The Great Britain Slowpitch programme is proud to confirm the Men’s and Coed squads selected to represent GB at the 2026 European Slowpitch Championships this summer.
The Men’s team will travel to Borgerhout, Belgium (24–27 June 2026), while the Coed team will compete on home soil at Farnham Park, Slough (14–18 July 2026).
Following a winter training programme in Coventry, ongoing evaluation, and the final selection event at the GB Challenge on 19th April, Head Coach Dan Spinks highlighted the strength and depth within the programme:
“We’ve been fortunate to work with a large and talented squad, and the attitude, ability and improvement across the group have been a pleasure to observe.
The coaching staff discussed many of the attributes necessary for taking on the other slowpitch nations in both Men’s and Coed. The decisions were very tough to make as the talent available to us is deep, and naturally some disappointment was going to occur with players very close to being included in our squads.
The coaching staff are extremely excited to announce our official tournament team selections. They represent the very best of British Slowpitch and I have no doubt these players as a group will perform and produce high-level Slowpitch for Europe to enjoy.”
With the Coed European Championships returning to the UK for the first time since 2008—having first been hosted here in 1998—the programme is looking forward to strong home support. A huge congratulations to all players selected to represent Great Britain at the 2026 European Championships.
