Join us, on June 10, 2025 at 6 pm, for an evening hosted by the Embassy of the Czech Republic and American Friends of the Czech Republic (AFoCR) as we honor the remarkable rise of the Czech National Baseball Team—a true story of heart, hustle, and international acclaim.
Despite being a team of dedicated amateurs juggling day jobs and dreams, the Czech squad stunned the baseball world with their performance on the global stage. Their inspiring journey earned headlines in major outlets, including The New York Times, and captured the imagination of fans worldwide.
This special celebration will bring together members of the Czech National Baseball Team, special guests from Major League Baseball and leaders in sports diplomacy, the diplomatic corps, and the Czech-American community.
Enjoy engaging conversations, light cocktails, and an opportunity to reflect on what lies ahead for the team—and the broader impact of sports as a bridge between nations.
This evening will also mark a personal milestone for one of our key hosts, Jan Woska, the Cultural Attache, who will bid farewell to Washington after six years of dedicated service in U.S.-Czech relations.
We look forward to seeing you there and celebrating this incredible Czech-American sports story!
