As requested by National Federations, the WBSC Europe Executive Board decided to extend the timeline for bids for the Youth Softball Championships from 2 to 4 years in advance.
As a result, it will be possible to bid for the U-18 Women’s European Championship 2025 and the U23 Men’s European Championship 2025.
Bids are also open for the U-22 Women’s European Championship 2026, the U-15 Women’s European Championship 2026, and the U-16 & U-18 Men’s European Championships 2026.
All open softball events can be found on the 2023-2026 calendar.
The bid form is updated including the newly added European Championships. Bids are welcome up until February 9, 2023.
One bid was already received for the U-18 Women’s European Championship 2025, and it will be reviewed during the WBSC Europe Congress 2023.
