Little League is a youth baseball and softball organization founded in 1939. It provides children ages 4 to 16 the opportunity to learn and play the game in a structured environment. Teams are typically organized by age and skill level, allowing players to develop their abilities while fostering teamwork and sportsmanship. Games are played in local communities, and the organization emphasizes fun, participation, and fair play. Little League also hosts regional and international tournaments, culminating in the annual Little League World Series, where top teams compete for the championship title.
