The Little League® International Tournament is a unique and special opportunity for Little Leaguers® to make fun and impactful memories, as each league’s baseball and softball teams come together to represent its community.

• This year, the tournament entry fee for teams at the Little League, Intermediate (50/70), Junior League, and Senior League divisions of play will be $300. The Tournament Entry Fee for the 8- to 10-Year-Old and 9- to 11-Year-Old divisions is $150. As a reminder, 100% of the funds raised through these fees are used to help offset the direct financial assistance that Little League International gives to leagues for teams advancing to Region and World Series tournaments. It's also important to note that any mileage reimbursement for these levels of play will only be available for teams advancing to Region Tournaments.

• All leagues that have an outstanding balance of $250 or greater will not be able to enroll in the 2024 Little League International tournament. Your league may experience restrictions with tournament eligibility and be unable to enroll until the league’s insurance is paid and in effect. Visit the Little League Data Center to review this information.

• The Little League® Diamond Leader Program has brought a heightened level of education to nearly 100,000 local volunteers already and remains a requirement for all tournament coaches and managers to complete. As a reminder, completion of this course is only needed to be done one time and is not required to be renewed annually.

• The easiest first step in planning and preparing for administrating and operating the upcoming tournament season, is to complete the Tournament Prep Course, available for both League Officials and District Administrators, at LittleLeague.org/Training.

The Tournament Resources page at LittleLeague.org/Tournament is up to date for the 2024 tournament season and will continue to be the best place for tips, resources, and information all summer long. You are strongly encouraged to review this material prior to the first tournament games.
