Despite the possibility of finishing in 13th place, which would normally guarantee staying in Division A, Israel's U16 girls' national team will play in Division B next year. This is due to the fact that Bulgaria, the host of the next championship, is also positioned within the 13th-16th place range. Israel lost to Lithuania 69-80 this Wednesday.

Daniela Reuven's squad impressed in their tournament debut, anchored by a dominant second quarter where they held their opponents to just two points. Michal Abudraham led the way for the blue-and-whites with 16 points and 9 rebounds.
