The first match of the Italian national basketball team was played on April 4 1926 in Milan, and it ended with a victory over France by 23-17. Italy's first participation in the Olympic Games was at the 1936 Summer Olympics in Berlin, placing seventh. At the EuroBasket 1937 Italy placed second behind Lithuania, after being beaten by just one point in the final game.
At the 1960 Summer Olympics in Rome Italy placed fourth behind USA, USSR and Brazil. In 1969 Giancarlo Primo became Italy's coach, focusing the game strategies on defense. Under his leadership Italian national team grew stronger, claiming a place among European and international best teams. In 1979 Sandro Gamba replaced Primo, leading Italy to its biggest triumphs till then: a silver at the 1980 Summer Olympics in Moscow, a gold at EuroBasket 1983 in Nantes, a bronze at EuroBasket 1985 in Stuttgart and a silver at EuroBasket 1991 in Rome.
Ettore Messina became Italy's coach in 1997, winning a silver medal at EuroBasket 1997 in Barcelona. Bogdan Tanjević replaced Messina, leading Italy to the triumph at EuroBasket 1999. The second gold medal at an European Basketball Championship arrived after beating Spain in the final game. After a ninth place at EuroBasket 2001, held in Turkey, Carlo Recalcati was called to replace Tanjević. At EuroBasket 2003, Italy was defeated by Spain in the semifinals. The victory against France in the bronze medal game guaranteed the team's qualification at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens. Italy won a silver medal in that event, stopped only in the final game by Argentina.
