The Mister Baseball website has revealed the format and the schedule for next summer’s European Championship in Germany, in which the Great Britain baseball team will defend its 2007 silver medal. Britain will be matched up with Spain and Italy in its first-round group. Spain won the bronze medal in the most recent European Championship in 2007 while Italy – despite finishing seventh in the most recent Euros – has traditionally dominated European baseball along with the Netherlands. Sweden (6th in 2007), Croatia (8th) and Greece (did not participate) make up the rest of Britain’s group.
