateur Basketball Federation.[1] They played in the 2007 Oceania Championship in Dunedin.

History

Due to their gold medal win at the 2015 Pacific Games, Fiji was given a berth at the 2017 FIBA Asia Cup. After the final match against American Samoa at the Pacific Games, Fiji did not play a competitive match until their FIBA Asia Cup debut.[2]

At most Fiji could use eight players out of the twelve named for the 2017 FIBA Asia Cup, due to the unavailability of the four other players.[2] Fiji finished sixth in the tournament.[3]
