Team Italy U13 softball head coach Maria Grazia Barberis will be assisted by coaches Emilia Ammirato, Chiara Romei, Morena Bertoldi, Sabrina Gabelli, Flavia Ciliberto and Gianni Gabri as well as delegation manager Gianfranco Casano.
Team Italy will face GB Cubs, Israel Sabras and Joudrs Praga Orange in the Sport Division, while in the Future Division the second Team Italy squad will compete against Seleccion Navarra, Softball Club Princ and Joudrs Praga Navy.
