Host Campidonico Grizzlies from Serie A, the Piemonte U18 All-Stars, and two teams from Lombardy will challenge the Italian National U15 baseball squad in the Campidonico Western Teen Cup in Torino from June 21-23, 2021. Team Italy U15 manager Roberto De Franceschi has selected 25 players to participate in the competition after getting a good look at 40 young and promising prospects recently during the Alpe Adria tournament.
