Little League International has announced tentative plans to return to traditional Little League World Series activities, including all seven Series events and their respective regional tournaments complemented by full fan opportunities.

“…We are thrilled to welcome back fans and international teams…this summer. We are anticipating a more exciting tournament than ever,” said Stephen D. Keener, Little League president and CEO.

Though hopes are high for now, Little League officials will remain wary of COVID-19 and corresponding state and locally mandated precautions, said Kevin Fountain, senior director of communications.

“Little League International continues to monitor the coronavirus pandemic and any potential impact it may have on the protocols surrounding the participants of its events,” Fountain said.
