Tomorrow the U-18 Women’s Softball European Championship begins in Spain! The tournament runs from the 21st of July to the 26th. 17 countries will travel to three (Upna, Irabia, and Zaragoza) fields to face off across the 6 day tournament.
Ticket for the games include daily access for €5.90 (excluding Friday and Saturday) and €9.90 for daily access on Friday or Saturday (finals).
The defending champion, Czechia, headlines Poule X along with Great Britain, Israel, and the Netherlands. Poule Y includes Italy, France, Ireland, and Ukraine. These two groups are composed of the top teams from the previous edition and automatically advance to the second phase of the U-18 Women’s Softball European Championship 2025.
The remaining teams—Poland, Spain, and Sweden in Group A; Croatia, Germany, and Hungary in Group B; and Austria, Belgium, and Türkiye in Group C—will compete in a single round-robin. The winners of these three groups will qualify for the semifinal stage, joining the pre-seeded teams in Poules X and Y.
The semifinal round will also be played in a round-robin format, with the top six teams proceeding to Super Round Z. This will determine the finalists for the medal games. The bronze medal game is scheduled for Saturday, July 26, at 11:00, followed by the gold medal game at 18:00.
Placement Rounds will determine the final standings for all participating teams not advancing to the medal round.
The complete schedule can be found here.
In total, 66 games are scheduled throughout the championship.
