The Little League World Series consists of 20 teams in total: 10 teams from the United States and 10 teams from international regions. These teams compete in separate brackets, with the winners of each bracket playing for the championship. This format has been in place since the expansion in 2022, where the U.S. bracket features 10 regional champions and the international bracket features 10 teams from various international regions, including automatic bids for Panama and Puerto Rico on a rotating basis.
