It's the dream of many. The opportunity of a lifetime to play baseball at the Little League World Series in Williamsport, PA.

With a little preparation; a week long trip to the Series and the Howard J. Lamade stadium in August can become a lifelong memory to the young and old alike.

Difficulty: Moderate
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    GET THERE:

    Plan ahead for available flights and/or driving directions to the Little League International complex. Accommodations book up fast and will also need to be made well in advance. See direct resources below for driving directions and airports.

  2. Step 2

    BE EARLY:

    Be early to get a seat. Because general stadium seating is limited and free; it is also first come, first serve. Stadium seating fills quickly, but all the games can also be watched from the terraced hillside which can make a pleasant day long event for families.

    Who knows? You may be the one to pick up a home run baseball !

  3. Step 3

    DRESS FOR THE WEATHER:

    Prepare accordingly for your week. Weather in August in PA can range from cool evenings to very hot days. Pack appropriate clothing for all types of weather. Umbrellas, outerwear, sunglasses, and blankets or chairs for the terraced hill seating are all recommended.

  4. Step 4

    FOLLOW THE RULES:

    The Little League World Series complex has rules to abide by if you want to stay and enjoy the games. Alcohol, tobacco, glass items, pets and several other items are not allowed on the stadium grounds. Be wise to the rules before you get there as random bag checks are routine.

Tips & Warnings
  • If you can't be there in person; ESPN, ESPN2, and ABC currently offer complete coverage.
  • If you didn't enter the lottery drawing for tickets to the World Series championship game; plan on terraced hillside seating.
