The 2024 Little League World Series is here! The 38-game double-elimination tournament begins Wednesday, and though the bracket can be daunting to read we’ve got you covered.
Twenty teams — 10 from the United States and 10 from the rest of the world — will grace the field at Volunteer Stadium and Lamade Stadium in Williamsport, Pa. this week.
The 11-day event concludes with the championship game on Aug. 25. When it’s over, one team will be able to call itself Little League World Champions. Each day will feature two games on the international circuit and two games in the United States pool until the semifinals.

Staten Islanders will have an extra rooting interest this year as South Shore Little League’s 12-year-old baseball squad has reached the World Series.
Manager Bob Laterza’s boys punched their ticket on Friday by beating previously unbeaten Morristown, New Jersey, 5-0, in the Metro Region championship game in Bristol, Connecticut.
South Shore, which is led by ace hurler Stephen Grippo and big hitters Vin Ruggiero, Peter Giaccio Jake Romero and a cast of others, opens World Series play against Mountain Region champion Paseo Verde Little League of Henderson, Nevada, on Thursday, Aug. 15 at 3 p.m.
Paseo Verde advanced to the World Series with a 2-0 win over Dixie (Utah) in Friday’s Mountain Region championship game, behind Wyatt Erickson’s no-hitter.
South Shore may see Erickson in the opener and it should be a great game with Grippo on the mound for the Staten Island squad.
