A couple of months ago it was announced that the 28th edition of the Haarlem Baseball Week in 2016 would be the last. But since then the Royal Dutch Baseball and Softball Association (KNBSB) and a couple of baseball supporters have tried to find the financing to re-organize the Haarlem Baseball Week in 2018. This goal seemingly has been successful, as organizers announced that the 28th Haarlem Baseball Week would start on July 13 or 14, 2018 and would be played until July 22.
