Well, they are the Under 14 Israel National Baseball team, and they came in 7th place out of 16.

But that is quite an accomplishment coming from a country with almost no baseball culture, or knowledge of the sport. Last year the young Israel National Team won the European championship in the C division, so this year’s team competed in the 2015 European B Division.

Here are some of the Israeli players with the opposing Ukrainian team.

Quite an accomplishment for these boys, to play in an European championship, against Ukraine, in Prague – and on Yom Hashoah.

Kol hakavod to the team and their families.

The Israeli Under 14 National Baseball team once again wins for representing Israel so well!

I lived in the United States, Canada and Australia before moving to Israel in the midst of the Second Lebanon War. For the last ten years, walking the streets of Jerusalem, the scenes I saw every day did not resemble the ones familiar in the Western media. Now I try to share those positive images with the world, what is really happening in Jerusalem, Israel, The Real Jerusalem Streets
