LL announces team hosts for 2025 LLWS
In coordination with the 66th National Little League Week celebration, the volunteer team hosts who will support all 20 participating teams at the 2025 Little League World Series in South Williamsport have officially been matched with their teams via a random drawing as part of a Team Host Celebration.
The primary focus of the Little League Baseball World Series is placed squarely on the experience of the players from the 20 teams that come to South Williamsport, and it is up to the volunteer team hosts and utility hosts to make sure those players have a Little League experience that lasts a lifetime.
These Team Hosts are responsible for ensuring that each team is on time for games and practices, arranging their team’s uniform fittings, helping with the coordination of the media activities, and making sure that many other daily tasks go smoothly for the players, coaches, and managers.
