Egypt got to know baseball in 1889, when the Chicago White Stockings and the All-Americans played in front of the Giza Pyramids during Albert Spalding's goodwill world tour.

The Chicago White Sox would return to play an exhibition with the New York Giants in 1914.

The National Federation was founded in 2018 and approved as a WBSC Federation at the 2019 WBSC Congress in Sakai, Japan.
