It was founded in 1939 in Williamsport, Pennsylvania when a $35 donation was enough to buy uniforms for 3 teams. Start at ""About Us"" for the history of Little League, or ""Players"" for current news and a ten-question Little League trivia quiz.

History of the World Series
"In 1903, the established National League and fledgling American League agreed to put two years of bickering and player raiding behind them. The Pittsburgh Pirates and the Boston Pilgrims staged a best-of-nine postseason playoff for the World Championship. "Perhaps the main thing about the 1903 Series, though, was that it at least cooled tempers between baseball’s warring factions. That the upstart American League buried the hatchet squarely in the back of the haughty National League -- and did so with fiendish delight -- was merely a sidelight." "

Freddy Clean Penalty Kick Game
"The German cleaning company Karcher, who for fifty years has been developing new ways to tackle dirt, provides this online "football" game in support of their national passion. This simple game can be enjoyed by even the youngest of clickers, as it consists only of clicking where you want the ball to land. A game consists of three rounds. I was able to beat the home team in the first two rounds, but I think the third round is fixed."

Fastball Arcade
"Hit a home run at Coors Field, home of the Colorado Rockies, and watch the fountains erupt. Swing your bat by clicking above the home plate. Experiment with your cursor position to find the sweet spot. For the youngest baseball fans, there is Dinger’s Virtual Catch. Catch as many of the falling balls as you can in thirty seconds. But get hit by a falling bat or glove, and you’ll lose points.<!--"

Excite Sports: Tennis
"For fast access to tennis news, I like Excite’s straight-forward, low-graphics approach. While many of the other tennis news sites were cluttered with non-tennis links, Excite’s tennis headlines, scores, rankings and features are easy to find and easy to access. In addition to current events, you’ll also find stats and historical data. Did you know that Billie Jean King’s first Wimbledon title was in 1966 and her last was in 1975? Or that Pete Sampras’ year-to-date earnings of $1.4 million places him behind Gustavo Kuerten (of Brazil) in tennis winnings this year?"
