The 2020 FISU World University Championships has been postponed following a decision of the Federation Internationale du port (FISU).

The tournament was planned for Katowice, Poland in October (10/15) this year but has been pushed back due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

FISU has decided to postpone and re-schedule all of their events up to November 2020 following discussions with the host countries.

The last edition of the FISU Worlds was held in Elsita, Russia on September 2018.

Ireland’s Ricky Nesbitt (Holy Family BC/Dundalk IT), claimed bronze at the tournament.
