The German Baseball and Softball Federation (DBV) and the German Baseball Academy (DBA) announced on Wednesday the extension of its cooperation in the development of German baseball.
The DBA continues to be in charge of the U15 National Team, which resulted in the first ever European Title for the DBV this summer. Additionally the cooperation now also includes the U12 national team program. 2016 will be the first time that Germany will bring a national team to the U12 European Championship.
The DBA is led by Georg Bull, who got inducted into the German Baseball and Softball Hall of Fame this summer. The main goal of the cooperation between DBV and DBA is the development of German baseball players and bring them to the top level in European and international baseball.
