Start of the Allwyn basketball youth championships in Cyprus

On October 3, 2026, the new season of the Allwyn youth basketball championships officially commenced in Cyprus, featuring extensive action across multiple age groups and gender categories. The first round of the K14 and K18 tournaments for both boys and girls saw dozens of matches played across various regional groups, with several teams securing victories via walkovers due to withdrawals or organizational issues.

Key highlights included the K18 Women’s league, where reigning champions Keravnos Strovolou began their title defense with a 73-49 away win against ETHA. In the K18 Men’s division, multiple clubs demonstrated strong form, with notable results such as AEK Larnaca defeating Loukis Akritas with a score of 102-37. The K14 divisions also saw significant lopsided victories, such as Keravnos Strovolou’s 64-15 win over Apollon Geriou in the girls' category and AEK Larnaca’s 117-21 success against Livadia B.C. in the boys' category.

These tournaments serve as the primary competitive platform for youth basketball development in the country under the Allwyn sponsorship banner. With the conclusion of the opening round, participating clubs are now preparing for the second round of fixtures, which is scheduled to take place on October 10, 2026.
