(Press Release; WBSC-AMÉRICAS BASEBALL).- Barquisimeto will be the host city for the Pan American tournament, qualifying for the Baseball5 World Cup, which will take place from June 26-30.
Four countries will compete for three spots in the World Cup to be held in Hong Kong, in five days of intense competition, in one of the fastest growing categories in the sport.
Mexico, Puerto Rico and Cuba will be, along with Venezuela, the countries that will play for one of three places to travel to Hong Kong and compete for that trophy that the Cubans won in Mexico in 2022.
Venezuela finished fourth in that tournament, with Japan and Chinese Taipei completing the podium, now in Hong Kong they will seek to lift the trophy for America for consecutive tournaments.
The Baseball World Cup5 in Hong Kong is scheduled to take place from October 7-12, so the Pan American is an excellent opportunity to not only qualify for the event, but do so as the best in America.
