Editor’s note: Follow USA TODAY’s live coverage of Little League World Series Aug. 19 games here.

The 2026 Little League World Series set to begin as the best 12-and-under baseball players from around the world compete in Williamsport, Pennsylvania over the next two weeks.

The action starts with four pool-play games on Monday, Aug. 19, two involving teams from the United States and two featuring international teams. The four-game format continues from there as the 20 participating teams are eventually whittled down to a United States champion and an International champion.

The field is divided into United States and International brackets of 10 teams each, creating two separate races to the spots in the overall championship game on Sunday, Aug. 30. Teams compete in a modified double-elimination format until the championship game of each bracket, which is single-elimination.

Little League has provided a printable World Series bracket that you can download from its link below and fill in the 2026 results as the tournament progresses to a champion.

Which countries get automatic/direct bids into the Little League Baseball World Series?

Little League separates certain countries into those that get an automatic/direct entry into the Little League World Series and those that are part of a rotating selection. The countries with permanent automatic bids are Australia, Canada, Japan and Mexico. The countries that participate in a rotating selection are Cuba, Curacao, Panama and Puerto Rico. For the 2026 Little League World Series, Little League International announced earlier this year that the champions from Panama and Curacao will have direct entry into this year's event in Williamsport, Pennsylvania. That means Cuba and Puerto Rico competed in one of the international regions for a chance to make it to the LLWS.
