The games will be held at the Pan American Stadium in Havana City, but the
hours and the assistance of public to them are still to be defined, CBF
officials said.

Puerto Rico is bringing in their roster some major leagues players,
according to reports.

They added this will be a great opportunity for the Cuban 38-man strong
pre-team that is training to attend the World Championship and Pan
American Games, scheduled for Panama and Guadalajara, Mexico in October,
respectively.
 
According to Coach Alfonso Urquiola, the Cubans are carrying out
satisfactorily their training in the Pan American Stadium.

Their goal this year is to recover the world crown that has been elusive
to them in the last two championships, in Taipei 2007 and Europe 2009.

In the World Championship, Cuba will play in Group 2 along South Korea,
Australia, Venezuela, Italy, the Dominican Republic, Nicaragua and Germany.
