What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

South Williamsport is the sport's spiritual home for youth baseball, hosting the tournament every year since the mid-twentieth century at a purpose-built stadium complex, Lamade Stadium, whose grassy hillside berm overlooking the outfield has become one of the most recognizable settings in amateur sports

02

The mystery stays covered

Players stay together in an on-site dormitory complex rather than hotels, an arrangement unique among major youth sporting events, and the tournament's blend of genuine international competition, network television coverage, and small-town Pennsylvania setting gives it a character unlike any other amateur baseball event in the country
