The WBSC Europe-sanctioned "May 2023 Friendship Series" is set to take place between the national teams of Czechia and The Netherlands.

The women's softball national teams of Netherlands and Czechia will play a series of four friendly games from May 22nd to May 24th, 2023, at various venues in the Netherlands.

The series will be played across multiple venues: on May 22, the games will be played in Hoofddorp at the Pioniers Ballpark; the Ballpark Neptunus in Rotterdam will host the two national teams on May 23; and the Knickenbockers Ballpark in Soest will be the venue for the last day of games.

The "May 2023 Friendship Series" serves as preparation for the Dutch team for the WBSC Women’s Softball World Cup Group Stage in Valencia, Spain.

The Netherlands qualified for the World Cup in July 2022 when they triumphed at the Women's Softball European Championship. Czechia ranked fourth at the same event.
