European Champions Cup (baseball)

The European Cup is a baseball competition held between the top teams of the professional baseball leagues of Europe. The first competition was held in 1963 and it has been held annually ever since.

Not since 1968 has any team playing outside the professional leagues of Italy or the Netherlands won the competition. Although a professional team from San Marino won the competition in 2006, they play in the Italian Serie A1.
