2023 Little League World Series results

Children's baseball tournament results

The results of the 2023 Little League World Series were determined between August 16 and August 27, 2023, in South Williamsport, Pennsylvania. Twenty teams were divided into two groups, one with ten teams from the United States and another with ten international teams, with both groups playing a modified double-elimination tournament. In each group, the last remaining undefeated team faced the last remaining team with one loss, with the winners of those games advancing to play for the Little League World Series championship.[1] California, the United States champions, defeated Curaçao, the international champions, 6–5 to win the 2023 championship.
