The 2020 FIBA Under-17 Basketball World Cup (Bulgarian: 2020 Световна купа по баскетбол FIBA до 17 години) would have been an international basketball competition held in Sofia, Bulgaria. It would have been the sixth edition of the FIBA Under-17 Basketball World Cup. Sixteen national teams were scheduled to compete in the tournament.[1] Bulgaria previously bid for the 2018 edition but lost to Argentina.
