The French Baseball and Softball Federation (FFBS) and
the agglomeration of Val d’Europe have reached an agreement to build an
international baseball and softball facility as part of a bigger sports
cluster.
The facility includes baseball and softball stadiums
as well as two competition fields. Additionally training facilities,
administrative premises, shops and the FFBS headquarters will be set up there.
Called the Val d’Europe National Center will have the
capacity to host Olympic baseball and softball events or regular season games
of Major League Baseball. It will also serve as national training center for
the FFBS.
The Val d’Europe National Center will be inspired by
the Hoofddorp Pioniers facility in the Netherlands, which hosted the 2016
European Championship.
No time frame was announced how quickly the facility
will be build.
