The Men’s Baseball Confederation Cup was known as CEB Cup until last year. Due to the merger between the Confederation of European Baseball (CEB) and the European Softball Federation (ESF) into a combined governing body for baseball and softball in Europe, WBSC Europe, the name of the tournament was renamed into Confederation Cup. Last year Draci Brno won the CEB Cup, earning a spot for the Czech Republic in the European Champions Cup for 2022.
Live streaming and live scoring will be provided for all 15 games in the Confederation Cup 2022. Live streaming will be available through the YouTube channel of the hosting Rouen Huskies. Live scoring can be found on www.wbsceurope.org.
