Welcome to the Landolt Cup - Yverdon-les-Bains
Welcome to Yverdon-les-Bains, a well-known Swiss town that has been hosting its traditional basketball tournament since 1974. Since 2018, this historical tournament has taken an international momentum. The organising committee took the opportunity to give it a name: "The Landolt Cup".
The Landolt Cup is becoming a reference in Europe for its quality of reception and organisation. As a proof of that, the winning teams come back very willingly to defend their title. The city's central geography, in Switzerland as well as in Europe, provides an easy access by air (50 minutes away from Geneva airport), by train or, of course, by car. The hotel comfort of the Grand Hôtel and its Thermal Center make Yverdon-les-Bains a destination appreciated by the participants. Between lake and mountains, the quality of life and air make the teams' stay during the tournament an even more pleasant moment.
New format
2022 will be the year of the launch of a new formula for this historic tournament, which will take place from September 7 to 10. Indeed, the committee took advantage of the COVID break and two blank editions to bring the tournament to a new dimension. The proof is in the numbers as 6 teams will play over 4 days to produce 9 games for the pleasure of the spectators. We are convinced that the stands of the magnificent Salle des Isles will once again be filled to witness a basketball show of great quality. This will be a great opportunity for our local elite teams who will have to compete against the best European teams.
Mini U12 tournament
The Landolt Cup is also about youth and mini basketball. A novelty with the international U12 tournament which will take place on the weekend of 27 and 28 May 2023.
