Little League® European tournament season underway

The 2023 Little League® European tournament season is starting this week with the 50/70 Intermediate tournament for boys, being played in Jablonec and Nisou, Czech Republic.

As with all the seven Little League® European tournaments, the winner will advance – all expenses paid by Little League® – to the Little League World Series tournament in the United States.

The crown jewel of the Little League® tournament season is of course the famous Little League Baseball World Series, played every year in Williamsport Pennsylvania, with live broadcasts of all games on ESPN and ABC. 

But this year, a total of 337 games from all the seven Little League® tournaments for both baseball and softball are being broadcast on the ESPN platforms in 2023 – and the Little League Softball final from Greenville, SC, will also be broadcast live on ABC just like the boy’s final from Williamsport.
