Qualification for the 2021 Little League World Series took place across eight United States regions. The first regional tournament began on August 5 and the final tournament concluded on August 14. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic , Little League Baseball made the decision to hold the tournament without teams from outside of the United States for the first time since 1975 . Instead, the top two teams from each U.S. region qualified for the final tournament.[ 1] In all, 53 teams were invited to the regional tournaments; two from California, two from Texas, one each from the other 48 states, and one from the District of Columbia.
The tournament took place in Whitestown, Indiana ,[ 2] during August 8–14.[ 3] On August 11, the team from Kentucky was removed from tournament play due to having at least one positive COVID-19 test.[ 4]
