How do teams get to the little league World Series?
You get to the World Series by being the division champion. To get this, you have to win the most games in your division. Three teams get to the play offs. There is also a Wild Card in which the team with most wins in the league besides the division champion gets to be. The Wild Card also gets to go to the play offs. At the play offs, the eight teams verse each other in a first-to-win-three games series. The winner gets to go to the league championship series where there is a first-to-win-four games series. The winner of that gets to go to the World Series.
