World University Baseball Championship


The World University Baseball Championship is an under-23 international college baseball competition sponsored by the International University Sports Federation and was first held in 2002 in Italy. Until 2013, it was sanctioned by the then-International Baseball Federation and was one of several tournaments considered by the IBAF to be a minor world championship, and as such the results of the tournaments affected the IBAF World Rankings. For its men's world rankings, the World Baseball Softball Confederation -- successor to the IBAF—now uses the results of WBSC's biennial 23U Baseball World Cup.
