U23 NT Baseball enters EC2023 on August 8th 

Our Young Red Hawks start the European Championship Baseball U23 in Austria on Tuesday, August 8, 2023.

After the great performance of the National Team Softball Men – a fourth place at the European Softball Men Championship two weeks ago – all eyes are now on the young baseball men. The U23 NT has been strengthened this year with an extensive coaching staff – led by Paco Garcia – and has completed two preparation programs. In 2017 and 2019, our National Team U23 Baseball finished back-to-back third at the E.C. At present there is a new generation of players who can’t wait to match or improve on these great results.

We will compete for the title of European Champion as well as a spot at the World Cup at this years U-23 Baseball European Championship from August 8-12 in Wiener Neustadt, Austria.

The top 8 European countries will participate in this E.C. and the first round is divided into two groups:
Group A – Austria, Czech Republic, England and The Netherlands.
Belgium starts in Group B together with France, Germany and Italy.

The young Red Hawks will play their first game against Germany on Tuesday, August 8 at 14:30
