The Dutch men's gymnastics team scored 242.995 points in qualification at the World Championships in Rotterdam. That put them seventh and into the team final, where the eight best national teams compete.

Olympic team champions Japan qualified first with 254.529 points.

The Dutch team is Jermain Grünberg from Tilburg, Elijah Faverus, Amine Abaidi, Loran de Munck and Casimir Schmidt.

The only other time the Dutch men reached a World Championships team final was in 2018 in Doha. Schmidt was in that team too, alongside Epke Zonderland, Frank Rijken, Bram Louwije and Bart Deurloo.
