Little League Baseball

Touching millions of families RE/MAX International and its thousands of affiliates, including all associates of RE/MAX Right Choice, are proud to be the official real estate partner of Little League Baseball in both the United States and Canada. For more than 65 years, Little League programs have engrained values like courage, loyalty, character and sportsmanship into young people’s lives. Numerous Little League programs offer a variety of youth participation – tee ball, baseball, softball and more.

At its core, the purpose of Little League is to provide a safe, fun, wholesome combination of recreation and competition to players ages 5-18 through regular season play among local teams. For those players whose skills are more advanced, the Little League International Tournament provides the largest sports tournament in the world, with more than 40,000 games played each summer on the road to the various World Series tournaments. 

Little League leaves no one out – it has a Challenger Division for physically and mentally challenged players, giving every child a chance to be a Little Leaguer. The Little League Urban Initiative is a vigorous attempt to provide access to the benefits of the program to boys and girls within urban communities. 

Little League offers a variety of easy-to-implement programs for local leagues that help keep children safe, and make the game more fun for everyone: A Safety Awareness Program (ASAP), and the Little League Manager/Coach Education Program, just to name two. The innovative Little League Child Protection Program was the first for any national youth sports organization (and remains the ONLY national youth baseball/softball organization) mandating background checks on managers, coaches and other key volunteers. But it doesn’t stop with a mandate. Little League provides leagues with advice on how to perform the checks simply, and affordably. 

The words “Little League” have symbolized the very best in youth sports for more than six decades. Little League is played in more than 70 countries, and all 50 U.S. states. 

A true World Series is played in four divisions of baseball and four divisions of softball, with four other tournaments advancing to state level. And, making it to the granddaddy of all youth sports world championships, the Little League Baseball World Series in Williamsport, Pennsylvania, happens for 16 communities around the world each year.

In 1989, the team from Trumbull captured the Little League Baseball World Series. What a proud and exciting time it was for all of Trumbull, as well as the rest of Connecticut. A number of current associates of RE/MAX Right Choice were with the team back then either as players, coaches or team “moms.” Many others made the trip from Trumbull to Williamsport to see the championship game. And how the players were cheered and honored when they returned home World Champions! It was spectacular. 

Little League Baseball, founded in 1939 in Williamsport, Penn., is the world’s largest youth sports program, with more than 2.8 million children and 1 million volunteers. More than 30 million people have played in Little League programs.

Much of the sponsorship money RE/MAX provides will help keep fees low for families with children who want to play baseball. No child is turned away because of a family’s inability to pay fees and every child plays in every game. The emphasis is placed on developing teamwork, sportsmanship and leadership, all while having fun.

Little League fits RE/MAX like a glove. Its associates have been involved with Little League teams for years as volunteers, coaches and parents. Now as official sponsors, the company has stepped up to the plate and looks forward to a long-term relationship with this outstanding organization.
