Team hosts or “uncles” and “aunts,” as they are commonly called, are dedicated volunteers who play a major role in every player’s Little League World Series experience.
Each team is assigned two team hosts who take on various responsibilities, from arranging uniform fittings, to getting teams to practice sites, to helping in the coordination of the many media activities involving the teams. These volunteers spend every day of the world Series with their assigned team from breakfast until well into the night, providing guidance and assistance to the players, coaches and managers.
