Previous Little League World Series winners list by years, teams and cities, history.
The Little League Baseball World Series' origin can be traced back to 1947 in Williamsport, Pennsylvania.
The first home of the Little League Baseball World Series was Original Field at Memorial Park in Williamsport and the 12 participants in 1947, with the exception of one New Jersey team, were all from Pennsylvania.
The winner of the first LLBWS was the Maynard Midget League of Williamsport, which defeated the Lock Haven All Stars in the final game, 16-7.
Now, the LLBWS is a 20-team (10 from the United States, 10 from other regions of the world) global youth baseball double-elimination tournament played at the Little League World Series Complex in South Williamsport, Pennsylvania.
The complex has been the home of the LLBWS since 1959 and features two baseball stadiums (Volunteer Stadium and Howard J. Lamade Stadium) and the World of Little League Museum.
Little League baseball players from around the world dream of ending the summer winning the LLBWS championship in Williamsport and here’s what to know about the countries and cities that have won a Little League Baseball World Series title.
Little League World Series: Who won the 2025 LLWS tournament?
For the first time in nearly three decades, Chinese Taipei is back on top of the Little League world. Behind a dazzling performance from 12-year-old ace Lin Chin-Tse, the team defeated Nevada 7-0 on Sunday to capture the 2025 Little League World Series championship.
The Chinese Victory snapped a 29-year title drought for Chinese Taipei, which last won in 1996. Despite the gap, the team still holds the second-most championships in tournament history with 18—trailing only the United States. Their golden era included a remarkable streak of five straight titles from 1977 to 1981.
