The 2015 IWBF Men's European Championship was the 22nd edition of the European Wheelchair Basketball Championship held in Worcester, Great Britain from 28 August to 6 September 2015. The tournament also took place during the women's European championship as well.
Twelve teams entered the tournament with the Czech Republic and Israel competing in the tournament after being promoted from Division B in 2014. The teams were separated into two groups of six with the top four teams from each group qualifying through to the knockout stage while the bottom two competed to stay off relegation. The remaining eight teams competed in a knockout format until the top two teams made the final.
Each of the 12 teams selected a squad of 12 players for the tournament.
Athletes are given an eight-level-score specific to wheelchair basketball, ranging from 0.5 to 4.5. Lower scores represent a higher degree of disability[1] The sum score of all players on the court cannot exceed 14.
