The 2024 WBSC Premier12 is the 3rd edition of the WBSC Premier12, a baseball championship featuring the 12 highest-ranked national teams in the world, held by the World Baseball Softball Confederation (WBSC). Originally scheduled for 2023, but delayed due to COVID-19, the championship will be held from November 9 to 24, 2024, in Japan, Mexico, and Taiwan.[1]

Japan are the defending champions.

Teams

The 12 highest-ranked national teams qualified to participate in the 2024 WBSC Premier 12, based on the WBSC World Rankings, as of 18 December 2023. On 20 December, the 12 teams were confirmed, with the only difference from 2019 was Canada being replaced by debutants Panama.[2][3] The WBSC had originally wanted to expand this edition but due to COVID-19, halted the plans for a future edition.[4]

Rosters

Main article: 2024 WBSC Premier12 rosters

Participating nations had to submit their final 28-man rosters no later than 10 October 2024. WBSC rules require teams to carry at least 13 pitchers and two catchers in their squads.[6]

Format

The format will undergo a slightly different format compared to 2019.

Opening Round

The tournament begins with two groups of six teams each playing in the 12-team Opening Round. Each team played five games, in a round robin format against each other in the group. The top two teams from each group advanced to the Super Round.

Super Round

The four remaining teams who advanced to the Super Round, will travel to Japan where they will play against the top two teams that advanced from the other group.

After completion, the teams who finish first and second will play the gold medal match, while the teams placed third and fourth will play for bronze.

Venues

Six stadiums are to be used during the tournament. Japanese cities, Nagoya and Tokyo plus the Taiwanese capital, Taipei, were confirmed as host cities on 11 September 2023, while an unknown country from the Americas would host the event too.[7] That unknown country would turn out to be Mexico, with venues in Guadalajara and Tepic being chosen to host a Opening Round group on 4 April 2024.[8]
