Dimensions of regulation 12U Baseball World Cup ballparks (distance to the outfield fence, pitching mound, base paths, etc.) are significantly increased compared to local youth leagues, due to the superior nature and strength of the players involved.Because the 12U Baseball World Cup is considered a \"world championship\" event, the results of the tournaments have an impact on the IBAF World Rankings.The inaugural tournament took place in July 2011 and was won by its host Chinese Taipei.
