# Basketball at the 2024 Summer Olympics – Women's 3x3 qualification

The women's 3x3 qualification for the Olympic basketball tournament took place between November 2022 and June 2024, allocating eight teams for the final tournament.
Three quota places were awarded to the top-ranked teams, including the host nation France, based on the total points calculated in the FIBA 3x3 Rankings of 1 November 2023, with the remainder attributed to the eligible NOCs in separate wildcard tournaments (two winners of the universality-driven Olympic qualifying tournaments and the top three of the FIBA Olympic Qualifying Tournament).

## Method

Eight teams will participate in the women's basketball tournament, with each NOC sending a roster of three players and a substitute.

### Host nation

As the host nation, France reserved a quota place in the men's 3x3 basketball subject to the FIBA 3x3 Ranking of 1 November 2023. If the host country failed to enter the team within the ranking list, the number of teams qualified through the regular process would be increased accordingly.

### Qualification via world rankings

Similar to the 2021 format, the top three teams (two if France obtained the host quota place in the women's tournament) on the FIBA 3x3 women's basketball ranking list on 1 November 2023, qualified for the Olympics. These rankings were also used to determine entrants to both the OQT and UOQT.

### Qualification via the wild card tournaments

The five remaining quota places were attributed to the eligible NOCs, including the host nation France if unqualified, through three separate wildcard tournaments: two universality-driven Olympic qualifying tournaments (UOQT) and the FIBA Olympic qualifying tournament (OQT). Teams were selected based on the following criteria:
* UOQT 1 – The top eight eligible NOCs, including the tournament host, from the FIBA world ranking list, participated in the first leg of the UOQT with the winner obtaining a direct spot for Paris 2024.
* UOQT 2 – The highest-ranked eligible NOC in the standings from each of the 2023 FIBA Continental Cup (Asia and Oceania, Americas, Europe, and Africa), the tournament host vying for qualification, and the host nation France, if unqualified, participated in the second leg of the UOQT with the winner obtaining a direct spot for Paris 2024. If the eight-team roster remained vacant, teams would be selected from a maximum of eight highest-ranked eligible NOCs based on the standings from 2023 FIBA 3x3 World Cup.
* OQT – The sixteen highest-ranked eligible NOCs based on the FIBA global standings, including the tournament host and host nation France, if unqualified, participated in the FIBA OQT with the top three securing the remaining berths for Paris 2024. The sixteen-team roster in the OQT had to field a minimum of two NOCs to a maximum of ten from the same continental zone (Asia and Oceania, Americas, Europe, and Africa).
