In 2009, Europe hosted the IBAF World Cup, the first time in history the Baseball World Cup was not hosted by a specific country. Prague hosted Group A of the pool round, and the Czech Republic team finished 20th, going 0–3 with losses to Australia, Mexico, and Chinese Taipei.[citation needed]

European Baseball Championship

[edit]

Team Czech Republic competed at the 2019 European Baseball Championship, and came in fifth, behind Team Israel. Among the players who competed for it were Martin Červenka and Marek Minařík.[3]

Olympic qualifying tournament

[edit]

Because Team Czech Republic finished in the top five in the 2019 European Baseball Championship, it moved on to the 2020 Olympics qualifiers in Italy in September 2019.[4][5] There, it came in third, behind Israel and the Netherlands. Finished 3rd behind the Netherlands and Italy in 2003 for the Athens 2004 games.
