Roster Announced for FIBA 3x3 U23 World Cup 2026
TORONTO (September 15, 2026) – Canada Basketball announced today the 3x3 U23 Women’s National Team roster that will represent Canada at the FIBA 3x3 U23 World Cup 2026 in Wuhan, China, taking place September 15-19.
Canada earned its spot in the tournament after going undefeated at the FIBA 3x3 Youth Nations League – Americas South in July.
The Canadian roster features Mary-Anna Asare (Pickering, Ont.), Cyanne Coe (Bolton, Ont.), Hailey Franco-Deryck (Etobicoke, Ont.) and Myriam Koné (Edmonton, Alta.). Asare, Coe and Franco-Deryck competed at the Youth Nations League in July, with Coe and Franco-Deryck helping Canada secure its World Cup berth. Koné will make her 3x3 debut after attending Senior Women’s National Team training camps in Montreal and Victoria this summer.
3x3 Senior Women’s National Team member Katherine Plouffe will serve as the team’s consultant.
“The 3x3 U23 World Cup is a result of the effort and performance of our athletes throughout the summer,” said Steve Baur, General Manager and Vice President of Women’s High Performance at Canada Basketball. “Our 3x3 pool had a great summer to earn this opportunity, and we’re looking forward to competing on the world stage. Adding Katherine to the staff provides valuable perspective from the highest levels of 3x3 and complements the experience of our athletes as our program continues to move forward.”
Canada enters the tournament as the 18th seed and has been drawn into Pool B alongside Netherlands, Czechia, Poland and Chinese Taipei.
The Canadians will open pool play on September 15 against Czechia at 10:00 p.m. ET before facing Poland at 12:55 a.m. ET. Canada returns to action on September 17 against Chinese Taipei at 10:25 p.m. ET and Netherlands at 12:30 a.m. ET.
