Since FIBA organized the entire Western Hemisphere west of the Atlantic Ocean under one zone, countries from North America, Central America, the Caribbean and South America compete in this tournament.

The U.S. women's basketball team doesn't typically participate in the tournament as it usually qualifies for major tournaments by virtue of winning the World Cup/Olympics.
