  • 2024 Men and Women Points values and rankings accurate as of 12-31-2024
  • 2023 Men and Women Points values and rankings accurate as of 12-31-2023
  • Data sheet includes only those countries with organized World Baseball teams. Baseball is also played on an amateur/local level in additional countries not listed here.
  • “Points Earned” refers only to the points earned during the designated calendar year.
  • “Total Points” varies by league. For the Women’s League, it is the cumulative number of points earned in all years to date. However, the Men’s league applies a more complex methodology, so a country’s Total Points are rarely equal to the sum of each year’s Points Earned.
  • Details on methodologies used for both the Men’s league and the Women’s league are courtesy of the The World Baseball Softball Confederation.
