The 2009 World Port Tournament is an international baseball competition held at the DOOR Neptunus Familiestadion in Rotterdam, The Netherlands from July 2–12, 2009. It was the 12th edition of the tournament and featured teams from Chinese Taipei, Cuba, Japan and the Netherlands. Originally, USA Baseball would send an All-Star team from the Great South League, but due to missing papers, the team had to withdraw from the tournament, one day before starting. The organization of the tournament decided that the four teams would meet each other a third time in the tournament.
