Little League Corporate Sponsors
For more than 50 years, Little League has partnered with at least one corporation on the national level to help defray the costs parents must pay associated with their children's participation in Little League.

Today, a select group of companies has earned the right to call themselves "Official Sponsors" of Little League Baseball. These companies have displayed a commitment to the children of Little League and to the ideal Little League hopes to instill in children around the world. Little League thanks each of these special companies, and congratulates them on their commitment to the world's youth.
