# 2013 FIBA Asia Championship for Women

The 2013 FIBA Asia Championship for Women was the qualifying tournament for FIBA Asia at the 2014 FIBA World Championship for Women in Turkey. The tournament was held in Bangkok, Thailand from October 27 to November 3.
The championship was divided into two levels: Level I and Level II. The two lowest finishers of Level I met the top two finishers of Level II to determine which teams qualify for the top Level of the 2015 Championship. The losers were relegated to Level II.
Japan defeated South Korea 65–43 in the final to capture their second title.

## Participating teams

According to FIBA Asia Rules, the number of participating teams in the FIBA Asia Championship for Women was set at twelve. In order to balance the level of competitions, the Championship shall be played in two levels: Level I and Level II. The number of the teams in Level I is set at six. The six teams of Level I are set with reference to the 2011 FIBA Asia Championship for Women. The six teams of Level II are set with reference to the first six teams registered with respect to the deadlines.
