History
The Russian national baseball team has never won a championship. Their head coach is Vladimir Timakov. The team was formed in 1987.
After the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the World Baseball Softball Confederation banned Russian athletes and officials. In addition, WBSC Europe relocated competitions that had been scheduled to be held in Russia during 2022, and excluded Russian teams from all its competitions for both national and club teams to be held in Europe in 2022.
