The Little League Baseball World Series is a professional baseball tournament for children that is played annually in the Eastern United States. It is typically for boys of age 10 to 12 years. Every year, thousands of children take part in the series representing their communities with the aim to make a lifelong career in baseball.
The world series was founded back in 1947 and was known as the National Little League Tournament. Only United States teams competed during the initial days, but later, it gained popularity and became a worldwide tournament. This also resulted in the renaming of the series to Little League Baseball World Series. The series is one of the 12 tournaments that is sponsored by Little League International. Each of the tournaments brings together teams from different regions from all across the world.
