The Baseball5 Pan American Championship is the main Baseball5 tournament in the Americas, governed by WBSC Americas. The top three teams qualify to the Baseball5 World Cup.
Mexico, a member of WBSC Americas, hosted the 2022 Baseball5 World Cup, the inaugural tournament of the Baseball5 World Cup. Since there was no qualifying event for the Americas, Cuba and Venezuela were invited by the World Baseball Softball Confederation to join Mexico in the championship as the three teams representing the Americas.[1]
The inaugural Baseball5 Pan American Championship was contested from 27 to 30 June 2024 in the Domo Bolivariano in Barquisimeto, Venezuela with four teams taking part: hosts Venezuela, Cuba, Mexico and Puerto Rico, who made its international debut in Baseball5 competition.[2] [3]
Cuba won the 2024 Baseball5 Pan American Championship undefeated, with a 6–0 opening round record, and beating Mexico 2 sets to 0 in the final. Venezuela, that lost the semifinals against Mexico, was awarded the bronze medal. The three teams qualified for the 2024 Baseball5 World Cup in Hong Kong.[4] [5]
